Does taking calcium help dental bone graft?
In the healthy individual the use of supplements becomes of less value, actually most is filtered in the appropriate ways and eliminated. There is confirmed research that Calcium is absorbed and deposited on/in bone and by deduction strengthens bone. The body regulates this however and more is not always good. Vit. D is required to aid in the absorption of calcium READ MORE
Tonsillitis

How do you remove a tight partial denture?

Is the surgery for receding gums successful?
This is a tough one because recession can be a result of many different conditions. More often the heavy forces of clenching / grinding result in recession and the success of surgery is supported by clenching management (appliance therapy / splint use / Night Guard use etc.) A misaligned tooth getting traumatized might need orthodontic alignment as part of surgical tissue care. Overall periodontal surgery for recession has never been more successful! READ MORE

Do your gums shrink if you don't wear your dentures?
Without teeth to retain the bone the gum tissue can change in many different ways, not wearing the denture allows these changes to occur freely and adjustments to the denture becomes more frequent. Like boots, comfort and function comes with use and adaptation. READ MORE
What sedation is used for a root canal?
Root Canal treatment is routinely carried out with the use of profound local anesthetic (numbing). If an infection is present it’s usually best to reduce it before treatment using antibiotics. This helps the anesthetic work better. If anxiety prevents this approach then conscious sedation can be employed (either by pill or IV ) . Most patients find the procedure boring and uneventful and sleep and all confirm that the thought of it was by far worse than the actual treatment! READ MORE
How long does the pain last after a root canal procedure?
It can vary according to how severe the condition was when treated, if the tooth was shortened to prevent constant contact and your general health. Generally there may be 2-3 days of tenderness afterward which should be effectively managed with anti inflammatories like Tylenol or Ibuprophen. READ MORE

Braces shouldn’t get in the way of a great time at your party…and congratulations! READ MORE

Veneers are considered safe to teeth and to general health. Veneers are not usually expected to provide extra strength to teeth, rather are meant to provide ideal cosmetic outcomes READ MORE
