I started my Invisalign treatment today, and the experience was incredibly smooth. Kayla guided me through each step, thoroughly explaining everything she was doing. I really appreciated her transparency and the way she kept me informed throughout the process. She provided not only the necessary details but also information I didn't even realize I needed. Kayla made me feel completely comfortable, and I left feeling confident in my treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I have a dental emergency?

+

If you have a dental emergency, contact our dentists immediately. Common emergencies include severe tooth pain, broken teeth or knocked-out teeth. Rinse your mouth with warm water, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and keep the affected area clean until you can be seen.

How often should I visit the dentist?

+

Most dentists recommend scheduling a checkup and cleaning every six months. Regular visits help prevent dental problems and allow early detection of issues such as cavities, gum disease or oral cancer. Your dentist may recommend more frequent visits if you have specific health concerns or treatment needs.

What causes tooth sensitivity?

+

Tooth sensitivity can result from worn enamel, exposed tooth roots, cavities or gum recession. It may cause discomfort when eating hot, cold, sweet or acidic foods. Using desensitizing toothpaste and maintaining good oral hygiene can help. Our dentists can recommend the best treatment based on the underlying cause.

Are dental X-rays safe?

+

Yes, dental X-rays are safe for both children and adults. They use minimal radiation and are an essential tool for detecting problems that cannot be seen with a visual exam alone. Protective measures like lead aprons and digital X-rays further reduce radiation exposure to ensure your safety during the procedure.
