Frequently Asked Questions

I'm not having any symptoms. Do I still need to see a dentist? Yes. Even if you don’t have any symptoms, you can still have dental health problems that only a dentist can diagnose. Regular dental visits will also help prevent problems from developing. Continuity of care is an important part of any health plan and dental health is no exception. Keeping your mouth healthy is an essential piece of your overall health. It’s also important to keep your dentist informed of any changes in your overall health since many medical conditions can affect your dental health too.

Why do regular dental visits matter? Regular dental visits are important because they can help spot dental health problems early on when treatment is likely to be simpler and more affordable. They also help prevent many problems from developing in the first place. Visiting your dentist regularly is also important because some diseases or medical conditions have symptoms that can appear in the mouth.

What are my options for replacing a missing tooth?

1. Dental implant
2. Fixed bridge
3. Removable partial denture
4. Removable complete denture

I am afraid of going to the dentist... What can I do? Fear of the dentist is quite common for many people. At Sierra Gate Family Dental, we are well aware of the prevalence of dental anxiety, and we are properly trained to work with you in helping you to overcome dental anxiety. We have a well-trained team, eager to work with you to make your visits comfortable and pleasant. Asking questions about your mouth and proposed treatment will help remove fear of the unknown and give you an opportunity to become involved in your dental health. Give us a call to ask about your options for sedation dentistry.

How do I know if my toothache is an emergency? Toothaches can occur for many reasons, from infection to a piece of food stuck between teeth. Before you make an emergency appointment, you can try brushing and flossing your teeth to see if the toothache is due to something stuck in the teeth. If that does not help, or the pain continues for a few days, it’s best to schedule an appointment for evaluation and treatment.

When should I go to the hospital versus the dentist? If you experience any sort of traumatic injury to the face or head, such as dislocation, abrasions that won’t stop bleeding, broken jaw, or loss of consciousness, you should visit the local emergency room right away instead of calling the dentist. Once medical care has been received, you can schedule a follow-up with the dentist for any dental treatment that is needed.

I knocked out a tooth. Can it be saved?

1. Rinse, do not scrub, the tooth to remove dirt or debris.
2. Place the clean tooth in your mouth between your cheek and gum or under your tongue.
3. Do not attempt to replace the tooth in the socket as this could cause further damage.
4. Get to the dentist. Successful re-implantation is possible only when treatment is performed promptly.
5. If it is not possible to store the tooth in the mouth of the injured person, wrap the tooth in clean gauze, immerse it in milk, and give us a call.
