Can a 12-year-old get Invisalign?
Sure, there is a special kind of Invisalign for teenagers that works with how they are expected to grow. As a general dentist, I refer these adolescent cases to an orthodontist for specialist care from a provider who treats growing teenagers all the time. There may be a general dentist in your area who offers adolescent Invisalign but I would encourage you to see an orthodontist for the best result. READ MORE
Can a tooth get infected under a bridge?
Yes, unfortunately a tooth can become infected under a bridge. If the tooth is savable, this would mean it needs a root canal. If there is also decay under the bridge, the entire bridge would need to be replaced. If there is no decay, your dentist or a specialist may be able to perform the root canal through the current bridge. Best of luck! READ MORE
Can I drive after dental implant procedure?
Yes, local anesthetic alone is not sedating so you will be fine to drive. If you were undergoing some type of sedation beyond nitrous oxide, then you would need a driver. From what information you have given, though, you will be just fine. Best of luck to you and enjoy your new implant! READ MORE
