How often should I visit the dentist?

Regular checkups—typically twice a year (every 3 to 6 months)—are recommended to prevent dental issues and maintain oral health.

What should I expect during my first visit?

Your first appointment usually includes an in-depth exam, X-rays, and a periodontal check-up. The dentist and hygienist will evaluate your oral health and discuss any needed treatments.

Are professional teeth cleanings necessary?

Yes! Even with daily brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. Professional cleanings help prevent cavities and gum disease.

What if my gums bleed when I floss?

Bleeding gums can occur if you're new to flossing or have sensitive gums. It should diminish with daily flossing. However, persistent bleeding might indicate gum disease. Please schedule a visit to our clinic if it continues.

Can you remove stubborn stains from my teeth?

Absolutely. Mild surface stains can often be polished away during a cleaning. For deeper stains, professional whitening treatments are recommended.

What should I do if I accidentally knock out a tooth?

Act quickly! Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently in milk or saline (avoid scrubbing), and attempt to reinsert it if possible. If not, store it in milk or saliva and see a dentist within 6 hours.

What treatments do you offer for missing teeth?

We provide tailored solutions such as dental implants, bridges, and partial dentures to restore your smile and oral function.

Can I get orthodontic treatment without traditional braces?

Yes—clear aligners offer an effective and discreet way to straighten teeth. We also provide comprehensive cosmetic dentistry options such as veneers, crowns, and smile designing.

Is dental X-ray safe?

Yes. Modern digital dental X-rays use very low radiation—comparable to a short flight—and are essential for spotting issues like cavities and jawbone problems that aren’t visible otherwise.
