Dr. Joseph Sarkissian D.D.S.'s Expert Contributions
  • How do you stop dental implants from getting infected?

    Proper dental hygiene just like your routine brushing and flossing, and a little more around implants. Infected implants are also due to the peri-implantitis very commonly found around titanium implants. Zirconia ceramic implants are much better in that respect. Taking regular vitamin C, D, and Coenzyme Q10 also helps gums. READ MORE

  • What happens if you leave a broken jaw untreated?

    Due to constant chewing muscle activity, the fragments will constantly move and may never heal and will eventually cause osteomyelitis, especially when the fracture runs through a tooth socket. Some fractures may heal, but will cause a deformity in the jaw and a change in the bite. READ MORE

  • How long do ceramic implants last?

    If conditions, surgical techniques, proper implant selection and size, follow-ups, oral hygiene, and bite relationships are right, they should last a lifetime. The same applies to titanium implants really. In contrast to titanium, however, ceramic has the added advantage of less risk for peri-implantitis. READ MORE

  • Should I brush my teeth after using whitening trays?

    You should brush your teeth at least 6 hours after whitening trays. The whitening procedure has an effect on enamel and may make it more porous, so when you brush right after, you may strip off some enamel. Waiting a few hours allows for the enamel to re-mineralize through saliva. READ MORE

  • Why is my toothache worse at night?

    The immune system and healing phase is elevated at night therefore all ailments are perceived more acutely nights. READ MORE

  • Are tooth implants safe?

  • Tooth infection

    The tooth may be cracked, and maybe extraction would be the best way to go. Unless there is a full-blown infection and swelling, one can extract as long as they are on antibiotics at the same time. READ MORE

  • Do I need a root canal if there's no pain?

    Sometimes the tooth may die and develop a lesion around the roots in the bone and still have no pain. If that lesion is visible in an Xray it has to receive a root canal immediately, as it indicates a gangrenous nerve. READ MORE

  • Does novocaine have any side effects?

    Novocaine is the old name erroneously given to describe all newer pain and nerve blockers at the dentist. It may have temporary side effects such as bruising of the area, palpitations or very rarely feeling like the flu for a day after, also very rarely an allergic reaction could occur. It is eventually detoxified by the tissue and liver just like any other drug. READ MORE

  • Is gum disease hereditary?

    Gum disease is certainly hereditary but it doesn’t mean you are doomed to suffer from it. You will be high risk, though, and you will need to be very vigilant in your oral hygiene, supplementation, immune support, and dental recall appointments. READ MORE
