Frequently Asked Questions

Oral Hygiene & Check ups

We recommend a check up and clean every six months. If you have gum disease or a higher risk of decay, more frequent visits may be suggested.

Look for bleeding, swollen gums, chronic bad breath, or sensitive areas. Preventing it means brushing twice daily with fluoride, flossing, and regular professional cleanings.

Brush for two minutes, twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, eat a balanced diet, and visit us regularly.

Common Dental Treatments

Dental implants are secure replacements that function like tooth roots. You’re likely a candidate if you’re healthy and have sufficient jawbone—in-depth scans help us confirm suitability.

Cosmetic dentistry enhances the appearance of your smile. Treatments include whitening, veneers, crowns, orthodontics, and smile makeovers.

Patient Comfort & Anxiety

We focus on your comfort—gentle numbing, clear explanations, and a calm atmosphere help reduce anxiety for most patients.

Emergency Procedures

Rinse gently with warm water, take an over-the-counter pain reliever, and contact us immediately so we can assess and treat you.

Handle it by the crown, rinse it gently, store it in milk, and come in within 30 minutes — we may still be able to save it.

At-Home Maintenance

Brushing removes surface plaque; flossing cleans between teeth. Brush gently for two minutes, twice daily, and floss once daily to maintain a healthy smile.
