A quick, in-office application of fluoride (varnish/gel/foam) that strengthens enamel, helps re-mineralize early weak spots, and lowers cavity risk, especially if you have dry mouth, gum recession, braces, or a history of decay.

Yes. The amount used is small and topical. Side effects are rare (temporary taste/film; mild nausea if swallowed). Dental-office fluoride does not cause fluorosis; that’s linked to long-term excessive ingestion while teeth are developing.

Typically every 3–12 months depending on your cavity risk. Aftercare: avoid eating/drinking for ~30 minutes; if a varnish was used, skip hot/sticky foods and wait 4–6 hours before brushing.

It’s the practice of keeping your teeth and gums healthy through regular cleanings, checkups, and home care. The goal is to remove plaque and tartar before they cause cavities, gum disease, or other oral health problems.

Most people benefit from professional cleanings every 6 months. However, if you’re prone to gum disease, buildup, or cavities, your dental hygienist may recommend visits every 3–4 months.

Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss once a day, limit sugary snacks/drinks, and replace your toothbrush every 3–4 months. These habits help keep your mouth clean between professional visits.

It can take a few weeks for your mouth, tongue, and cheeks to adjust. During this time, you may notice increased saliva, minor irritation, or difficulty speaking and eating—these usually improve with practice.

Yes, but start with soft foods cut into small pieces, chew slowly on both sides, and gradually reintroduce harder foods as you gain confidence. Avoid very sticky or extremely hard foods that could damage your dentures.

Rinse them after eating, brush daily with a soft denture brush (no abrasive toothpaste), and soak them overnight in a denture cleaning solution. Always handle them over a towel or sink filled with water to prevent breakage if dropped.

They’re artificial tooth roots, usually made of titanium, that are surgically placed into your jawbone to hold a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture securely in place.

Generally, people with healthy gums, enough bone to support the implant, and good overall health. Your dentist will evaluate if bone grafting or other prep work is needed.

With proper care, brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits—they can last decades, often a lifetime.

A tooth-colored resin is applied and shaped to repair chips, cracks, discoloration, or gaps, then hardened with a special light to bond it to the tooth.

Typically 3–10 years, depending on your oral habits and care. Avoid biting on hard objects to prevent chipping.

Yes. Unlike crowns or veneers, little to no enamel is removed, so the procedure can be reversed or redone.

Extractions are recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, damaged, infected, or causing crowding. In some cases, extractions prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment.

Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the procedure. Mild discomfort afterward is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication.

Most people recover within a few days. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions helps reduce swelling, prevent infection, and speed healing.

A sinus lift is a surgical procedure that adds bone to your upper jaw in the area of your molars and premolars by lifting the sinus membrane upward to make room for the bone graft.

It’s typically done when there isn’t enough bone height in the upper jaw for dental implants, often due to bone loss or naturally large sinuses.

Healing generally takes 4–9 months before dental implants can be placed, depending on your body’s healing ability and the amount of bone added.

It’s a treatment that removes infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth, cleans and disinfects the space, and seals it to prevent future infection.

Modern root canals are usually no more uncomfortable than getting a filling, thanks to local anesthesia. Post-treatment soreness is normal and temporary.

A root canal saves your natural tooth, helping maintain your bite, jawbone health, and natural appearance. Extraction may require more complex and costly replacements later.

A bite guard is a custom-fitted appliance worn over your teeth, typically at night, to protect against damage from teeth grinding (bruxism) or clenching.

They cushion and protect teeth from wear, reduce jaw muscle strain, and can help alleviate headaches or jaw pain caused by grinding.

Rinse it after each use, brush it gently with a soft toothbrush, and store it in its case. Avoid hot water, which can warp the material.

It’s a custom oral appliance that repositions your jaw and tongue to keep your airway open while you sleep, reducing snoring and symptoms of mild to moderate sleep apnea.

For many patients, they significantly reduce or eliminate snoring and improve breathing during sleep, especially when used consistently.

Yes, diagnosing sleep apnea requires a medical sleep study, and your dentist can work with your physician to ensure the device is the right treatment for you.
