Can you suggest some way to reduce sensitivity?
Use an extra soft toothbrush and don't brush too hard. Ask your dentist to write you a prescription for Prevident 5000 Sensitive. It contains 5 times the amount of fluoride that you can buy in a store. READ MORE
Do I have to be numb?
Every patient is different. As you get older, the nerves within your teeth shrink and often become less sensitive. For smaller fillings, some patients may be comfortable without anesthesia. If you prefer to try a procedure without anesthesia, you can always raise your hand if you begin to feel things and the dentist could give you anesthesia at that time. READ MORE
The dentist has recommended my son’s tooth extraction. Is it the right way to go?
It is difficult to say without seeing the x Ray. If the teeth are very broken down and can not be restored, then you have no choice. Extracting them may delay the eruption of the permanent teeth but it not affect their appearance. If they are repairable, it would probably be less traumatic to fix them. READ MORE
Do dentists offer services to the uninsured?
Dentists definitely offer services to uninsured patients. Fewer than 50% of my patients have insurance. Most dentists, including myself offer some form of financing for larger treatment plans. READ MORE
Adult tooth is loose. What should I do?
You should see a dentist ASAP. The longer you wait, the greater chance you will have of loosing the tooth. READ MORE
Wisdom teeth removal
A general dentist can remove any tooth that he/she is comfortable with. Some GP dentists refer all wisdom teeth while others refer very few. Wisdom teeth that are unerupted are considered impacted and are usually more difficult to extract. They are the teeth that are most often referred to an oral surgeon. READ MORE
