Not everyone needs to have their wisdom teeth removed. If there is room in your mouth for this third set of molars and they grow in properly, you could continue to live with them without experiencing any irritation. However, most people do not have enough room, and they grow in impacted as a result. This can lead to discomfort while also creating space for food to become trapped.</p><h2>Signs you need to have your wisdom teeth removed:</h2><h3>Soreness or pain.</h3><p>If your wisdom teeth hurt or the area is sore, you may need to have them extracted.</p><h3>Gaps.</h3><p>If you have a gap in between your wisdom tooth and your back molar, this can become a space where food becomes trapped and plaque builds up. If you are constantly reaching for a toothpick to remove food from this area, you should consider an extraction.</p><h3>Your teeth are moving.</h3><p>If your teeth appear to be shifting out of place, it could be because your wisdom teeth are pushing them forward. If you have already had braces to straighten and align your teeth, this is a risk you may not want to take. When you visit us for a <strong>wisdom teeth removal</strong> in Redwood City, we can examine your teeth and determine if they are moving due to your wisdom teeth or another issue like a tongue thrust or even oral cancer.</p><h2>The process of removing wisdom teeth:</h2><p>When we complete a <em>wisdom teeth removal</em>, we have several ways of doing so. If the tooth has already started to grow in and is coming in straight, we can typically pull it out of the socket after giving you anesthesia. This is the fastest way to do so since it does not require oral surgery. If, however, your tooth is impacted or still under the surface, we will need to create a flap in the gum tissue that will be lifted up so we can access the tooth below. If there is any gum tissue or bone on top of the tooth, it will need to be cut away so we can reach the tooth and try to lift it out of the socket. There are times where this will not be enough to loosen it, and in this scenario, we will need to break the tooth into several pieces and remove them one at a time. Next, we will clean the area to ensure no debris remains and the area does not become infected. Afterward, we will lay the flap back down and suture it in place. This entire process is done using anesthesia so you do not experience any discomfort.</p><p>Afterward, we will place gauze on the area to stop the bleeding. We also recommend you use an ice pack for 15 minutes at a time and take ibuprofen to reduce the swelling. You may experience discomfort for a few days, so be careful to continue icing and stick with foods that are soft and easy to eat.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Dentist" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/about/find-a-dentist/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Dentist Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Dentist in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Dentist in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Dentist" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Dentist" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Family Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/procedures" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Family Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Cosmetic Dentistry" href="http://roydental.net/redwood-cosmetic-dentistry-services" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Cosmetic Dentistry</span></a></span>

For many people, <strong>dental implants</strong> are life changing. This compilation of three ways <em>dental implants</em> can change your life is just the beginning of the many benefits they can provide.</p><h3><b>Dental Implants</b> Help You Stay Young Looking</h3><p>Dental implants not only improve the necessary function of your teeth, but they can also drastically improve your appearance, making you look years younger. Implants make your smile fuller, filling in drooping areas of your cheeks, jawline, and lips. Once you receive dental implants, you will immediately notice that your facial skin is firmer, and your wrinkles are less noticeable. No matter what your age is, when you lose teeth it tends to make you look a decade older or more because you do not have a strong structure to keep your skin taut, and you develop a sunken appearance in your face. If you go without teeth too long, you may even lose bone structure since there are not teeth in place to keep your jawbone and other teeth from shifting.</p><h3>Dental Implants Improve Your Chances of Succeeding in Your Career</h3><p>Your smile is the first thing the majority of people will notice about you and one of the most vivid memories they will hold of your face. If you have less than impressive teeth, it may give off a false impression of your hygiene and happiness. Make a great first impression by receiving quality dental implants that look and feel real while also greatly improving your smile.</p><p>People who smile more often give off the impression of being more confident and content in life. When you are trying to succeed in life, it is important to look and feel confident so you can surpass your expectations and other's expectations of you. Allow us to give you more confidence and success by providing you with dental implants that perfectly fill in your already beautiful smile.</p><h3>Dental Implants Make it Easier to Eat a Healthy Diet</h3><p>When you are missing teeth, it is often easier to opt for foods that are not challenging to chew, but these foods also tend to have less nutritional value. Not getting proper nutrients can lead to the loss of more teeth, bone loss, weight loss, blood sugar problems, and long-term health risks. When you are ready to enjoy a proper meal again, complete with all the vitamins and minerals necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle, dental implants can provide you with this power. Dental implants can also help you eat foods that you miss that you may not have been able to eat in years. Eating the foods you love makes life more enjoyable and provides you with a long life.</p><p>The procedure to receive dental implants typically only takes two to three visits, and within a few months, you will have strong, working teeth again. The artificial tooth roots that hold your replacement teeth in place are made of a titanium metal that fuses with your jawbone to create the strongest possible substitute for missing teeth. Dental implants can act on their own as replacement teeth, or they can be used to support dentures or dental bridges as needed. The options and benefits of dental implants are numerous and can change your life for the better in a few simple visits to our Redwood City office.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Dentist" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/about/find-a-dentist/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Dentist Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Dentist in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Dentist in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Dentist" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Dentist" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Family Dentist" href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/family-dentist/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Family Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Cosmetic Dentistry" href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/cosmetic-dentist/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Cosmetic Dentistry</span></a></span>

<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
As a family dentist, our goal is to provide a cavity treatment for kids that makes it possible for our young patients to experience good oral health. We are innovative, gentle, thorough and considerate, making us the ideal dentist to treat your child – especially if they have autism. We understand that parents of autistic children have a lot on their plate. There is often a need to identify new and different ways to do everything from educating autistic children to having cleaning their teeth and filling their cavities. Doing things differently is okay as long as you have people that are willing to work with you. We are.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
When you first call to make an appointment, please let us know if there are any special requests that you have. Think about your child and the things that make them either happy or stressed out. If your child needs it to be quiet, let us know, we can schedule their appointment for first thing in the morning. If they are happier at night, let us know and we will give them the last appointment of the day. We even want to know if they have a favorite sports team or superhero since we can incorporate these facts into our conversations with them. While simple, these little things can help the child to feel much more comfortable while receiving dental care. Regardless of what it is that makes the child feel better, we want to know about it so that we can create a plan for how to treat them.</div>

Cavity Treatment For Kids Redwood City</h3>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
As a children’s dentist, we understand that the little details are what turns a scary dentist appointment into something that a child actually looks forward to. We are willing to work with you and your children to find the perfect formula so that they welcome the chance to receive ongoing dental care. With our treatment methods, your child will be much more calm about coming in for a cavity treatment.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
You may also want to consider giving your child sedation. We can provide them with nitrous oxide as a way to relax them. They will still be awake and feel in control but they will be incredibly calm, relaxed and happy. Sedation will help them to hold still during treatment and to have an overall sense of wellbeing. This is important for any child and can be particularly important for an autistic child that may have more difficulty visiting the dentist.</div>

If you are bringing your child in with a toothache, there is a good chance they have a cavity that needs treatment. If the cavity is incredibly small, we may begin with a simple fluoride treatment. This may help the tooth to become strong enough to fight off the decay. If the tooth begins to decay, we will treat it by removing that portion of the tooth, cleaning it and then giving your child a dental filling. We use tooth-colored resin, which will make the filling look like a natural tooth structure. After the procedure, the child will go back to feeling comfortable and their tooth will look intact.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">

Whether you have an autistic child or one in need of a cavity treatment for kids, call us. We will care for their teeth and look forward to doing so.</div>

