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

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

For most people, a visit to Dr. Regueiro and our dental hygienists every six months is recommended. This allows us to remove tartar buildup that brushing can't, detect 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, 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 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 is essential for maintaining optimal body 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 your teeth is damaged, potentially leading to tooth loss.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Regueiro can help some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. For these patients, a custom-fitted oral appliance worn at night can keep the airway open, offering a comfortable alternative to CPAP. We will discuss your specific needs during your consultation.

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, especially for children and teenagers, sealing out food and plaque to prevent cavities from forming in the deep grooves of the teeth.

What is TMJ disorder?

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. Regueiro can help diagnose the issue and recommend treatments, such as a custom nightguard to prevent damage from teeth grinding.

What causes tooth sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can arise from various factors, including worn enamel, receding gums exposing the tooth root, or tiny cracks in the tooth structure. A proper diagnosis by Dr. Yasel Regueiro is essential to determine the specific cause and recommend appropriate treatments, such as desensitizing toothpaste or in-office procedures.
