• Dentofacial Anomalies: Dentofacial anomalies can affect how your teeth and jaw fit together, impacting chewing, speaking, and even your overall facial appearance; proactive care is key to preventing long-term issues.

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

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

For most people, a visit to Dr. Kyrollos Raghib and our dental hygienists every six months is recommended. This schedule helps remove tartar buildup, which 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 home care, plaque hardens into tartar that only a professional cleaning can remove. This is crucial for preventing cavities and, importantly, gum disease, which is linked to other health problems like heart disease.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Oral health is intrinsically linked to overall health. Chronic gum inflammation, or periodontitis, is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care is essential for maintaining optimal body health.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Kyrollos Raghib can help some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. For these patients, a custom-fitted oral appliance worn at night can help keep the airway open, offering a comfortable alternative to CPAP. We will work with you to determine if this is an appropriate treatment option.

What causes tooth sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can be caused by worn enamel, receding gums exposing the tooth root, or tiny cracks in the tooth. A proper diagnosis by Dr. Kyrollos Raghib is needed to determine the specific cause and recommend effective treatments, 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.

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. Kyrollos Raghib to see issues like cavities, bone loss, and impacted teeth that aren't visible otherwise, enabling early intervention and better oral health.

What is the difference between gingivitis and periodontitis?

Gingivitis is an early, reversible stage of gum disease, characterized by red, swollen gums that may bleed easily. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more serious stage where the bone supporting the teeth is damaged, potentially leading to tooth loss.
