Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
What information should I provide during a dental emergency call?
When reporting an emergency, please have the following information readily available: your symptoms, where and how much pain, most recent trauma or injury, bleeding, swelling, or visibility of trauma to a tooth. Notify us, also, if you have a follow-up medical condition or are on medication. This allows us to set priority and get you in for an appointment.
Is your dental clinic open on weekends?
Yes, we do offer weekend appointments if that works better for you. Our Saturday clinic hours and after-hours scheduling are designed to meet busy schedules and allow you to get the care you need when you need it.
What are my options if I have a missing tooth?
There are several effective options for replacing a missing tooth, including dental implants, bridges, and partial dentures. We’ll assess your needs, oral health, and preferences to recommend the best solution for restoring your smile and bite function.
Can a dentist do a root canal in one visit?
Yes, for most cases, it is highly possible to have a root canal treatment in one visit due to advances in technology today. Infected or complicated cases can also be treated during a return visit to obtain the full cleaning and sealing.
Is it possible to get veneers on one tooth?
Yes. You can fix a single tooth with veneers to shape, color, or improve its appearance. To repair a chip or for the purpose of alignment, a single veneer will blend in with your other natural teeth.
How can I improve my oral hygiene routine?
To help maintain your oral health in good shape, brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss every day, rinse with mouthwash as directed, and limit between-meals sweets and acids. Cleanings and checkups are key to maximum oral health.
How can I maintain my oral health during pregnancy?
While pregnant, brush and floss frequently, consume a healthy diet, and see your dentist. Let your dental team know you’re pregnant—then they’ll modify your care and offer advice on coping with changes like morning sickness or gum sensitivity.
What should I expect during my first dental appointment with dentist near me?
Your first visit is a complete dental checkup, X-rays if necessary, and arranging for your oral desire. We will check your teeth, gums, and bites and recommend future care tailored to you.
