Questions
Why is regular teeth cleaning important?
Professional cleanings remove plaque buildup that brushing alone can't eliminate, preventing tooth decay and gum disease while maintaining overall oral health.
Does the dentist check for oral cancer?
Yes, we perform oral cancer screenings during routine exams, which is crucial for early detection with 80-90% cure rates when caught early.
Is fluoride safe for dental health?
Fluoride is beneficial in appropriate amounts, strengthening tooth enamel and preventing decay, but excessive exposure should be avoided.
What causes tooth sensitivity to ice chewing?
Chewing ice can damage tooth enamel through thermal expansion and physical force, potentially leading to cracks or fractures in dental structures.
How do soft drinks affect dental health?
Sugary and acidic beverages soften enamel, increasing cavity risk. The acid content makes teeth more susceptible to decay and erosion.
What treatments address nighttime teeth grinding?
We recommend custom night guards and oral appliances to protect teeth from bruxism damage while addressing potential jaw joint complications.
