New Patient FAQs
Do you want to know more about us? We’re here to assist you. Read answers to common questions that patients have about their dental care in our Bingham Farms dentist office.
Many people will experience dental problems at some point in their lives. Some issues may seem small at first, but if left untreated, they can grow into bigger concerns that affect your comfort, confidence, and overall health. Knowing the signs of common dental problems can help you get care early and prevent long-term damage.
Some of the most common dental problems that patients can experience include:
- Tooth Sensitivity
- Gum Bleeding and Recession
- Toothaches
- Cavities
- Worn Tooth Enamel
While these problems are common, they affect the health and function of the smile. So don't hesitate to contact our office if you notice changes in your smile. We're here to help.
A dental cleaning usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour. The exact time can depend on how much plaque or tartar needs to be removed. If it's been a while since your last cleaning, it may take a little longer. During the visit, our hygienist will carefully clean, polish, and floss your teeth to make sure your smile feels fresh and healthy.
Before you brush your teeth, floss to remove food debris and plaque between the teeth. Brush your tongue to combat bad breath. Harmful bacteria can collect on the tongue. If you have a dental restoration like a dental crown, dental bridge, or dentures, you can use an interdental brush to get a better clean.
We recommend biannual dental visits for our patients so we can keep track of their dental problems and provide thorough dental cleanings. Sometimes, you can't reach bacterial buildup in certain parts of the smile, especially if you have crooked or overcrowded teeth.
Regular dental cleanings every six months provide a deep clean. Additionally, some oral health problems are hard to see without technology, like dental x-rays that show issues we can't see with a visual examination.
We recommend calling our office first if you have dental anxiety. Our team has multiple options to help you get the dental treatment you need. If you're a new patient, we can recommend an office tour so you can familiarize yourself with our office staff, dentists, and operatories.
When you visit us for an appointment, you can bring a loved one to sit with you while you wait. You can also listen to music or bring a fidget toy or stress ball to help distract you during treatment. Mild sedation is also a great option if you're anxious about dental cleanings or routine dental treatments.
We welcome you to discuss your options with us. Our office wants you to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible so we can help you stay healthy.
