  • Is a dental extraction very painful?

    If done correctly you will not feel anything. There can be some post-operative pain for a day or two that can be relieved with over-the-counter medications. Anything beyond that would be a good time to call your dentist. READ MORE

  • In a fall, my tooth broke off in half. How can this be fixed?

    This is a common occurrence especially with kids and teenager when playing sports. It is a true emergency because most people get embarrassed by the hole that is created and who wants to be seen like that? There is no simple answer. It depends on how hard to the tooth was hit, how much of the tooth broke off. Most of the time a white filling can be bonded to the tooth to make it look like a tooth again. The treatment is different when there is a lot of trauma to the tooth. The nerve could be damaged a root canal will have to be done to save the tooth and prevent an infection. READ MORE

  • Ibuprofen isn't working for toothache. What else should I do?

In the meantime, there are stronger pain medications. Also, you could have an infection that is causing the pain. Your dentist may prescribe an antibiotic for you that could help. READ MORE