<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
You, or your child, may need dental fillings in order to protect a tooth and to keep it safe after it sustains damage or experiences an infection. Fortunately, there are several options available for people needing a filling, with tooth-colored materials as one option to hide the dental work. At Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS, we are experts at providing the care your family needs while keeping smiles beautiful. </div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
Most often, we will use dental fillings to treat a cavity. If you or your child has a cavity, we will need to remove the infected or decayed area. Removing the infection will leave a small hole or at least dent that we will need to fill in with a safe and strong material. If the gap in the tooth is left open and exposed, it will become an excellent resting place for bacteria, leading to future oral health problems. </div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
Dental fillings can also restore worn down or damaged teeth after an accident. Chipped or broken teeth can also be treated with a filling. This is most often seen when people grind their teeth. </div>
<h3 style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.2em;">
The Process </h3>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
If the dentist decides that a dental filling is necessary, they will numb the area before doing any work. This is typically done with local anesthesia so that the patient doesn’t feel any pain but is still awake during the procedure. A dental tool will then remove the damaged area of the tooth. Once we completely remove the damaged or decayed area, we will clean it to make sure that there are no lingering bacteria. </div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
If you have a standard metal filling, we will place it into the clean area and smooth it out to blend in with the tooth as much as possible. If you have a tooth-colored filling, we will need to place it in layers. After each layer, a special light is used to harden the material before the next layer is placed. This process helps to create a natural appearance that patients desire. </div>
<h3 style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.2em;">
Types of Fillings</h3>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
There are several types of dental fillings to choose from, and the decision must be made based on personal preference, goals, cost, and lifestyle. </div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: sans-serif, Arial, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px;">
Gold fillings. These are extremely durable and can sustain hard chewing without needing to be replaced for ten to fifteen years. They are easier to look at than silver fillings but also more expensive. </div>

Silver fillings. These will also last for ten to fifteen years but will not blend in with your tooth, and we may need to remove the additional area from the tooth in order to make space for it. </div>

Composites. A composite or tooth-colored filling will blend in with your tooth and be bonded to it for additional strength. They do take longer to place, extending a dental visit by at least twenty minutes. Additionally, they only last for around five years vs. ten to fifteen. </div>

There's nothing more exciting than getting ready for this special day. A wedding is a celebration of two people who are about to begin a new journey together; a magical moment between two people in front of all their friends and family. The wedding photographer, friends, and family in the audience will capture the wonderful moments for years. Looking and feeling one's best is a crucial element of one's wedding. We can help people become proud of their smile for their big day and the life that follows with our <strong>teeth whitening service</strong>.<br />
<h2>
Our <em>Teeth Whitening Service</em>s Are Convenient</h2>
When it comes to improving your smile, you may harbor concerns that it is going to take a significant financial investment or a large amount of time on your part. When planning for a wedding, these are two things you may not have allocated toward your smile. We understand that you're busy picking the wedding venue, tasting different cake recipes, and trying to decide who to put on the guest list. This takes a great deal of time, effort, and concentration; we get it. This is why we believe teeth whitening is something that every bride or groom should put on their agenda. It doesn't require much effort on your part. It doesn't require a great amount of time. And it is incredibly affordable. These are all reasons to put this on your to-do list and be confident knowing that it's going to be easy for you to get it done. This is truly a no-stress solution for improving your appearance and your smile.<br />
<h2>
How It Works</h2>
Our <b>teeth whitening service</b>s from our Redwood City dental office work incredibly well and far better than anything you can buy in the store. This is because we start with a professional-grade solution. Most of the products you buy in the store will only remove the surface stains on your teeth. This is fantastic if you've been doing something like drinking a lot of colored juices lately. However, if your teeth are dark, stained, or yellow because of years of taking antibiotics, drinking your daily latte, or even smoking, there's a good chance that the stains and discoloration you suffer from are well inside your teeth. In this case, simply removing the surface decay will do nothing more than brighten your teeth. They won't actually change them back to a beautiful shade of white. However, our solution operates differently.<br />
<br />
Our professional-grade teeth whitening solution penetrates the surface of your enamel and begins to target the molecules inside your teeth. Through the process of oxidization, the molecules inside your teeth will begin to reflect less light and appear colorless. This is what gives them their bright and white appearance. In this way, we are actually able to make your teeth whiter than they have ever been before. It is common for our patients to have their teeth become eight shades or more white in time for their wedding day. All you need to do is call and schedule an appointment for our teeth whitening services in Redwood City.<br />

What many people do not realize is that we also have additional duties when it comes to taking care of your teeth, especially when you have a broken, cracked, or chipped tooth. There are three elements in a broken tooth that we strive to quickly correct. The first is the vulnerability of the tooth. When a tooth has been exposed to trauma in an accident or has experienced a fracture due to decay, it is vulnerable to an additional element of bacterial infection. The mouth is awash with oral bacteria, which under normal circumstances has no access to the root or pulp of the tooth.<br />
<br />
However, when the tooth is damaged, there is a strong potential for an infection to set in. We want to avoid this at all costs and will use a number of treatment options to prevent it, including dental crowns, dental veneers, and fillings. There are times when a dental filling can do the job perfectly, in which case, we would choose this option. At other times, a filling would not be sufficient, so we would use a dental crown.<br />
<br />
The second element that a <strong>cosmetic dentist</strong> is concerned about when it comes to your teeth, and a damaged tooth, in particular, is the element of function. It is easy to forget that the primary role of the teeth has to do with basic survival and sustaining the body. The teeth are the first step in digestion, meaning we have to ensure they are able to do their work of chewing and tearing food effectively. Often, when a tooth is damaged, it is the cusp of the tooth that takes the most damage.<br />
<br />
The cusp is the sharp and pointy surface of the tooth, used for chewing and tearing. When damaged, we have to replace the cusp with a dental crown. If the damage is extensive, we may even consider removing the tooth and the root to replace it with a strong and stable dental implant. Cusps are also one of the easiest things to damage. Unfortunately, when this happens, your <em>cosmetic dentist</em> will have to replace the enamel with either the two above options or a partial denture to restore the functionality of the tooth.<br />
<br />
The third element is something people should associate with a <b>cosmetic dentist</b>, and that is the aesthetic elements of a broken tooth. A broken tooth is ugly, and having a tooth that is cracked, chipped, or damaged will lead you to smile less, which falls directly into the realm of the cosmetic dentist. There are multiple solutions for broken teeth, and some are more aesthetically pleasing than others. For example, when performing a filling, there is the choice of using amalgam, which is a silver-colored filling that clearly shows up or we can use a porcelain filling that matches your teeth perfectly. As a cosmetic dentist in Redwood City, you know we will always lean toward the better-looking option.<br />

A <strong>dentist</strong> can help you lead a long, healthy life, free of many ailments.<br />
<h2>
The list below is just a short snippet of what regularly visiting your <em>dentist</em> can do for you.</h2>
<h3>
Early Detection of Cavities</h3>
Early detection of cavities is one of the main reasons it is important to visit the <b>dentist</b> on a regular basis. When you visit every six months, your dentist will be able to spot potential dental problems before they become dangerous. Early detection will help your treatment become less expensive and less intensive<br />
<h3>
Prevention of Cavities</h3>
The prevention of cavities is much easier when you have a knowledgeable dentist on your side. If you are “cavity prone,” a dentist can work with you to determine the best regimen for preventing cavities. When you visit a dentist, you'll learn how to care for your teeth by flossing and brushing. If you are still cavity prone after proper dental hygiene is implemented, you may even be prescribed toothpaste with additional fluoride in it to help protect your teeth.<br />
<h3>
Detection of Medical Conditions</h3>
A dentist can discover some medical conditions or diseases, like cancer, by symptoms that appear in your mouth. Whenever you visit the dentist, your mouth will be checked for sores, lesions, and swollen areas that can lead to discovery and treatment. People can prevent the risk of mouth cancer and ease the treatment process by catching the symptoms at a dentist early on.<br />
<h3>
Gum Disease Prevention</h3>
Periodontal disease, better known as gum disease, is an infection of the gums and tissues that support your teeth. Gum disease starts as a milder form called gingivitis. When plaque builds up, it hardens and becomes tartar. Tartar buildup will inflame and infect your gums. If they are not immediately treated it could lead to severe gum disease. You will know you have gum disease by bleeding and swollen gums, persistent bad breath, and tenderness. Untreated gum disease can lead to the loss of teeth, gum recession, and the weakening of your jaw bone and dental structure. Visiting your dentist on a regular basis will help prevent gum disease, and if you are developing gum disease already, you can receive treatment sooner to prevent long term problems.<br />
<h3>
Confidence Improvement</h3>
Much of a person's confidence is based on how comfortable they are with their smile. If you have excellent teeth, you will be inclined to smile more often, and you will most likely be happier overall. A quality dentist can help keep your teeth white, strong, healthy, and beautiful. A dentist can also recommend a reliable orthodontist if you need to have your teeth straightened, and they can keep your teeth clean and healthy throughout orthodontic treatment.<br />
There are even more reasons to visit the dentist in addition to these. For the best smile and the healthiest lifestyle, make regular dentist visits a priority in your life.<br />

