Questions
Do baby teeth really matter since they fall out eventually?
Yes, baby teeth are crucial for chewing, speech development, self-esteem, and proper spacing for permanent teeth.
Is teeth whitening safe for enamel?
Teeth whitening is safe but may cause temporary sensitivity; it doesn't harm tooth enamel long-term.
What should I do if my tooth hurts after biting something hard?
Contact us immediately - you may have a cracked tooth or damaged periodontal ligament needing professional evaluation.
What causes gum recession and how serious is it?
Gum recession exposes root surfaces to decay and periodontal disease; causes include brushing habits, genetics, and hormonal changes.
Does tartar buildup mean I should brush harder?
No, tartar requires professional scaling; proper brushing technique and diet changes prevent future buildup.
What payment options do you offer?
We accept cash, checks, major credit cards, and offer CareCredit financing for dental treatments.
