Is sedation dentistry worth it?

If you struggle with dental-related anxiety, you may avoid visiting your dentist, even if you’re experiencing abnormal symptoms like tooth pain or gum inflammation. In cases like this, sedation dentistry is well worth it. Even milder forms like nitrous oxide can help you stay calm and comfortable in the treatment chair, ensuring you get the essential dental care you need in a stress-free environment.

Why does my child need regular checkups and cleanings?

Many parents wonder why biannual checkups and cleanings are important for their child. After all, aren’t their baby teeth just going to fall out in a few months or years anyway? While the appearance of their adult teeth is certainly a milestone, it’s vital that their baby teeth are cared for as well. There are a few reasons for this. First, their primary teeth help them chew effectively, speak clearly, and smile confidently. Second, they serve as placeholders for their permanent teeth. Since visits to our office every six months ensure that we can screen for decay while also preventing oral health issues from developing in the first place, their dental checkups and cleanings are essential.

Am I “too old” to get braces?

If you didn’t get braces as a child, don’t worry – you’re not “too old” now! Whether you’re 25, 45, or 65, you deserve a smile that is as healthy and functional as it is beautiful. Plus, there are more cosmetically appealing options available compared to years past, like Invisalign. As a result, you can pursue your smile goals without the obtrusive metal brackets and wires.

How do I get emergency dental care?

The first step is determining where to turn for help. If your dental injury is accompanied by a potentially life-threatening condition (i.e., difficulty swallowing, uncontrollable bleeding, a fractured jaw), then call 911 or head to your nearest ER. If you don’t have a potentially life-threatening condition, then call our office right away and explain your situation over the phone. From there, we will be able to schedule a time for you to come see Dr. Quach for treatment.

What do you do if you can’t afford a dentist?