Replacing missing teeth is a critical process for improving the outward appearance, bone health, speech, ability to eat, and self-confidence. Whether or not to replace teeth is not an option. The main option that you will want to consider is how you want to replace them. With standard options like dentures and dental bridges, many people instantly gravitate toward what they know. However, there is a third option that is far more durable and better for your health: dental implants. Surgically placing them in the jaw, dental implants are worth learning more about.<br />
<h2>
Here are the top three reasons our patients replace their teeth using <strong>dental surgery</strong> to acquire dental implants:</h2>
<h3>
#1 - They want a new tooth that does not go anywhere.</h3>
Dentures may look like natural teeth, but they are designed to be removed on a nightly basis. That means your teeth can move out of place or become loose at any time. If you are trying to enjoy a nice big steak, that can be incredibly inconvenient. If you are running a marathon, it can be embarrassing. If you want teeth that stay in place no matter what, you need implants.<br />
<h3>
#2 - Implants stop resorption.</h3>
Within the first year of losing a tooth, you will start to experience resorption — at a rate of 25 percent in a single year. Resorption is when the body begins to leach calcium from your jawbone because it believes that your jaw is no longer doing its job of supporting your teeth. The more calcium your jaw loses, the less dense it will be. Resorption puts your remaining teeth at risk and can cause your face to have a sunken appearance, making you look far older than you are. Dental implants provide your jaw with the stimulation it needs to stop the resorption process. During the <em>dental surgery</em>, the surgeon attaches the implant to the jawbone so osseointegration can take place.<br />
<h3>
#3 - They're looking for a solution that looks natural.</h3>
Dental implants are the most natural-looking way to replace teeth because a dental lab creates the tooth portion to your exact specifications and measurements. The lab can even match the shade of white necessary to blend in with your surrounding teeth. Since the tooth is secured to your implant, it is not connected to your other teeth in any way. There are no visible wires or hooks like with dentures and no dental crowns to worry about, like with a dental bridge.<br />
<h3>
<b>Dental Surgery</b> Is Your Best Option</h3>
When it comes down to convenience, appearance, health, and durability, nothing compares with the benefits that come from dental implants. When you use implants to replace your teeth, you can eat all your favorite foods, maintain a healthy lifestyle without worrying about your teeth, exercise, laugh out loud, and do anything you would with a full set of natural teeth. There are no restrictions beyond taking care of your smile. To learn more about the many benefits, call and schedule a consultation with our Redwood City office.<br />

In many cases, we use dental crowns to restore a severely damaged tooth or a tooth that has had a root canal. For example, if a tooth is cracked, chipped, or eroded, we can place a dental crown around it to protect the tooth. The dental crown will help the tooth become fully functional again and look perfectly natural. While this is a common procedure, many patients are unaware that a crown is not infallible. It can last for 15 years or more, but you have to take good care of it. If you do not brush and floss regularly or do not seek preventative dental care, the tooth underneath your crown will be at risk for experiencing decay. Additionally, it is possible to damage a crown by eating ice, chewing pencils, playing sports, or being in an accident. With that in mind, we recommend that you take care to ensure your crowns are safe.<br />
<h3>
Signs to watch for:</h3>
There are a few signs you can watch for that a crown is damaged. Start by running your tongue along your teeth to see if there are any rough edges. If there are, you might have a chipped tooth. You should also watch to see if you have any crowns that are loose. If you do, we recommend seeking treatment immediately since a loose crown can fall off at night and be swallowed.<br />
<h3>
Steps we will take:</h3>
When you visit our <strong>dental office</strong>, we will begin by conducting a visual examination of your teeth so we can determine the source of the problem. Next, we will take x-rays. This is essential because a dental crown surrounds a tooth like a cap, and an x-ray allows us to determine if there is an issue with the tooth itself.<br />
When it comes to treating your tooth, we will need to determine if the crown itself is damaged or if the tooth underneath is also damaged or infected. If the problem is only with the crown, we might be able to smooth it out and apply a bonding material to it. If this works for restoring it, the process can be completed in one sitting. If, however, the crown is severely damaged, we might need to remove and replace it. This is a two-step process since the dental lab will need to create a new crown. Also, if the tooth underneath is infected or damaged, the crown will need to be removed so we can access it. We will remove the infected portion of the tooth before placing a new crown around it. This too will require multiple visits to our <em>dental office</em>. In rare cases, the tooth may be too damaged to save. If so, we can replace it with a dental bridge or dental implant.<br />

Most people work hard their entire life and due to the demands of work, put off important things like dental care. Understanding how critical it is to stay in excellent oral health, we always recommend seeking treatment right away. If, however, you simply can not find the time, retirement can be as good a time as ever. Remember that it is never too late to have the smile that you want.<br />
<br />
If you want to improve your smile, there are multiple ways to do so. As such, we recommend that you schedule a consultation to discuss what you like and dislike about your smile. We will then work with you to create a plan that addresses the various items that you do not enjoy. Completing a full makeover can take time, so this is often a case of determining what the priorities are.<br />
<br />
One of the first things that we will start with is teeth whitening. This is a common solution for all types of cosmetic dental work and especially in a <strong>smile makeover</strong>. The easiest and fastest way to improve your smile is with a whitening treatment. When completed in our Redwood City office, teeth can get up to eight shades whiter. This single step can make such a dramatic difference that you may not need as many procedures as you had thought. Additionally, we recommend having teeth whitened first because solutions like dental veneers will be matched to the shade of the teeth they will be next to. If your natural teeth are yellow, they will be created in a yellow shade as well. With this in mind, timing is important.<br />
<br />
If you don't like the size of your teeth, have gaps in between them, dark stains, or slightly crooked teeth, we can address all of this through cosmetic dentistry. One of the ways that we do so is with dental veneers. A veneer is a thin ceramic shell that sits on top of the natural tooth. It essentially replaces the enamel on your teeth and is so thin that it will blend in, looking completely natural. The difference is that your smile can look beautiful because all of your imperfections will go away. If you have damaged that is being corrected, or your teeth are sensitive due to erosion, a ceramic dental crown will be a better solution. It can accomplish the same things, but it is a cap that surrounds your tooth entirely, making it possible to solve both health and cosmetic issues at the same time.<br />
When completing your <em>smile makeover</em>, if you have lost a tooth or two, we will incorporate replacing them with our plan. We can do so using dental bridges or dental implants. Both are a viable solution and will look natural. The main difference is that an implant is more of a permanent solution that will also strengthen your jawbone - something that may be beneficial in your golden years. We do want to note, however, that if you have lost a tooth the time is of the essence for replacing it in order to prevent bone loss. With this in mind, making time for dental care should be a top priority.<br />
<br />
If you are considering cosmetic dentistry, do not wait until retiremtent and seek treatment today. To learn more or to discuss your options, call and schedule your consultation.<br />

