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

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

For most people, a visit to Dr. Gryszko and our dental hygienist every six months is recommended. This allows us to remove tartar buildup that brushing 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.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Your oral health is significantly connected to your overall well-being. Chronic gum inflammation, or periodontitis, has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care is crucial for maintaining optimal oral health and, by extension, good overall health.

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. They are a powerful preventive tool, particularly for children and teenagers, as they seal out food and plaque, preventing cavities from forming in the deep grooves of the teeth.

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. Gryszko to see issues like cavities, bone loss, and impacted teeth that aren't visible otherwise, enabling early intervention and better treatment outcomes.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Gryszko can help with mild to moderate sleep apnea. For some patients, she can create a custom-fitted oral appliance to keep the airway open during sleep, providing a comfortable alternative to CPAP. We will discuss if you are a candidate for this treatment.

What is TMJ disorder?

TMJ disorder is a condition affecting the jaw joint and muscles that control jaw movement. Common symptoms include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, and headaches. Dr. Gryszko can help diagnose the issue and recommend treatments like a custom nightguard to prevent damage from grinding.

What is a root canal and why is it needed?

A root canal is a procedure to save a badly infected or damaged tooth. It involves removing the inflamed pulp, cleaning the inside of the tooth, and sealing it. This treatment relieves pain and prevents the need for tooth extraction.
