  • Fix That Chipped Tooth!

    If you have a tooth that has been chipped, it can lead to a number of issues that affect the look of your smile and even your overall dental health. Any time a tooth is damaged, aesthetics and health are often impacted. We always consider both of these factors at our Lansdale restorative...

  • Can I drink coffee after I whiten my teeth?

    You just came from a visit with Dr. Kaffey, and your teeth are gleaming from the Zoom® Whitening Treatment you just received. You have a hankering for a cup of coffee, but can you have it? It may seem like you have to avoid it altogether, but here’s what you can do to keep your teeth pearly...

  • Sleep Apnea - A Good Night's Sleep Could Save Your Life

    Sleep apnea is a disorder that causes an interruption in your breathing while you’re sleeping due to two possible problems. Either your brain isn’t signalling the muscles to breathe - called Central Sleep Apnea - or the soft palate and tongue in the throat relax and block the airway - known...

  • What type of dental implant is the best for front tooth?

    Thank you for your question and it is a good one. The answer is there is none. There is no implant system that is better or worse for front teeth. What is much more important to achieving an excellent outcome is the skill and experience of the dentists performing the procedures. Keep smiling. READ MORE

  • Which gel is best for mouth ulcers?

    In my experience, the over-the-counter mouth rinse Closys does a really good job to help soothe and heal mouth ulcers. Give it a try. READ MORE

  • Does bonding a chipped tooth hurt?

    That’s a good question but the answer is no. Depending on the size of the chip, a local anesthetic may not even be needed. You might not need a shot! Bonding is a very common and routinely done procedure. READ MORE

  • How long does dental implant recovery take?

    Recovery from dental implant surgery is generally uneventful and completed within a few days after the implant is placed. Most discomfort can be managed with motrin and Tylenol. Keep smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • When I tap on my root canal tooth it hurts. Is it normal?

    It is not uncommon for a tooth that had a root canal to be sore or tender for several weeks following the procedure. In some cases, the soreness can last for several months while the area around the tooth heals. I would suggest that if the tooth is still uncomfortable 4 weeks after the root canal was completed, you should contact the dentist who completed the procedure and have them conduct an examination. Keep Smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • How long does it take an infection to go away after tooth extraction?

    Once an infected tooth is removed and the patient is placed on appropriate antibiotics, the infection will normally clear in 1-2 weeks following the last dose of the antibiotic. If the patient is immunocompromised or has other underlying medical conditions, including diabetes, the infection will take longer to clear and may require additional antibiotics. I hope this helps. Keep Smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • Can you remove braces early?

    The simple answer is no. The amount of time to straighten your teeth will be determined by the orthodontist. Sometime treatment times are shorter than anticipated, but that is an exception to the rule. Keep Smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • What happens if you leave a toothache untreated?

    Depending on the cause of the toothache, you could up end up with an infection. Depending on where in your mouth this is, it could be VERY serious. Do not delay. Get your toothache looked at by a dentist. Keep Smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • How long should a dental implant hurt?

    It shouldn’t. Your implant needs to be evaluated. Keep Smiling, David M. Kaffey, DDS READ MORE

  • What goes on top of an implant?

    Many things can go on top of an implant. When a single tooth is being replaced, a specialized cap (or crown, they are the same thing) is placed. But implants can also be used to hold dentures (false teeth) in place. Watch this: https://www.lansdalecosmeticdentist.com/services/dental-implants/ Implants are large part of my dental practice.