Not only are ill-fitting dentures extremely uncomfortable, but they are also bad for your oral tissues and any remaining teeth you may have. Many people endure dentures that don't fit well because they don't realize there are better options available. Before any problems or infections develop due to an ill-fitting pair, you should have better ones created by a <strong>dentures dentist</strong>.<br />
<br />
Dangers of Ill-fitting Dentures<br />
When your dentures do not fit properly, it is tempting to blame your current dentist. No dentist purposefully puts a patient in danger or in an uncomfortable situation, but sometimes when they are not up to date, your needs can unintentionally be left unmet. Additionally, your jawbone will change over time which can also lead to a loose fitting set.<br />
<br />
When your dentures are loose, gum irritation inevitably begins. When this happens, your gums begin to grow and swell as they fill the irritating space. This is an unhealthy stage because, in most cases, your gums can become infected. Ulcerations are also common when dentures rub your oral tissues due to a loose fit. Infection and ulcerations are uncomfortable enough, but you may also be risking the loss of more bone density because your bones are not being correctly stimulated by chewing force. Loose dentures also make it harder to eat comfortably and speak without impediment. All of these problems and more can be avoided by visiting a <em>dentures dentist</em> in Redwood City for replacement dentures that fit better. <br />
<br />
Replacement Dentures<br />
When you come into our office, we will give you a thorough checkup and then ask you about any concerns you may have regarding your current dentures. In most situations, it will be necessary to have a whole new dentures set created. It may seem like an inconvenience, but it will be paramountly better for your dental health to have better-fitting dentures created rather than living with your current situation.<br />
<br />
Depending on how long it has been since you received your dentures, improvements in the technology have most likely been made. The molds we create are more true to your natural denture structure because we will make extensive impressions of your teeth. We will also find out exact measures, and we will have you bite down and move your jaw for us, so we know exactly what your dental movement patterns are. We relay this important information to the lab that creates your dentures.<br />
<br />
We will also take into account any other information you give us regarding your dental structure and your oral habits. You know your mouth best so any information you can give our <b>dentures dentist</b> about what you dislike regarding your current dentures and what you are looking for in your next set will be helpful.<br />
<br />
Following this appointment and process, your dentures will be created and customized to your specifications. Your new dentures should fit remarkably better and should allow you to speak and eat without any problems. Your better-fitting dentures will protect your bone structure and fit in your mouth with great comfort. Visit our dentures dentist office today if you are unhappy with your current dentures.<br />

While our office is certainly not the most exciting place to be, for those of you who do come in on a regular basis, you know that it is the best place to improve your oral health, create sparkling teeth, and improve your overall quality of life through better oral care. We appreciate the patients that make it a habit of coming in, especially those who fight levels of anxiety to walk through the door.<br />
<br />
One of the most prevalent anxieties in the world is dental anxiety. This anxiety is not limited by geography, demographics, or income. In fact, it is probably true that wherever you find a practicing dentist, you will find people that are too anxious or afraid to take care of their teeth by working with one. For between 9% and 20% of the patients that visit the dentist, that anxiety is very present and ranges between mild stress to almost panic. We understand this anxiety, and will do everything in our ability to help you overcome it. When you consider that 26% of the country will not even seek out dental care, unless they find themselves in an emergency dental situation, it becomes apparent that one of the key areas where dentists have to make an impact is in reducing the psychological fears people have of coming to see us. As a <strong>Redwood City dentist</strong>, we have worked diligently to create an atmosphere of trust so that you are not fighting anxiety every time you walk through our doors, and so that when you seek treatment for the first time, you know that you can come back to a safe and comfortable environment.<br />
<br />
Here are a few ways you can help reduce some of that anxiety.<br />
When you visit our <em>Redwood City dentist</em> office, we are going to give you two tools to help fight your anxiety. First, we will work with you to identify what the anxiety is. When you do not know what precisely is causing you to have anxiety, the fear is allowed to grow into something much bigger than it is. By identifying the exact cause of your anxiety, be it needles or a loss of control, we can isolate it and help you by working through or around it. Secondly, we are going to help you have a greater understanding of the things we do as your <b>Redwood City dentist</b>. We believe that knowledge is the greatest enemy of anxiety. The more you know about what we do, how we do it, and the tools that we use to get the job done, the less likely you are to be anxious. Also, you will get to see the extraordinary precautions we take to ensure your safety and security, and gain an understanding that you are always in control. This will help to ease some of those anxieties as well. If you need medication or sedation, we can discuss those options as well.<br />

