Frequently Asked Dental Questions – Lebanon, NH

How often should I visit for a dental exam and cleaning?

We recommend that you come in for routine exams and cleanings at least once every six months. During these visits, we’ll make sure no problems invisible to the naked eye are present as well as perform a detailed cleaning to remove harmful plaque and tartar. Your child should come in for their first dental appointment within six months of their first tooth erupting or on their first birthday.

Can you repair my damaged teeth?

We have multiple solutions for restoring damaged teeth, so you’re not forced to settle for an extraction! Not only do we provide tooth-colored fillings to restore teeth without compromising appearance, but we can also customize dental crowns to prevent fractured teeth from breaking apart further. Even if you haven’t been to the dentist in a long time, we’re more than happy to work with you to create a comprehensive treatment plan to restore your smile to the fullest.

How can you improve my smile’s appearance?

There are many solutions to resolving a variety of cosmetic imperfections. Whether it’s more affordable solutions like direct bonding or teeth whitening or more complex options like porcelain veneers. We can even create a smile makeover treatment plan so that all of your needs are met accordingly. Customizing a treatment plan can be one of the most effective ways to hide discolorations, gaps, chips and cracks.

What are your tooth replacement options?

Should I visit you for a dental emergency?

If you are experiencing tooth or gum discomfort or you damaged/knocked-out a tooth because of a recent oral injury, please don’t put off treatment. Give us a call right away. If you are severely bleeding from the mouth or you believe your jaw is broken, go to the emergency room. After you have stabilized, come to our dental office so we can better assess your oral condition.
