FAQ's

Frequently asked questions

What Is Preventive Dentistry?

Preventive dentistry is dental care and treatment that helps you avoid common problems such as periodontal disease and tooth decay (caries). You practice some preventive dentistry at home every day when you floss and brush your teeth. However, it is necessary for you to visit the dentist twice a year for more comprehensive examinations and cleanings than you could do by yourself.

What Kind of Toothbrush and Toothpaste Should I Be Using?

We do not recommend a particular type of toothbrush or toothpaste, but we do suggest that you pick a brush with a small head and soft bristles. This will lessen the chance of gum irritation. Some toothpaste brands are specially formulated for people with sensitive teeth, or for those who want whiter smiles. You can choose the toothpaste you prefer depending upon your taste and ultimate goals.

Why Should I Visit a Cosmetic Dentist for Tooth Whitening?

Tooth whitening is very popular today, and there are plenty of over-the-counter products that promise great results. Only a trained cosmetic dentist can offer you dental grade tooth whitening that is safe and effective. Plus, your cosmetic dentist may be able to suggest other ways to get and keep a bright smile, such as with porcelain veneers or dental crowns.

Will I Need a Dental Crown After I Get a Root Canal?

It is very likely that if you need a root canal, a dental crown will be advised after the procedure to strengthen the tooth. Dental crowns are made right in our office and are created to fit your unique mouth structure. To talk to us about root canal surgery or same-day dental crowns, please call 847-908-8102 to schedule a time to meet with Dr. Naim, our dentist in Park Ridge, IL.

Do I Need to Get New Fillings If I Have Amalgam (Silver) or Metal Ones?

Although it is not required that you get new fillings to replace your current amalgam or metal ones, it may be the right solution if your fillings are falling out, seem to fit poorly, make your mouth and food taste funny, or are causing your teeth to crack. Composite fillings can be made while you wait and are tooth-colored. This allows them to blend in with the rest of your teeth.

Do You Offer Emergency Dental Care?

Yes! If you have an emergency, please call us at 847-908-8102. We will do our best to get back to you as soon as we can, and then set up a time to meet at our Park Ridge, IL, office.