As a <a href="http://roydental.net/periodontal-dentistry" target="_blank">periodontics </a>office, Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS receives questions every day regarding how gum disease develops, the symptoms, and how smiles can be improved after they have been damaged by gum disease. We care about our patients and their questions, and we gladly provide answers to help educate patients on periodontal disease. Listed below are just a selected number of questions we receive and our answers to them. <br />
<br />
How do I know if I have Periodontal Disease?<br />
<br />
When your gum disease is first developing it may be hard to tell. This is one reason why it is so important to keep up with regular dentist visits. Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS can tell you if your gums are irritated or infected before you even notice it. Gum disease normally starts in the form of gingivitis. At this stage, you may notice that your gums are bleeding when you brush your teeth or floss. You may also notice that your gums look like a brighter red color, and they could begin swelling. As your gingivitis develops into periodontitis, you may experience more gum swelling, gum receding, a metallic taste in your mouth, loose teeth, bad breath, tooth abscesses, and eventually tooth loss. If you are experiencing any number of these symptoms, you should visit our <b>periodontics </b>office as soon as possible for a diagnosis.<br />
<br />
Can a general dentist treat my gum disease or do I have to see a periodontist?<br />
<br />
Every dentist is educated on the basics of diagnosing and treating gum disease. You could see a general dentist, but should visit a dentist who has extensive training in gum development, care, and disease and how gum disease affects your entire dental structure. Our practice revolves around gum treatment, so you can be confident that we are up to date and experienced in the best treatment methods available. If you have advanced periodontal disease, we would encourage you to visit our <i>periodontics </i>office immediately for help. When you come in, we will examine your teeth and gums, take x-rays and perform a deep cleaning to remove plaque and tartar from under the surface of your gums. As a result, your gums will be able to return to good health, often without the need for additional treatments.<br />
<br />
Can a periodontist fix the damage that was caused by periodontal disease?<br />
<br />
Yes, we are thoroughly trained on cosmetic procedures that will correct a damaged smile. If your gums have receded due to periodontal disease, we can perform a gum graft to restore them. If you have lost any teeth because of periodontal disease, we can provide permanent and attractive dental implants. We can also perform other treatments to cover tooth roots, to improve shaping and contouring, and to lengthen or shorten teeth that look out of place due to effects of periodontal disease. A visit to our periodontics office can drastically improve your dental structure and appearance.<br />
<br />
We hope this article has helped you learn more about periodontal disease and procedures Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS can offer to improve your smile. If you need comprehensive care for your gum disease, visit our periodontics office today.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784662 -122.2552764000000137.4784662 -122.25527640000001 37.4784662 -122.25527640000001tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-61155268146470454932016-06-24T10:47:00.002-07:002016-06-24T10:47:47.155-07:00Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS Provides General Dentistry Services to Make You Smile<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<a href="http://roydental.net/redwood-cosmetic-dentistry-services" target="_blank">General dentistry</a> is the most commonly provided services from Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS. This puts Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS in a unique position to provide you with care and help ease some of the anxieties you may have developed about visiting a dentist. Practitioners of <b>general dentistry</b> know that many people are afraid to visit the dentist and that this fear is widespread around the world. Here in the United States, there is an entire segment of the population, 26 percent, in fact, that will never visit the dentist unless it is an emergency, even though they admit to knowing that visiting the dentist can help them have better oral hygiene and health. Roughly between 9 percent and 20 percent of all Americans suffer from severe anxiety when it comes to the idea of <i>general dentistry.</i> An additionally large segment of patients we see have anxiety because it has been so long since they had an examination, they do not know what condition their teeth are in. Even more concerning for these patients, they do not know what remedies will be required to restore their teeth to perfect health.<br />
<br />
General dentistry tips for overcoming your fear of dentistry<br />
<br />
All of these are legitimate fears that seem very real to the person experiencing them, and as a provider of general dentistry services, we are well aware they cannot be talked away. However, over the years, Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS has learned that there are three steps a person can take to help them overcome these fears of dentist visits. Step number one is to identify what exactly you are afraid of. Some people are afraid of the tools we use being placed in their mouth, others are afraid of the loss of control, and still others are afraid of feeling pain or discomfort. The great thing about knowing what you are afraid of is that it takes this great big fear, pares it down into a manageable part, and then allows us to isolate it so we can work through or around it. When you know what you are afraid of, we can proceed to step two.<br />
<br />
Step two involves education and demonstration. The more you understand what we do and how we do it, in addition to learning from us how safe and secure you are during any procedure, the less you will fear what is going on. Education is key to overcoming fear in general dentistry and in life. The third step is both the most difficult and the easiest. Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS tells people who are afraid of procedures that the best way to overcome a fear of dentistry is to make it a regular practice to see your dentist at least two times per year. When you come in for routine and often quick examinations and cleanings, it becomes a habit and shows you have nothing to fear from the dentist. It also builds a relationship of trust between you and your provider, so in the event that there is more intense work to be done, you already have that relationship to build on.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784662 -122.2552764000000111.9564317 -163.5638704 63.0005007 -80.946682400000014tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-64397200270067870682016-05-18T10:43:00.002-07:002016-05-18T10:47:19.530-07:00Things You Should Know About Teeth Whitening Products Before You Use Them<link itemprop="audience" href="http://schema.org/Patient" /><link itemprop="specialty" href="http://schema.org/Dentistry" /><p><img alt="Teeth Whitening" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfhiKAG6IRO4Gk2q5Jhlabca72xO2qgsR4PizYw29_HYUTjo9_g8Rb1TZ7Nsz-9DirpouhWNqDRaV9xfRC2o0UkxP__9HmjdGIDFtAIbREyc-pkHXb4mCBSiZQuyIXBbg1Dw6bQzcLyo3x/s320/teeth-whitening20165.jpg" style="float: left; margin-right: 5px;" width="300">Should you discuss <a href="http://roydental.net/redwood-cosmetic-dentistry-services#teeth-whitening" title="Teeth Whitening">teeth whitening</a> in Delaware with your dentist prior to starting the process? The answer, as many of you probably expected, is a resounding yes. While we do believe that the best <strong>teeth whitening</strong> happens right here in our offices under the supervision of your caring medical professionals, we are also aware that many people are tempted to try a store-bought solution. If you are going to go with an over the counter product to get your teeth whitened, you should still take the time to meet with us and discuss what you are using, get a recommendation, and ensure that your mouth is healthy and ready for this kind of treatment.</p><p><em>Teeth whitening</em> products have been around since as long as anyone can remember. There are stories of people rubbing coal on their teeth to whiten them that go back centuries. People have always been interested in getting that perfect white smile, knowing the confidence it offers and the trust it inspires. Not all products are made the same, however, and knowing what to look for is always a good idea. Scheduling an exam is a good place to start. While you're discussing your ideas on <b>teeth whitening</b> in Delaware with us, we can check your mouth to ensure that it is healthy enough for the treatment.</p><p>Way too many people, one in every twenty-five, find themselves in a level of discomfort after using a teeth whitening product. This can range from a mild where you need to take an aspirin to severe where you must see a dentist. The cause of this discomfort varies and, quite frankly, no one has fully figured out why some patients react badly to the bleach. Here is what we do know. If your mouth is unhealthy, it will increase your chances of experiencing irritation, so we will check your mouth for any current infections and any cavities. Cavities or untreated infections, will interact with the bleach and other chemicals in the whitening and cause extreme pain. Even worse they could cause the infection to spread, with some patients needing a root canal to fix this infection. Save yourself the trouble and let us inspect your mouth instead.</p><p>Whatever you do, please do not overuse a whitening product. Teeth whitening in Delaware puts a level of trauma on the teeth and gums through the introduction of chemicals. In short doses and for a limited period of time this will have zero adverse effects. However, some people are not satisfied with their teeth color or realize that soon after whitening the teeth start to stain again and begin to use the whitening products as a monthly ritual. They are not a monthly ritual. In fact, like most dentists, we advise only whitening your teeth once every four to six months in order to prevent irritation to the gums. If your store-bought teeth whitening solution is not getting you the effects you desire, it is probably because it is an inferior product and by simply having it done at our office, you will see better results.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Teeth Whitening" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/teeth-whitening/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Teeth Whitening Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Teeth Whitening in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Teeth Whitening in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Teeth Whitening" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Teeth Whitening" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/doctor" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Root Canal Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/periodontal-dentistry#scaling-and-root-planing" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Root Canal Dentist</span></a></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784662 -122.2552764000000111.004492200000001 -163.5638704 63.9524402 -80.946682400000014tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-10583152280363553582016-05-02T11:59:00.000-07:002016-05-11T12:08:19.892-07:00A Root Canal Dentist Can Treat Your Infected Tooth Nerves<link itemprop="audience" href="http://schema.org/Patient" /><link itemprop="specialty" href="http://schema.org/Dentistry" /><p><img title="Root Canal Dentist" alt="Root Canal Dentist" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUQEkmDIXPcIPJ5OdRgUDCYrWJNpcCJsnGYjVNNT34t8GAqtEMneal6ZaKt4-bWiz1CY71z85ikilQ_-6V-BmvLCEgEsUcHvpcEKXOeEl5c8AFXYGBhP6uZdvXs71CHpaee9TdIpzPTrI8/s320/root-canal-dentist20165.jpg" style="float: left; margin-right: 5px;" width="300">As an experienced <a href="http://roydental.net/redwood-cosmetic-dentistry-services" title="Root Canal Dentist">root canal dentist</a>, we can treat your infected tooth and tooth nerves. Infections can be extremely painful and caused by lingering bacteria that builds up on your teeth and gum line. Regular teeth cleanings, at least twice a year, can safely remove the bacteria so that you don't develop an infection. If it occurs, you will need an experienced dentist to treat the problem before it spreads and becomes worst.</p><p>An infected tooth nerve can be extremely painful. Typically, the infection will start in your tooth. When the soft area of your tooth, known as the dental pulp, becomes infected it can cause sensitivity and eventually pain. If it isn't caught in time, the roots running through the center of your tooth can become infected. Bacterial infections are designed to grow so as the infected roots are left in place that infection will spread throughout your root system. This is extremely painful and places many patients in emergency dental situations. Regular teeth examinations can identify potential infections before they become this painful.</p><p>As a <strong>Root Canal Dentist</strong>, we can treat infected teeth and tooth nerves and make it possible for you to keep your natural tooth, instead of having it removed. In a root canal procedure, we start by removing the dental pulp in the center of your tooth. The area is completely cleaned, and the bacteria are removed. During the procedure, we will be able to identify if the nerves are also infected. If they are, we will remove the nerves completely. Your teeth don't need the nerves once they are fully grown. They primarily serve to identify heat and cold but those are not critical functions.</p><p>When the dental pulp and roots are removed we will inspect the area to see if there is any lingering bacteria, fractures, or canals that need to be cleaned. Once done, we will place the filling in your tooth and may cap it off with a crown. This procedure enables you to keep your natural teeth, and the procedure itself is far less painful than living with an infection.</p><p>It is important to watch for signs of a tooth or nerve infection so that you can treat it immediately before experiencing severe pain. Here are some signs you can watch for.</p><ul> <li>Your tooth becomes dark. If your tooth becomes darker than normal or gets a dark spot, this is typically a sign of infection.</li> <li>Sensitivity to hot or cold that won't go away. If your teeth hurt while eating ice cream or drinking hot chocolate, and the pain doesn't go away, this could be a sign of an infection. If your teeth are just naturally sensitive to hot and cold, the pain should stop once the item is removed. </li> <li>Tooth pain when chewing. If your teeth hurt when you eat, you could have a cavity or an infected tooth.</li> <li>Gum swelling. If your gums swell, you could have gum disease or a root infection. Also, watch for a reoccurring pimple on your gums as this is a clear sign of infection.</li></ul><p>If you notice, any of these symptoms, call your <em>Root Canal Dentist</em> immediately. It is better to undergo treatment right away than let the infection spread and the pain worsen.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Root Canal Dentist" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/root-canal-treatment/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Root Canal Dentist Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Root Canal Dentist in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Root Canal Dentist in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Root Canal Dentist" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Root Canal Dentist" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/doctor" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Teeth Whitening" href="http://roydental.net/redwood-cosmetic-dentistry-services#teeth-whitening" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Teeth Whitening</span></a></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784662 -122.2552764000000111.9564317 -163.5638704 63.0005007 -80.946682400000014tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-65238720099127846732016-04-15T09:38:00.000-07:002016-04-15T09:38:00.143-07:00Your Local Dentist Can Watch for Oral Cancer<link itemprop="audience" href="http://schema.org/Patient" /><link itemprop="specialty" href="http://schema.org/Dentistry" /><p><img alt="Oral Cancer" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyO1BvNeOO4kv2bs5wWAnwo_jRm4bk-EORVNxemGxVZu1-KZ6OjzOncic28AjXnyzgAeShcfXxU-7hQeB2g1wJopd95TemNKo2-2ytLNIxKQkd_wd2hUTwVWybqrYIfota97utZBVdE4zw/s320/oral-cancer20164.jpg" style="float: left; margin-right: 5px;" width="300">As an experienced dentist, we can help to watch for and identify signs of <a href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/periodontics/" title="Oral Cancer">oral cancer</a>. Early prevention is the key to fighting any type of cancer and by having your teeth examined twice a year, we can make sure that cancerous cells are not growing undetected. While we cannot guarantee that we will catch signs of cancer 100 percent of the time, a dental professional is typically your first line of defense when it comes to early prevention.</p><p>According to the American Cancer Society over 35,000 people are diagnosed with <strong>oral cancer</strong> on an annual basis within the United States. This is a staggering statistic considering <em>oral cancer</em> is quite unknown and is very rarely discussed. Unlike breast cancer or heart disease where people have been trained to watch for signs, most people are unaware of the symptoms of <b>oral cancer</b> which makes early prevention difficult.</p><p>At our office, our staff has been trained on how to identify the signs of oral cancer so that we can help patients to get the care they need quickly. This can give people the best shot of defeating the disease rather than becoming sicker and sicker. We can also refer you to a specialist as needed.</p><p>Here are some signs of oral cancer that you can watch for, and what we look for during your dental examinations:</p><p>Spots inside of the mouth. If you have velvety red, white or a combination of red and white patches inside of your mouth it can be a sign of cancer. If the patches are near the front of your mouth you may be able to see them while brushing your teeth, however, routine examinations are important because a dentist can inspect your entire mouth and discover any signs of cancer early in the development stage.</p><p>Random bleeding inside of your mouth. If your mouth is bleeding unexplainably this can be a sign of oral cancer.<br />Sores that do not heal. It is normal for people to get a canker sore from time to time but when sores appear in your mouth, on your neck or face and do not go away within a couple of weeks, they could be signs of cancer.</p><p>Your teeth or dentures fit together differently. Your teeth shouldn't fit together differently unless something is causing them to move. A wisdom tooth coming in or a tooth falling out is a reasonable explanation for why your teeth may shift. If there is not a logical explanation you may have a cancerous growth that is causing your teeth or dentures to move out of place.</p><p>Something in the back of your throat. If you feel like something is constantly caught in the back of your throat or your throat is constantly hurting you could have more than an infection.</p><p>Lumps, bumps, and rough spots. When cleaning your teeth our dentist will look for any strange lumps, bumps, or rough spots on your gums or the interior of your mouth. Your gums and cheeks should be smooth. When they aren't this is typically a sign of a problem. You can check for this at home by running your tongue along your gum line on a frequent basis. If you notice something out of place or different schedule an appointment with your dentist.</p><p>We help patients to stay healthy with regular dental examinations and cleanings. We will look for signs of oral cancer during your examination and inform you of any potential problems so that they can be dealt with immediately.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Periodontics" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/periodontics/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Periodontics Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Periodontics in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Periodontics in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Periodontics" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Periodontics" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dentist" href="http://www.roydental.net/about/find-a-dentist/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dental Implants" href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/dental-implants/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dental Implants</span></a></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784581 -122.2552455999999711.956423599999997 -163.56383959999997 63.0004926 -80.946651599999967tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-39540013258892094462016-04-01T09:30:00.000-07:002016-04-13T09:35:30.693-07:00Ouch!

