A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Janely DDS provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Mouth Cancer: Regular self-exams and professional dental checkups can detect mouth cancer at its earliest stages, leading to more effective treatment and a higher chance of recovery.
• Gingival Fibromatosis - Growth Hormone Deficiency: Managing growth hormone deficiency may help prevent or lessen the severity of gingival fibromatosis, a condition causing excessive gum tissue growth, showcasing the interconnectedness of overall health and oral health.

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

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

At Dr. Janely DDS, we recommend visiting every six months for a check-up and cleaning. This allows our team to remove tartar buildup that brushing can't, identify 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, importantly, gum disease, which has links to other health problems like heart disease.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Oral health is intricately linked to overall health. Chronic gum inflammation (periodontitis) has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care, like regular checkups and cleanings, is essential for maintaining optimal body health.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

While Dr. Janely DDS is a dentist, not a sleep specialist, she can help some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. For eligible patients, she can create a custom-fitted oral appliance to keep the airway open during sleep, offering a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP.

When should my child first see a dentist?

Dr. Janely DDS recommends a child's first dental visit within six months of their first tooth erupting, or by their first birthday. This early visit is crucial for ensuring proper tooth development and establishing a positive dental home for future care.

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 is TMJ disorder?

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorder is a condition affecting the jaw joint and the muscles that control jaw movement. Common symptoms include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, and headaches. Dr. Janely DDS can help diagnose the issue and recommend treatments, such as a custom nightguard to prevent damage from teeth grinding.

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

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