Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I visit the dentist?

Most patients should visit the dentist every six months for routine cleanings and checkups. However, some patients with specific conditions may need more frequent visits. We'll recommend the appropriate schedule for your individual needs during your consultation.

Are dental X-rays safe?

Yes, dental X-rays are very safe. Modern digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays. The amount of radiation exposure is minimal and comparable to everyday background radiation. We only take X-rays when necessary for diagnosis and treatment.

What can I do about dental anxiety?

We understand dental anxiety is common and offer several solutions including sedation options, relaxation techniques, and a comfortable environment. Our team is trained to help anxious patients feel at ease. Please discuss your concerns with us so we can customize your care.

How can I prevent cavities?

Cavity prevention involves good oral hygiene (brushing twice daily, flossing), limiting sugary foods and drinks, using fluoride toothpaste, and regular dental visits. We may also recommend dental sealants and professional fluoride treatments for additional protection.

What should I do in a dental emergency?

For dental emergencies, contact our office immediately. We provide same-day emergency care for severe pain, trauma, or infections. For after-hours emergencies, our answering service will connect you with the on-call dentist who can provide guidance and arrange urgent care.
