General Dental Questions:
It is recommended to schedule a dental check-up and cleaning every six months to maintain optimal oral health.
Regular cleanings help remove plaque and tartar, preventing gum disease and cavities. They also contribute to a brighter smile and fresher breath.
Brush your teeth twice a day, floss daily, and use mouthwash. Additionally, maintain a balanced diet and limit sugary snacks.
Contact our office immediately for guidance. Common emergencies include a knocked-out tooth, severe toothache, or injury to the mouth.
We offer professional in-office teeth whitening and take-home kits for a brighter, whiter smile.
Dental Implant Questions:
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They act as artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for crowns or dentures.
Most individuals with good overall health and sufficient bone density are eligible for dental implants. A thorough examination by our dentists will determine your candidacy.
The timeline varies but typically involves an initial consultation, implant placement surgery, and a healing period. The entire process may take several months.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential for long-term success.
