Is surgery the only option for treating TMJ?
Thank you for your question. Surgery is not the only option. There are occlusal guards, bite splints, even Botox injections. Bite splints can reposition the jaw into a more favorable position, and Botox injections can help with muscle tension relief in that area. These can alleviate some TMJ disorder symptoms. I would definitely recommend seeing a TMJ specialist for non-invasive treatment options before deciding on surgery. READ MORE
How effective are fillings for baby teeth?
Yes, a tooth filling on a baby tooth that has cavities is very important and effective. The sensitivity is most probably due to a cavity (bacteria) that has infiltrated the tooth structure, and removal of this bacteria followed by a filling is the best tx option. READ MORE
Are there any natural remedies for dry mouth?
Biotene over-the-counter mouth rinse is specifically a rinse to alleviate dry mouth symptoms. Please do have your mother try that. READ MORE
Does a root canal take longer to heal for a diabetic?
Usually when we talk about post op dental healing in diabetics, oral surgery procedures come to mind (extractions, implant placement, periodontal surgery, bone grafting procedures). As far as root canals are concerned, healing may still be within an average period of time. READ MORE
My son's teeth are discoloured. Why?
Discolored teeth could be due to several reasons. In young children, it could be congenitally weak enamel (hypocalcified enamel), staining from multivitamin intake (ie with iron), or even cavities. Please do take your child to a dentist/pediatric dentist for proper evaluation and diagnosis. READ MORE
Do teeth get affected during pregnancy?
Gingivitis or inflammation of gums during pregnancy is common. You may notice more bleeding around the gums. Getting regular dental cleanings during pregnancy and after delivery is very important, as is proper brushing and daily flossing. Build up of bacteria in general causes cavities and weakened tooth structure so eliminating bacteria thoroughly on a daily basis and maintenance with regular dental visits is key to preventing dental issues during pregnancy.

How should I select my toothpaste?
I agree, too many choices and in all honesty, i cant really say one is superior to another. My favorite go-to toothpaste is Tom’s. Its all natural, no colors or additives. I recommend Fluoride toothpastes-helps remineralize weak areas in the enamel READ MORE
Are electric toothbrushes any better for the teeth?
Yes, I believe they are. Sometimes with manual toothbrushes, we tend to aggressively brush which overtime can lead to gum trauma and recession. With the electric toothbrush there is more control, and you just let the spinning bristles do their thing, with no pressure on your part READ MORE

My daughter is 10 years old and has never done well going to a dentist. We were refereed to Dr.Sayeed by a friend and my daughter loves her. The staff is very caring, helpful and devoted to making your child comfortable. We have found our forever dentist!

- Sara
Everything went well. Everything was ready didn't have to wait. Loved the service!!!
- Mustafa
The doctor was very nice as well as all the other staff here. I had fillings and deep cleaning both the sessions were comfortable and painless. So far I haven't been to a dentist who works this fast and makes it this painless. Also when I arrived on time I didn't have to wait at all. The nurse came for me right away.
- Rania
This place is pretty chill. I needed my permanent retainer cemented because the glue came off and they fit me in with a 4 hour notice on the same day and were nice about it. They sweet and professional at the same time and straight up about their prices which awesome because I was out of pocket. The dentist was straight forward, sweet, and helpful, and the dental assistant (I think that's what she's called?) and the front desk lady were both super sweet and nice!!! Makes for a great overall experience. I don't have a dentist in the area so I am probably gonna make them my primary dental office. Thanks for a great service!