A dental emergency, as with any health emergency can strike at any time and without warning. For some people, they will feel a moderate level of pain that all of a sudden escalates into unbearable tooth pain. For others, they need an <strong>emergency dentist</strong> after being in an accident. Regardless of when or why you need a dentist, we are available to help.</p><p>Two common reasons for needing an <em>emergency dentist</em> are injuring a tooth while playing sports or getting into an accident. According to the American Dental Association, the majority of adult tooth injuries are due to playing sports. Most adults don't have the time to play in an organized league so the likelihood of your tooth getting injured during a neighborhood game of basketball is actually fairly high. You can reduce your risk by keeping your teeth healthy in the first place or wearing a mouth guard while you play.</p><p>If your tooth was injured in a car accident or on the job, there typically isn't much you can do to prevent it. Scheduling regular dental exams and teeth cleanings will help your teeth to be healthy enough to withstand damage but there is no guarantee that your tooth won't become cracked, chipped, or even fall out during an accident. If this happens to you after business hours or on the weekend, you need to call a 24-hour dentist.</p><p>Many people make the mistake of thinking that the emergency room staff can treat tooth injuries. They can't and don't because they are trained in how to treat the rest of your body, but not in how to treat your teeth. This is why you need to visit a doctor of dentistry, not just a medical doctor. In fact, if you go to the ER, they will direct you to an <b>emergency dentist</b> instead.As a 24-hour dentist, you can call us at any time day or night.</p><p>We can provide the immediate relief you need when the pain becomes unbearable or restore your tooth after an accident. If your tooth has fallen out it is extremely important to see a dentist right away because we may be able to save it. Waiting until the morning is not an option when you are trying to do so. Instead, find your tooth, rinse it off and put it into a glass of milk. Once you get to our office, we will see if the tooth can be saved.

It is exceedingly important to instill good oral hygiene habits very early on. This routine should involve regular visits to a kid's dentist. In fact, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends that every child should first visit their dentist within six months from the time they have their first tooth.<br /> <br />Unfortunately, the AAPD also says 50% of all children have never visited a dentist. Which is probably why an estimated 20 percent of all children in the US, under the age of 6, suffer from some level of early childhood caries. And there is good reason for this... The enamel on the surface of primary teeth is not as densely mineralized as the enamel on the surface of permanent teeth, which makes them more susceptible to cavities.<br /> <br />As a <strong>childrens dentistry</strong> office, we are an important weapon in the fight against childhood caries. We specialize in the oral health care of children from birth through adolescence. Over and above the usual four years of dental school, we have additional training, and therefore, have the qualifications and the know how to take care of children's teeth and gums through the various stages of childhood.<br /> <br />Saving Primary and Young Permanent Teeth</p><p>In our <em>childrens dentistry</em> office, we will offer you good advice on how to get your child started on an excellent oral hygiene routine, and what should be done to avoid dental caries. However, in the event a cavity has already developed, we do our best not to remove any teeth because 'baby' teeth are guides for the permanent teeth that will replace them. Additionally, because the jaw has not fully developed, removing young permanent teeth can cause a malocclusion, or a misalignment of the upper and lower teeth, and is therefore also not the best option. However, a lot can be done to save primary teeth.<br /> <br />As your child's dentist we will first ensure that the decay is limited to the tooth itself, in which case filling the tooth is a relatively simple matter. However, if the cavity is a very deep one, it is entirely possible that the bacteria has reached the pulp of the tooth, which is the softest part of the tooth that lies at its root, and supplies the tooth with blood and nutrients. If left untreated, infected pulp could very well damage the permanent tooth lying below. Luckily, there are several treatment options based on the state of the tooth. These include a partial or complete removal of all the pulp tissue, or in the case where the decay has not yet infected the pulp, we will seal off, or 'cap' the exposure and restore the tooth.<br /> <br />Prevention is Better Than Cure.</p><p>While there are a number of proven and safe methods of treating young teeth, dental caries is a very preventable problem. It is a great deal easier and far less expensive, to avoid dental disease by taking some very simple steps. Regular tooth brushing and flossing, restrictions on sugary foods and snacks, etc. can all help. However, regular visits to our <b>childrens dentistry</b> office are very important because, early oral examinations play a crucial part in the detection of the beginning stages of tooth decay & other oral health problems.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Pediatric Dentistry" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/pediatric-dentist/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Pediatric Dentistry Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Pediatric Dentistry in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Pediatric Dentistry in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Pediatric Dentistry" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Pediatric Dentistry" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dental Implants" href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/dental-implants/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dental Implants</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Periodontics" href="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/periodontics/" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Periodontics</span></a></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784581 -122.2552455999999711.956423599999997 -163.56383959999997 63.0004926 -80.946651599999967tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-47173236117641140712016-03-01T10:51:00.000-08:002016-03-15T10:59:28.499-07:00Dental Veneers Fast Facts That You Should Know<link itemprop="audience" href="http://schema.org/Patient" /><link itemprop="specialty" href="http://schema.org/Dentistry" /><p><img title="Dental Veneers" alt="Dental Veneers" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitBL4p1wg9d7FWIu9nurwmuKHC0nrh1JC3mpf93sAni28LZsewtQDayHx2D9YQ4-dqiBtz1tP0uOBT1RltEIGfuDPNOoGSRJ2b0lcWmKcQm6iJtkImK_RSxd8qYQ1niLdu30xdL4JnMeGm/s320/dental-veneers20163.jpg" style="float: left;

