Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I visit the dentist?
Optimally every six months for routine checkups and cleanings. More frequent visits depends on your oral health needs.
What causes cavities?
Cavities are caused by harmful bacteria in the mouth that produce acids after feeding on sugars from food and drinks. Over time, these acids can wear down the tooth enamel and create small holes in the teeth. Poor oral hygiene, frequent snacking, sugary foods, and acidic drinks can increase the risk of developing cavities.
How can I prevent gum disease?
The best way to prevent gum disease is to keep your gums clean and healthy every day. Brush twice daily, floss once a day, and book regular dental check-ups and cleans. A healthy diet and avoiding smoking or tobacco products can also make a big difference to your gum health.
What should I do if I have a toothache?
A toothache can be a sign that something needs attention. Start by rinsing your mouth with warm water, gently flossing to clear away any food debris, and avoiding chewing on that side. If the pain does not settle or you notice swelling, sensitivity, or ongoing discomfort, contact your dentist promptly for advice and treatment.
What are tooth implants?
These are artificial tooth roots made of titanium, used to support replacement teeth.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term tooth replacement option. With daily brushing and flossing, regular dental visits, and proper care, they can last for decades and often a lifetime. Your dentist in Hoppers Crossing can also check your implant during routine appointments to make sure it stays healthy and stable.
