Dr. Jenifer C Back DMD's Expert Contributions
Can you whiten teeth with thin enamel?
Teeth with thin enamel are usually translucent, and grey or lavender in appearance. These types of teeth can be whitened but they will remain translucent. Frequently, translucency is treated with veneers that create that a brighter and more opaque look. READ MORE

Can a dry socket heal on its own?
Yes, it takes time. It can take a few weeks, but it will heal and fill in. I recommend tylenol, motrin, or naproxen for discomfort. READ MORE

I am a diabetic and my gums have been bleeding. Is there something to be concerned about?
Bleeding gums are important and require attention at anytime, but especially if you have diabetes. Uncontrolled diabetes and periodontal or gum disease are closely related.

How can I stop pushing on my front teeth when I swallow?
That is a great question. What you are describing is officially called a tongue thrust. There are devices that orthodontists can cement on your teeth and in the roof of your mouth to retrain this type of swallowing. Also speech therapists can assist in retraining this behavior. The older you are the more complex it is. But, if you can create improvement it is worth it. This type of force is very destructive on teeth, bone, and gums. READ MORE
