What is the downside of dental implants?
Dental implants have become a great option to replace teeth in many patients. Keep in mind though that even implants can fail especially if done by inexperienced practitioners and /or with cheaper implants. This would not be the place to cut corners or price shop. READ MORE
What will happen if a cavity is left untreated?
Every untreated cavity will eventually progress to need a root canal or tooth loss. READ MORE
How do I know if I have an infection after tooth extraction?
It is possible to have pain for a couple of days after an extraction. If, however, you feel swollen and/or feel heat in the area, I might think infection. It is best to contact the doctor who did the procedure. READ MORE
Will cavities require root canals if left untreated?
They will progress to need root canals or lost teeth. The only way to avoid that possibility is to have the fillings done. READ MORE
What can I do with my broken molar?
Absolutely visit a dentist. A broken tooth can often lead to tooth loss if not treated. READ MORE
Can a small crack in my tooth heal on its own?
Unfortunately the enamel in teeth does not repair itself and left untreated may lead to further damage. If it is a small crack it might be possible for a dentist to seal the crack with a resin. READ MORE
Does a root canal take longer to heal for a diabetic?
Diabetes does affect all types of healing, however with the proper technique any difference relating to a root canal should be at most minimal READ MORE
Is the yellow tinge on my teeth caused by smoking permanent?
In most cases smoking stains on teeth can be professionally removed READ MORE
What causes erosion of teeth?
There are many factors that can lead to erosion. Brushing with a hard bristled brush, an acidic diet and or sugary diet, along with acid re-flux can all be contributing factors. READ MORE
Do I need braces to get rid of the gap in my teeth?
Depending on the size of the gap, it may be able to be closed with either bonding or porcelain laminates. A judgement would have to be made as to whether the teeth would look too big if done in one of these ways. An alternative to traditional braces would be to use clear aligner therapy which may be your best option. READ MORE
What foods should I eat after going to the dentist?
It is always a good idea to wait until any numbness is completely gone before eating. After that, assuming you are not in the middle of treatment, enjoy. READ MORE
Why is my face swollen after a root canal treatment?
Your face should not be swollen 3 days after a root canal. I advise giving the treating dentist a call. READ MORE
What are my options for replacing a missing tooth?
There are 3 ways to replace a missing tooth, 1- removable partial denture, 2- fixed bridge, 3- implant. All have pros and cons and are patient specific. READ MORE
What can be done for chipped tooth?
This would depend on the severity of the chip and your expectations of aesthetics and longevity. It may be simply filed if very small or perhaps bonded. READ MORE
Why does my dental filling keep coming off?
Fillings, if done correctly should not come out for many years. READ MORE
Is a root canal safe for a 3 year old?
It is safe and will have the benefit of maintaining the space needed for her permanent teeth. READ MORE
