FAQs
What ages do you treat?
We treat the whole family! From your child's first appointment through adulthood, we're here to provide dental care.
What age should my child get their first dental exam?
The American Dental Association recommends a child has his or her first dental appointment after the first tooth appears but no later than his or her first birthday. If a child learns good oral hygiene (brushing and flossing) at a young age, it sets the stage for a lifetime of good oral hygiene.
How do I know what type of dental care I need?
Schedule a consult and we'll do an exam and give you personalized recommendations.
I haven't been to the dentist in a long time, is that ok?
We're here to make you feel comfortable and ensure you're getting the best care possible. Don't let fear stop you from coming in. Our warm, compassionate staff will help you get on track to a healthy smile.
I have some tooth pain, is it serious?
We can't make a diagnosis without an exam. Call us for a consultation and we'll be able to assess what the issue is. The sooner you get treated, the sooner you'll feel better.
Why do you need my medical history?
A dentist cares about your overall health, not just your mouth. That’s why you’ll be asked questions regarding your entire medical history.
What conditions can be influenced by oral health?
Here are a few examples of the connection between your mouth and your health:
Pregnancy – Pregnancy causes an increase in your body’s blood flow, more acid in your mouth and an increase in your hormone levels. This can cause gingivitis (red, swollen gums), loose teeth, periodontitis, tooth decay and other issues. Some research even shows a relationship between gum disease and premature birth and low birthweight.
Heart disease – Left untreated, gum disease can cause inflammation and this has been linked to blockages of blood vessels, strokes and other heart conditions.
Diabetes – Those living with diabetes can be more likely to develop more severe gum problems. Plus, having diabetes can make you prone to more infections.
Rheumatoid arthritis – Research shows a link between patients with rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease. One study showed that nonsurgical treatments for gum disease resulted in improvements in RA symptoms.