When it comes to covering flaws, veneers are a wonderful product that creates amazing results. You will be impressed with how much better your teeth will look once you have your veneers placed. Veneers can cover many dental flaws with minimal effort. For a few more important and quick facts about them, continue reading.</p><ul> <li>A veneer is a very thin, normally porcelain shell that is adhered to the fronts of your teeth to cover flaws. </li> <li><strong>Dental veneers</strong> can cover and improve shaping and contouring issues, discoloration or spotting, chips or gaps, misaligned or crooked teeth, awkward lengths, and a variety of other imperfections.</li> <li>Veneers are normally made of porcelain or composite materials depending on your specific needs. </li> <li>Before your veneers are placed, we will gently etch the surface enamel of your teeth to create a better base for the adhesive. Once your enamel is prepared, we will adhere temporary veneers while your new ones are created in the lab. Once ready, the <em>dental veneers</em> will be bonded to your teeth with a long-lasting dental glue.</li> <li>Veneers normally last 15-20 years, sometimes longer. This length will range depending how well you care for your veneers and your surrounding gums and teeth. </li> <li>They can be easily replaced if they become damaged or worn. </li> <li><b>Dental veneers</b> can be placed in as little as one dental visit or as many as three visits depending on what type of veneers you choose. </li> <li>Before we can place your veneers, you will need to have a dental check up and allow us to fix any cavities and remove any dangerous infections. </li> <li>The veneers placement is a minimally invasive and highly effective cosmetic solution. </li> <li>You should not get veneers if your teeth are still developing or if you are suffering from ongoing periodontal disease. </li> <li>Dental veneers are customized to fit only your teeth and improve the exact flaws you discuss with us. </li> <li>Veneers are very natural looking and not easily scratched, stained, or damaged.</li> <li>The veneers procedure is not reversible unless you plan to have another cosmetic or restorative procedure completed to cover your vulnerable teeth due to the removal of enamel before veneers are placed. </li> <li>Regular flossing and brushing can be done once your veneers are placed. No extra care outside of the avoidance of biting your fingernails or grinding your teeth is required. </li> <li>Normally local anesthetic application is all the pain relief that is needed for a veneers placement. You will not experience discomfort during the procedure.</li> <li>The cost range of veneers varies depending on the location of treatment and severity of dental imperfections. </li> <li>Dental veneers from our office should blend in perfectly with your other teeth. </li></ul><p>Now that you have learned some fast facts about how convenient, efficient, and affordable veneers are, we hope you consider visiting our office to learn more.

As a general dentist, we treat both gums and teeth in order to ensure that you have the highest chance of retaining all or the majority of your natural teeth as you age. We work on all of the structures that are behind the scenes, ensuring that your mouth is healthy, that your teeth are perfect, and you have a bright and radiant smile. Besides working with the roots, gums, bone, and ligaments, we also specialize in dental implants in the event that you do experience tooth loss. This is one of the most effective ways to replace teeth that have either fallen out or need to be replaced.<br />
<br />
We also work with many different ailments that affect the mouth. Periodontal diseases range from simple inflammation of the gums to serious infections that can severely damage the gums and even cause tooth loss. Typically, gum disease starts with relatively minor symptoms. The gums may be slightly sensitive, bleed while brushing, or appear to be red and inflamed. This stage is commonly referred to as gingivitis and is easily treated. By simply performing a deep cleaning and removing plaque and tartar from under the gum line, we can help the gums to heal. Typically, after this cleaning they will regain their natural appearance and won't cause further discomfort. In our dentist office, we prefer to treat the disease at this stage because it prevents our patients from feeling further discomfort.<br />
<br />
During regular dental exams, we will let you know if you may have gum disease. If caught early enough, we will perform a deep cleaning, and that will be all that is needed. However, if the disease has advanced, the treatment options become more intense. With <strong>periodontics</strong>, gum disease can be treated when the gums have already started to recede. This is a common symptom of the disease and fairly easy to recognize. When you are brushing your teeth or smiling, pay attention to your gums and look to see if they appear to be shorter and your teeth appear to be longer. This is the most common and obvious sign of gum recession. As the gums continue to pull away from the tooth, pockets can be formed in the gum tissue. This is particularly dangerous because bacteria can gather there and form acid which attacks the exposed tooth structure and roots. When this form of gum disease is left untreated, it can lead to bone loss as the acid wears away the tooth structure. This is why people that suffer from gum disease often experience tooth loss as they age.<br />
<br />
We can treat the condition using various <em>periodontics</em> procedures. In the case of receding gums, a gum graft may be necessary to seal up the pocket and secure the gums back around the tooth. This procedure will prevent the bone loss that could otherwise occur. Once done, patients typically report feeling far more comfortable while eating and drinking as well.<br />
<br />
In <b>periodontics</b>, there are also procedures that are more cosmetic in nature. For example, a periodontist can reshape gums that are too large for the teeth. Our priority, however, is oral health and our gum treatments focus around health concerns. We understand that without healthy gums, your teeth cannot remain healthy and strong as you age. To that end, we recommend scheduling teeth cleanings for at least twice a year so that we can remove bacteria and plaque from your teeth and gums. If we notice any signs of gum disease, we will recommend treating it right away before you experience any further discomfort or irritation.<br />

