December is here, which means you’re likely going to be tempted by lots of your favorite holiday treats. While enjoying a few in moderation is fine, too much could mean the onset of cavities. Which is why your Astoria, NY, dentist has a few tips for keeping teeth strong through the holiday season!
How Bruxism and TMJ Disorder Can Be Linked
If you suffer from chronic headaches without knowing the cause, you could have a misaligned jaw. This is known as TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Disorder, and it can have very painful effects. Moreover, it can also cause — or be caused by — Bruxism, or chronic teeth grinding. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about both issues and describes the ways we can offer you relief.

The Difference Between A Cleaning And A Deep Cleaning
When plaque and tartar accumulate on the surfaces of your teeth, this could be a recipe for poor oral health and eventually, major discomfort. To protect your smile, we need to remove the buildup with a cleaning. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about this procedure, and about our scaling and root planing procedure as well.
All Smiles Benefit From Teeth Cleaning
When you have a smile with major plaque and tartar buildup, you have one at risk for tooth decay and gum disease, even if you brush and floss. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist explains how we benefit from a dental cleaning every six months, and when you may need a deep cleaning!
Time For Your Next Checkup
We recently talked about why you should see us soon to use your dental benefits before they expire. In today’s blog, we would like to talk about the checkup portion of your visit in particular. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist explains how every smile benefits from a checkup every six months.
Use Your 2021 Dental Benefits
On December 31st, any remaining dental insurance benefits or health savings funds will expire, and you will have to wait a bit for your 2022 benefits to become available. Which is why recommend making sure you use what’s left before the hectic holiday season starts! In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about using your benefits before you lose them.
A Straighter Smile Using Clear Braces
If you have misalignment, then you need orthodontic treatment to improve the alignment of your smile. Instead of relying solely on metal braces, our office has a more cosmetic approach. ClearCorrect employs a series of comfortable aligners that are nearly invisible when worn! In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about the ClearCorrect system.
Reshaping Your Gum Line In One Visit
When you have a gummy smile, or problems with the symmetry of your gum line, this could lead to issues with the beauty of your smile. To correct these issues, and to do so in the only one visit, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about our gum contouring procedure, and how we can even treat issues like periodontal disease.
Crafting Veneers That Dazzle
When you have issues with your smile beyond simple discoloration, you may assume a host of treatments is needed to correct them. But what if we could create porcelain veneers to mask these issues and transform your smile? In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about how we craft and place dazzling porcelain veneers.
A Single-Visit Cosmetic Smile Fix
Cosmetic dentistry isn’t just limited to teeth whitening treatments. With dental bonding and cosmetic contouring, we have two very different procedures that can both be completed in a single visit. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist explains how these procedures repair and improve your smile in only one sitting.
