Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Preventive Dental care with Dr. Emily DMD:

How often should I visit the dentist for a check-up and cleaning?

We recommend visiting Dr. Emily DMD and our dental hygienists every six months for a check-up and cleaning. This helps remove tartar buildup that brushing alone can't, catch cavities early, and screen for gum disease and oral cancer.

Why are routine dental cleanings so important for prevention?

Even with excellent brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar that only a professional cleaning can remove. This is crucial for preventing cavities and, more importantly, gum disease, which is linked to other health problems like heart disease.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Your oral health is deeply connected to your overall well-being. Chronic gum inflammation, or periodontitis, is linked to an increased risk of serious health problems like heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular preventive dental care is crucial for maintaining a healthy mouth and, consequently, a healthy body.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Emily DMD can help some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. We can create a custom-fitted oral appliance worn at night to keep the airway open, offering a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP for eligible patients.

Are dental X-rays safe, and why do I need them?

Yes, modern digital dental X-rays use extremely low levels of radiation and are very safe. They allow Dr. Emily DMD to see issues like cavities, bone loss, and impacted teeth that aren't visible otherwise, enabling early intervention and better preventative care.

What causes tooth sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can be caused by worn enamel, receding gums exposing the tooth root, or tiny cracks in the teeth. A proper diagnosis by Dr. Emily DMD is needed to determine the specific cause and recommend the most effective treatment, such as desensitizing toothpaste or in-office procedures.

What are veneers and how are they different from crowns?

Veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of teeth to improve their appearance. Crowns, on the other hand, are caps that cover the entire tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength after significant damage or decay.

What are dental sealants, and who should get them?

Dental sealants are a thin, protective plastic coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars). They are a powerful preventive tool, primarily for children and teenagers, that seal out food and plaque to prevent cavities from forming in the deep grooves of the teeth.
