Their FAQ

Answers from their website.

When should I bring my baby for their first dental appointment?

You should bring your baby for their first appointment shortly after their first baby teeth emerge. This lets us check their development to make sure their teeth are growing correctly. It also helps your baby get comfortable with going to the dentist and having their mouth examined.

Is it safe to put juice in a bottle or sippy cup?

Juice can be a nice treat for your child, but it can also cause tooth decay. If you do give your child juice, give them a bottle or cup of water as well. The water will help keep their mouth clean and prevent cavities.

When should I start brushing my baby’s teeth?

You can start cleaning your baby’s mouth and gums with a soft cloth or baby toothbrush as soon as they’re born. When they begin teething, you can start using a “smear” of baby toothpaste to clean their teeth. Once they have their baby teeth, you can start letting them brush their teeth themselves with your help.

What happens at my first cosmetic dentistry appointment?

At your first cosmetic dentistry appointment, you and your dentist will discuss your goals for your smile. The appointment can include a dental examination and x-rays of your teeth and mouth. Your dentist may provide you with a preview of your new smile, and it may be possible to provide you with temporary cosmetic restorations to let you see how the cosmetic enhancements will look in your mouth.

How do I take care of veneers and crowns?

You brush and floss your veneers or crowns just as you would your natural teeth. This helps prevent staining and it protects your teeth from decay and gum infection.

Should I get veneers or cosmetic crowns?

Veneers and crowns have their own advantages and disadvantages. In general, crowns are used to replace an entire tooth, and veneers are used to change the appearance of the front of a tooth. Your dentist will be able to guide you through the decision and provide the pros and cons of each option.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Dental implants work for most patients. To see if you’re a candidate we can assess your overall dental health, the health of your jawbones, and what type of restorations you may need. In some cases, we may need to augment your bone to provide enough support for the implant.

I’m missing multiple teeth; can I get an implant?

Implant-supported bridges and dentures can be an excellent solution for patients who are missing multiple teeth. We can help you understand your options.