As they say, practice makes perfect, and the same holds true for dentistry.</p><p>There are some signs you can watch for that will give you a good indication that it is time to schedule an appointment. </p><ul> <li>Tooth pain that won't go away. It is common to have tooth pain from time to time. In fact, if you experience pain - brush and floss your teeth. Sometimes food is stuck in there without you realizing it and simply flossing can make the pain go away after a few minutes. If the pain is persistent and gets worse when you bite down, this is a sign that you need to call a <strong>root canal dentist</strong>. </li> <li>Your tooth is darkening. Teeth become stained but when they do it is typically a yellowish color. If your tooth gets dark all of a sudden, that is a sign of a major infection and warrants an office visit. </li> <li>Breath that smells really bad! Everyone can experience bad breath after eating strong smelling cheese or garlic fries – that's normal. If, however, your breath smells terrible after brushing and flossing and continues to smell bad – that is typically a sign of an infection or a lot of bacteria in your mouth. When you visit the dentist, we can remove that bacteria and look for signs of infection in order to remove it.</li> <li>Sensitivity to hot and cold. If your tooth is infected, it will likely become more sensitive. If you eat an ice cream and your tooth hurts once; that isn't a cause for concern. Teeth, like any area of the body, can be sensitive from time to time. If, however, this happens on a regular basis with hot, cold or both, you should schedule an appointment to have your teeth examined. </li></ul><p>A <em>root canal dentist</em> can identify any infected teeth and remove the infection. This is important because when a root canal is completed correctly, it makes it possible for your natural tooth to be saved instead of needing to be pulled. In this scenario, the dental pulp (soft center of the tooth) is what becomes infected. The dentist removes this area of the tooth and will often remove the roots as well. Once your adult teeth are in place, the roots are no longer necessary. Removing them won't impact the long-term functionality of your tooth but if they are infected, they must be removed in order to prevent the infection from spreading into your jaw. </p><p>If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, schedule a dental exam right away.</p><span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ProfessionalService"><meta itemprop="name" content="Root Canal Dentist" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net/redwood-city-ca/root-canal-treatment/" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Root Canal Dentist Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Root Canal Dentist in Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Root Canal Dentist in Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA Root Canal Dentist" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=94062" /><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="url" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span></span><div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><meta itemprop="description" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.roydental.net" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Roy Dental: Paramita Roy DDS" /><div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><meta itemprop="streetAddress" content="2950 Whipple Ave" /><meta itemprop="AddressLocality" content="Redwood City" /><meta itemprop="addressRegion" content="California" /><meta itemprop="postalCode" content="94062" /></div><meta itemprop="map" content="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.478516,+-122.2552526&t=h,&z=20" /><meta itemprop="telephone" content="650-368-6333" /><span itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"><meta itemprop="latitude" content="37.478516" /><meta itemprop="longitude" content="-122.2552526" /><meta itemprop="elevation" content="0" /><meta itemprop="name" content="Redwood City, CA" /><meta itemprop="description" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City California 94062 USA" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City, CA 94062" /><meta itemprop="alternateName" content="Redwood City 94062" /><meta itemprop="sameAs" content="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California" /></span><meta itemprop="containedIn" content="California" /><meta itemprop="makesOffer" content="Root Canal Dentist" /></div><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/doctor" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dentist</span></a> > </span><span itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb" style="display:inline-block;"><a title="Family Dentist" href="http://roydental.net/staff" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title" style="text-decoration:underline;">Family Dentist</span></a></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898100308870210790noreply@blogger.com2950 Whipple Ave #9, Redwood City, CA 94062, USA37.4784581 -122.2552455999999711.956423599999997 -163.56383959999997 63.0004926 -80.946651599999967tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537590267454675727.post-59539750370183746712016-01-22T14:10:00.000-08:002016-03-09T14:13:45.718-08:00A Cosmetic Dentist Shares Alternatives to Braces<link itemprop="audience" href="http://schema.org/Patient" /><link itemprop="specialty" href="http://schema.org/Dentistry" /><p><img title="Cosmetic Dentist" alt="Cosmetic Dentist" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVLvlp3-Jb6qEh9Xt0uhy6m8yRFELj3SHPvcnHfZ-g9bjV6-BbxLcPQ85_8yzM-NPRvQRIsxReqJs4xaCdOG9qbScrlxBfMBB-HRnzVWuaNheKRFmnQfkYoNbtK8veCE1X8bjlmrl_WY_J/s320/cosmetic-dentist20161.jpg" style="float: left;

Our <strong>cosmetic dentist</strong>ry practices involve the use of quality materials with skilled hands, and our experienced dentists can inform you on the best treatment options for your particular wants. To learn more about how a visit to our office can improve your smile dramatically, continue reading.</p><p>Dental/Porcelain Veneers</p><p>When patients visit our office with the hope of improving their teeth, we can offer them many improvement options. Some patients prefer to avoid straightening treatments like braces at all costs. If this is the case, dental veneers are an excellent alternative. Porcelain veneers, also called dental veneers, are wafer-thin, hard shells of porcelain permanently bonded to the fronts of teeth that are crooked, discolored, chipped, misaligned, or have spacing issues. Dental veneers are incredibly resilient to staining, comfortable in your mouth, and long-lasting. Since they are firmly attached to your teeth, they are very strong, grounded, and durable.</p><p>Veneers can be compared to crowns, except they cover only the visible portion of your tooth rather than the entire thing, which requires less dental drilling on your natural enamel. They improve your teeth's appearance by straightening, lengthening, or whitening your smile. A small amount of your tooth structure will be removed to allow the veneers to adhere closely and comfortably. They can provide you with the biggest improvement for a small amount of dental work and an affordable price.</p><p>Dental Bonding</p><p>Dental bonding is also be used to improve shaping and spacing issues that would otherwise be treated by braces. With bonding, a dentist will use a resin material to cover imperfections and fill in spaces. The bonding is hardened so it will remain in place and become durable. This is a conservative option if you are considering improving your dental imperfections. It can be completed in one quick appointment. Dental bonding is best when used on smaller-scale improvements.</p><p>Teeth Shaping/Contouring</p><p>Our teeth shaping and contouring procedures can be used to correct minor imperfections like one or two crowded or overlapping teeth. We use our sculpting tools to gently remove bits of enamel, then shape and polish the areas that have been worked on after we have sealed any vulnerable portions in order to protect them from decay. </p><p>Each of these <em>cosmetic dentist</em> procedures results in a beautifully improved smile. If you would like a complete smile makeover, we can also combine these treatments in order to completely transform your teeth. In addition to these procedures, we offer restorative treatments if you need improvements due to missing teeth or periodontal disease damages. Whatever your <b>cosmetic dentist</b>ry needs are, we can help.

While dentures are practical and provide patients with the appearance of a full set of teeth, they never feel quite natural. Implants, on the other hand, feel the same as the rest of your teeth so there is no way to tell which teeth are natural and which teeth are replacements.</p><p>Over seventy percent of adults over the age of sixty-five experience some form of tooth loss. Even young adults suffer from this age old problem, with around thirty percent of those over thirty five suffering from tooth loss. If this happens to you, it is important to decide how you want to replace the missing tooth. An experienced cosmetic dentist can help you to determine which solution will best fit with your lifestyle and the goals you have for your appearance.</p><p><strong>Dental implants</strong> are ideal for people that have an active lifestyle and don't want their teeth to slow them down. Once the implant is installed, patients can eat all of their favorite foods, speak normally, and care for the implant as they do the rest of their teeth. This is a brush and go solution because as long as remember to practice good oral hygiene at home, along with visiting the dentist twice a year, you will never have to think about your replacement tooth again.</p><h3>How the Process Works</h3><p>In order to receive <em>dental implants</em>, you need to schedule a consultation with an experienced dentist. Our staff are experts at using this technology and able to determine if your gums and jawbone are in good enough health to schedule the procedure. If they are not, there are specific dental treatments that can get them ready. During your examination, a mold will be taken of your mouth so that the lab can create a synthetic tooth, or teeth, that is the right size and shape to blend in with your other natural teeth. If you want to have your teeth whitened now is an excellent time to do so because the synthetic tooth will be made to match your natural ones.</p><p>The first step in the procedure is to have a titanium post implanted under the surface of your gums. This piece will be secured to your jawbone and eventually the two will fuse together, creating an extremely durable synthetic root system. An abutment will be attached at the surface of your gums. Once the gums are healed the new tooth will be attached and put into position. This allows a cosmetic dentist to create a perfectly straight beautiful smile that looks and feels amazing. The entire process takes several months since your gums and bone need to heal after the implant procedure. During that time, you may want to wear temporary or immediate dentures so that no one will know that you don't have a full set of teeth.

Our white fillings will blend in with your tooth color perfectly and look natural when you smile.<br />Dental Veneers: Our veneers are thin, porcelain shells bonded to the fronts of your teeth. They effectively cover discolored, misshapen, and oddly spaced teeth and also improve the look of jagged or chipped teeth edges. Veneers are customized for your individual needs and attractively cover dental flaws, improving your appearance drastically.</p><p>Dental Implants:</p><p>If you have missing teeth, you should consider receiving our dental implants instead of getting traditional dentures.
