  • Is bone grafting painful?

    There are quite a few ways to perform bone grafting. There are many different materials that can be used for bone grafting. The area that is bone grafted and the amount of bone needed also are a factor. In general, the site is anesthetized prior to surgery so there is no pain during the procedure, post-operative pain is related to the aforementioned factors. READ MORE

  • Can you be allergic to zirconia crowns?

    It is extremely rare. The only way to know for certain is to have the Zirconia material in contact with your skin (like a bracelet) for a few hours. If a rash or skin irritation occurs that would indicate an allergy. READ MORE

  • Can an infected dental implant be saved?

    Sometimes laser treatment can save an infected implant. READ MORE

  • How long do antibiotics take to work on tooth infection?

    It takes about 72 hours to reach full effective blood concentration of antibiotic to show results. READ MORE

  • What home remedy can I use to tighten my teeth?

    There is no safe home remedy to tighten teeth. If you are referring to bringing teeth closer together that would be accomplished through braces or clear aligners. READ MORE

  • How long can I wear a flipper tooth?

    A flipper is designed for short term use (months). I do have patients that have used a flipper for years but they are very careful and don't eat with it in place. READ MORE

  • Which type of crown is best for back teeth?

    Gold crowns are the best, they last the longest and bacteria are not attracted to them, plus they soft enough not to wear down the tooth it is paired with in the bite. Now that I have said that, most people do not get a gold crown due to cosmetics and cost. Zirconia crowns are cosmetic and have strength to last in molar areas, they are not indestructible and occassionaly I have seen one break. PFM (porcelain fused to metal) has a metal sub layer and porcelain baked one top (think porcelain coated sink), they have a long track record but can have porcelain chip off in molar areas and are very hard on a natural tooth paired in the bite with it. READ MORE

  • Is it too late to straighten my teeth?

    It is never too late to straighten your teeth. I have patients in late 50's and 60's that are in braces or Invisalign. READ MORE

  • What if there is not enough tooth for a crown?

    Usually extract remaining tooth and replace with implant, bridge, or partial. READ MORE

  • What to eat after getting fillings?

    Maintain a soft diet until anesthetics have worn off. Amalgam (silver) fillings need 24 hours to completely harden, Composite (white) fillings harden while in the office. READ MORE

  • Is it normal for gums to hurt after dental anesthesia?

    Yes gums can hurt following anesthetic, or due to the procedure itself. READ MORE

  • How long does a sealant procedure take?

    30 minutes but could be longer if difficult to isolate (keep saliva away). READ MORE

  • At what age do gums start to recede?

    There is no specific age when gums recede. Gums can recede for heavy handed brushing, inflammation, gum disease, heavy occlusion (bite), bruxzism (habit of grinding teeth in sleep). READ MORE

  • Can a zirconia crown break?

    Zirconia is a very strong material but it can break in rare occasions. READ MORE

  • How does the dentist treat sensitive teeth?

    Topical application of fluoride, home use of sensodyne toothpaste, checking for underlying problems (decay, failing restoration, pulpitis, bite issue). READ MORE

  • How does a dentist remove a broken tooth?

    There are many different situations that arise during an extraction. Does the tooth have a history of a root canal? Does the tooth have extensive decay? Does the tooth have an infection? How much residual tooth is present? Each situation poses different challenges for an extraction. In general, if an infection is present, the patient should be on an antibiotic at least 3 days prior to extraction, sometimes longer. If a tooth has minimal amount of structure above gum line or a history of root canal there is a high chance of a surgical extraction needed. OK... so let me just run through an average extraction. We utilize local anesthetic to numb the tooth and surrounding tissues. An instrument (periotome or periosteal elevator) is used to push gum tissue away from tooth. Another instrument (elevator) is used to apply pressure to lift tooth to begin detachment from the socket (bone). Lastly, a forcep is used to create a pattern of movement with the tooth that expands the socket (bone) to effectively remove the tooth. Hope this helps. READ MORE

  • How can I quickly close the gaps in my teeth?

    There are a few options to close gaps. First of all an exam and x-rays are needed to definitively provide diagnosis and treatment options. In general gaps can be closed with orthodontics which includes braces or Invisalign. Veneers which will cover the entire front surface of the teeth visible in your smile. Bonding can be performed which is white filling applied to sides of teeth to close gaps. Each option has pros and cons. Braces or Invisalign can take 1-2 years to complete and require your cooperation. As well as a retainer to be worn to keep your teeth in position after treatment is completed. Veneers require some tooth preparation which includes drilling the enamel surface off of the teeth which makes room for the veneer. Bonding is weaker in hold and overall strength, can stain over time and has a tendency to needs replacement in a few years. Cost for each option would require a consultation. In general Bonding is least expensive followed by orthodontics and most costly is veneers. READ MORE

  • Can I still use mouthwash with a temporary crown?

    Using mouthwash with a temporary crown is perfectly safe. You also can brush the way you normally would. The problem is flossing can cause a temp to come out. READ MORE

  • Can sinus infections cause tooth pain?

    A sinus infection can definitely cause tooth pain. Pressure develops in the sinus which rests on top of the tips of the roots of posterior teeth. Because nerve endings enter your teeth at the tips of the roots this area is compressed when sinus is inflamed due to infection or allergies and this can lead to tooth pain. You should also be aware that a tooth infection can travel to the sinus leading to an infection in the sinus. READ MORE

  • What is a bone graft?

    It is common practice to receive a bone graft in preparation for an implant. There are many types of bone grafts for various situations. In general a bone graft is performed to add bone to a deficient area or to help preserve or enhance the properties of existing bone. An implant needs adequate volume and quality of bone. Bone grafting can greatly increase the long term success of an implant. READ MORE
