Dental FAQ
How often should I see my dentist?
In order to maintain good oral health, we recommend visiting your dentist every 6 months. In some cases we may suggest more visits to treat certain conditions. Not only does regularly scheduled visits ensure good oral health today, we can discover and prevent future issues.
How often should I change my toothbrush?
As you continue to use a toothbrush, the bristles begin to get worn out and frayed. It is recommended that you swap out your brush every 3 months. Using a worn out brush provides a less deep clean, and can affect your teeth in the long run.
What are the benefits of cosmetic dentistry?
The goal of cosmetic dentistry is to provide you with a confident smile. The scope of cosmetic dentistry can range from teeth
whitening to a reconstruction of your entire smile. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us to discuss what works
for you.
How old should my child be before I bring them to a dentist?
Typically, a child’s first tooth erupts at around six months. The Canadian Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that a
child’s first check up should be six months after the first tooth emerges. This is generally when the child is a year old.
How often should my child be getting checked up?
Much like adults, we recommend you bring your child in every 6 months for a checkup. In certain scenarios, we may suggest that
you bring your child in more often.
What causes cavities?
Our mouth is home to certain types of bacteria. These bacteria react with the things we eat. In the case of sugary foods, an acid is formed, which attacks and wears out the enamel of the teeth. This reaction leaves behind holes which are known as cavities.
