Dr. Bridget Singratanakul's Expert Contributions
Can I get a root canal without anesthesia?
I would not recommend trying that. The anesthesia directly numbs the nerve which will be amputated and cleaned out with the root canal READ MORE
Can you get partial dentures for front teeth?
yes. Partial dentures can replace almost any teeth READ MORE
Can I brush my Invisalign with toothpaste?
short answer is yes. It may cause light scratches in the plastic which can attract more plaque and stain, but you will be switching to new trays at least every 2 wks. The best thing to do is soak them in a retainer cleaner to remove the debri and then wash them under warm water and brush them with no paste. READ MORE
Can I treat gingivitis myself?
Yes. Gingivits is inflammation of the gums from and acute bacterial infection. The bacteria is somewhat superficial and can cause irritation to the gums such as swelling and bleeding. 2 wks of increased hygiene with a focus on daily flossing and antibacterial rinses can improve early infection. If left untreated for long, it can lead to bone loss called periodontitis. This usually needs to be treated by a dental professional. READ MORE
What type of denture is supported by implants?
There are a few different options when it comes to implant supported prosthesis. You can have what is called a fixed prosthesis, which means that it has to be unscrew to remove them and it is usually done at the dental office. A fixed prosthesis can be made out of denture acrylic, also known as a hybrid denture (most common) or a full bridge made out of porcelain. The removable type would be called an implant overdenture. It is essentially a full denture that snaps into the implants and can be taken in and out at home. READ MORE
Do you need a root canal for a crown?
A root canal is not always needed with a crown. On the other hand, If a root canal is needed, a crown is indicated to help protect and reinforce the remaining tooth structure. READ MORE
What type of crown lasts the longest?
All crowns should last about 20 years if the patient takes care of their teeth properly and follows recommended maintenance schedules. Gold crowns set the highest standards due to their antibacterial properties. It is the only crown material that can possibly fight cavity causing bacteria and it also tends to be the thinnest material we can provide. So gold crowns are the gold standard. READ MORE
Can you put a crown on a tooth without a root canal?
A root canal is not always needed with a crown. On the other hand, If a root canal is needed, a crown is indicated to help protect and reinforce the remaining tooth structure. READ MORE
Can I brush my teeth with a temporary crown?
Yes please attempt good oral hygiene around a temporary crown. The temporary tends to attract more plaque because of its rougher texture. This bacteria and plaque accumulation is not friendly to your gums and can cause bleeding and swelling. This can also make it very difficult to cement your final crown READ MORE
What happens if you get a cavity under a filling?
the cavity is essentially breaking down your natural tooth and causing tooth rot. The filling can come loose or break out as the decay softens all the teeth around the filling. The cavity tends to make its way to the center of the tooth where the nerves are. This is when patients tend to feel pain. READ MORE
How can I fix a gap in my front teeth without braces?
We offer clear aligners and many dentist and orthodontist have that option now as opposed to traditional metal braces READ MORE
Can I drink water after a deep cleaning?
Yes, please stay hydrated to aid in faster recovery READ MORE
Which is better for overbite braces or Invisalign?
I prefer traditional metal braces to fix bite issues. This is because metal braces are working 24/7 to move teeth, where as invisalign is only working around 22 hrs and is subjective to how disciplined the patient is as changing the aligners at home. Metal also moves back teeth more predictably, so in the case of an overbite, you need to be able to pull the lower jaw forward or move the upper teeth back which requires heavy forces to be placed on back teeth. READ MORE
What happens if you smoke after jaw surgery?
you have higher risk of post surgery complications such as infection, dry socket, slow or poor quality healing READ MORE
Can I pull a broken tooth out myself?
sure why not, anything is possible, but it may not be very comfortable and you may also increase the risk of infection without proper sterilized instruments. The dentist can numb you which would make less painful to not painful at all and can possibly remove it in 10-15 minutes with a lower risk of infection. READ MORE
Are ceramic implants better than titanium?
This is not a straight forward answer as there are pros and cons to using both and it dependant on each patients situation. Titanium is gold standard and preferred by most dentist because of its strength, longevity and compatibility with the body. In some rare cases where people have a titanium or metal allergy, we may consider using ceramic. Ceramic has a higher fracture risk and is more expensive. READ MORE
Can I use rubber bands to close my gap?
Please do not attempt DIY orthodontics. It can cause irreversible damage such as bone loss, gum disease. It can affect the ligaments around the teeth and cause your teeth to loosen up. You also do not want to keep non FDA or ADA approved materials in your mouth long term because it can make you sick READ MORE
Do white fillings get stained?
white fillings can loose its color and appear more yellow. staining usually occurs around the edges of the filling when there is break down of the material or bonding that is holding it in. READ MORE
How long does it take your gums to heal after a deep cleaning?
It depends on how invasive your deep cleaning was. The deeper and larger the tarter is, the more sore you will be. If you use proper hygiene to keep the food out as well as medicated mouth rinses as directed, your gums can feel normal within a day. If soreness continues, then a bacterial infection may be present. READ MORE
What's the difference between teeth whitening and bleaching?
They are interchangeable terminology. Both mean whitening with either carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. READ MORE
