Cleanings and Preventive Care Silver Spring MD

A preventive care program in Silver Spring MD is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.  It is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health. Preventive care in Silver Spring MD also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth. Preventive care helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.

Your oral health is in your hands. It is important to brush and floss your teeth after each meal or at least twice a day. This will protect you from tooth decay and gum disease caused by plaque. The longer you wait to brush and floss, the harder it is to clean because plaque starts forming right as you eat. Many people skip flossing but flossing is the best and easiest way to prevent plaque build up between your teeth and below your gum line.

If you don’t brush and floss your teeth properly, you can develop bleeding gums and then gingivitis soon after. Gingivitis is severely swollen, red, and bleeding gums. It can potentially get worse and turn into gum disease.

Your oral health affects your entire body. This is why you want to maintain a healthy mouth by taking care of your teeth and mouth with daily dental hygiene practices and visiting your dentist in Silver Spring MD for regular checkups.

Emergency Dentistry Silver Spring MD

Dental emergencies are quite frightening and often painful. Emergency dentistry at Laurel Dental Associates in Silver Spring MD is almost always required to alleviate pain and to ensure the teeth have the best possible chance of survival.

If you have a tooth injury or any kind of pain in the jaw or mouth, it is important to seek out immediate treatment in Silver Spring MD. Situations such as crowns or fillings that are lost or loose can cause severe pain and you should not wait for treatment. You may be in need of an immediate root canal procedure if you are experiencing swelling, throbbing, and sensitivity which indicates an infected root pulp.

Sometimes, teeth become fractured by trauma, grinding, or biting on hard objects.  In other cases, fillings, crowns, and other restorative devices can be damaged or fall out of the mouth completely. If there is severe pain, it is essential to contact our office in Silver Spring MD immediately.  The pain caused by dental emergencies almost always gets worse without treatment, and dental issues can seriously jeopardize physical health.

Situations for Dental Emergencies:

  • Avulsed tooth (tooth knocked out)
  • Lost filling or crown
  • Cracked or broken teeth
  • Dislodged/loose teeth

Here at Laurel Dental Associates Silver Spring MD, we understand the urgency of seeing a dentist when you have a dental emergency and so we are committed to helping when you need it most.

Invisalign® Clear Braces Silver Spring MD

If you are looking for an easier and much more aesthetically pleasing alternative to metal braces in Silver Spring MD then Invisalign is for you. Invisalign are made of clear long chain polymer, so that means it is BPA free plastic. They are removable and comfortable aligners that are practically invisible and no one will tell you’re wearing them. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology that shapes the aligners to fit perfectly onto your teeth.

The way Invisalign works is simple. Invisalign braces are easy to wear and take care of. For about two weeks you wear each set of aligners. You only remove them to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Your teeth will begin to slowly move to a straighter position as you change out each aligner with the next in the series provided to you. You will also visit us at our office Silver Spring MD once every six weeks so that we can be sure that your treatment process is working the way it should. The treatment averages to around 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during this treatment is around 18-30. Each patient is unique and these times and amount of aligners may vary.

Invisalign aligners are barely visible and allow for a thorough oral hygiene routine. Other options for straightening teeth include conventional braces that feature clear or tooth-colored brackets, but these still require special tools for adequate home dental care.

Achieving straighter teeth with Invisalign clear brace is easier than ever, as our practice in Silver Spring MD works hard to keep treatment convenient for patients. Invisalign braces are an effective, discreet, and convenient way to gain confidence and the ability to smile freely.
