      • Bite Plate: Proactively address potential jaw or teeth problems with a bite plate; it helps improve the alignment of your bite and reduce strain on the jaw muscles.
      • Endodontic Treatment: By addressing infected or damaged tooth pulp early through endodontic treatment, you're preventing the need for extractions and preserving the integrity of your natural smile.
      • Dental Prophylaxis, Adult: Invest in your long-term oral health with a dental prophylaxis: a professional cleaning that helps identify and address potential issues before they become major problems.

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

      How often should I visit the dentist for a check-up and cleaning?
      Dr. Peter DDS recommends seeing a dentist and dental hygienist every six months for check-ups and cleanings. This helps prevent tartar buildup, catch cavities early, and screen for gum disease and oral cancer.
      Why are routine dental cleanings so important for prevention?
      Even with diligent brushing and flossing, plaque can harden into tartar (calculus), which only a professional cleaning can remove. This is crucial for preventing cavities and, more importantly, gum disease, which has been linked to other health problems, including heart disease.
      How is oral health connected to my overall health?
      Your oral health is intricately linked to your overall well-being. Chronic gum inflammation (periodontitis) has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care, including regular checkups and cleanings, is essential for maintaining optimal oral and overall health.
      How can I whiten my teeth safely?
      The safest and most effective way to whiten your teeth is under professional supervision. Dr. Peter DDS can assess your oral health to ensure you are a good candidate and offer professional-grade treatments, like custom trays or in-office procedures, that provide better and safer results than over-the-counter products.
      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, while crowns are "caps" that cover the entire tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength after significant damage or decay.
      What causes tooth sensitivity?
      Tooth sensitivity can arise from various factors, including worn enamel, receding gums exposing the tooth root, and tiny cracks in the teeth. A proper diagnosis by Dr. Peter DDS is necessary to pinpoint the cause and recommend the most effective treatment, such as desensitizing toothpaste or in-office procedures.
      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. Peter DDS to see issues like cavities between teeth, bone loss, and impacted teeth that aren't visible, enabling early intervention and better oral health.
      When should my child first see a dentist?
      Dr. Peter 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.
