Has it been a while since you’ve visited a dentist for professional care? Perhaps you have been receiving care for quite some time but you have never stopped to consider what we offer during a preventive care visit. Regardless of your current oral health (or the last time you received a checkup and cleaning), we invite you to become more familiar with the preventive visit – it’s something everyone needs to schedule once every six months for a healthy smile and fresh breath.
Are Dentures Right For Me?
Is your life focus currently set on determining which tooth replacement solution is best for you? If so, learning more about the benefits and details associated with full and partial dentures is certainly an important stop during your smile completion journey. The good news is that dentures work for just about every single patient suffering from tooth loss, so you can wipe away any fears associated with candidacy. As for the specifics, we invite you to learn some essential facts for a clearer idea of whether these prosthetics are right for your smile goals.
Partial Dentures: A Quiz
If you are quite familiar with full dentures, we invite you to learn about partial dentures. These dental prosthetics restore partial tooth loss, rather than the complete tooth loss addressed by their full counterparts. In some instances, the details associated with partials are quite intuitive – after all, they are called “partials” and address an arch suffering from partial tooth loss. Curious how much you know for sure – and how much you’ve been assuming? Discover more about your current level of knowledge with an informative quiz.
Dental Extractions: True Or False Quiz
Unless you’re receiving an extraction to make additional room for orthodontic treatment, your tooth needs to go to protect your smile. In some cases, a dental extraction protects your oral health by removing a source of infection or discomfort – in others, it’s a preventive option to keep a wisdom tooth from harming your already existing smile. While you may have already developed a reasonable understanding about why you need tooth removal, you may find you would like to ask additional questions regarding other aspects of this treatment. Rest assured, we are ready to provide you with answers. In the meantime, see how much you know with a quick quiz.
Dental Bridges: Are They Right For You?
Beginning your journey into the world of dental prosthetics can feel like taking a single step into some seriously murky waters. The information is all there but wading through the details can cause you to feel overwhelmed. The good news is that when you narrow down your search and focus on a single tooth replacement solution, it becomes much easier to decide whether the treatment is right for you – or not quite right. For instance, if you are thinking about replacing teeth with a dental bridge, you can quickly learn about candidacy, so you can say, “yes!” and move forward with treatment … or simply move onto a solution better suited to your needs.
Rumors And Facts: Root Canal Therapy
If ever there were a single dental treatment that was regarded with the greatest disdain for absolutely no solid reason – it would be the root canal. There are so many rumors about this restorative treatment that the myths often keep patients from receiving the care they need to address tooth infections, which are serious problems. The bad news is that we know many patients are unsure how to separate rumor from fact. The good news is that we are here to set you straight, so you can feel optimistic about scheduling your root canal treatment, rather than worried or unsure.
Advantages Of Dental Crowns
When you learn that you require restorative care, you will likely find yourself quite focused on details regarding what to expect from the treatment and why we have chosen the particular service recommended for your needs. Then, once those questions have been answered, you may find that something interesting happens. For example, if you require a dental crown – and you feel confident about this selected treatment – you may actually become excited about your upcoming visit as you learn about the advantages. Lucky for you, as is true of all restorations, crowns offer a broad spectrum of benefits.
Tired Of Receiving Fillings? We Can Help.
Have you been dealing with cavities since you were a kid? Perhaps you began your experience with tooth decay as an adult. Whatever the case, many patients ask us what they can do to avoid ever requiring another filling. While a dental filling is a comfortable, efficient treatment that will beautifully restore your tooth, being able to avoid restorative care altogether is always preferable. Ready for some exceptional news? Avoiding the need for future fillings isn’t rocket science! You just need to become better acquainted with the steps required for establishing and maintaining clean, strong, plaque-free teeth and you’ll be on right track.
Q&A: Restorative Dentistry
Chances are good that you don’t have extensive knowledge regarding restorative dentistry. You may, on the other hand, know quite a lot about daily dental hygiene and preventive care because it’s something that you practice every single day. The good news is that when something goes wrong – even if you don’t know which treatment you need – we are prepared to examine your smile, identify the problem, and begin providing treatment. This will help you get back the oral health, function, and beauty your smile originally enjoyed. Learn a bit more about this beneficial area of dental care, so you know what you can expect.
Common Questions About Veneers
Are you well versed in veneers? For instance, do you know what to do to keep your porcelain veneers in excellent condition once they have been placed? Are you certain about whether or not you qualify as a candidate for this cosmetic treatment? While you may know a lot about the benefits, which include exceptional camouflaging and completely customized design, you may require a bit more knowledge in other areas. Begin by considering common questions (and answers) to set you on track – and remember to schedule a visit, so we can provide you with a personalized cosmetic care plan.
