Have You Ever Received a Fluoride Treatment?


 

Do you know what agent is the most effective when it comes to preventing tooth decay? If you guessed Fluoride, you’re correct!

Fluoride works in two ways: topical fluoride and systemic fluoride. While topical fluoride strengthens the teeth once they have erupted, systemic fluoride strengthens not only the erupted teeth but also the teeth developing under the gums.

How does one obtain topical and systemic fluoride? We gain topical fluoride from toothpaste, mouth rinses, and gels. We gain systemic fluoride from most food and water supplies. Even though we gain fluoride from dental products and food and water, sometimes it is not enough to prevent decay.

Painless, Biological Dentistry with the WaterLase Laser System!


Painless Biological Dentistry
Heat, vibration and pressure are the three most common causes of pain associated with the use of a traditional dental drill.  The WaterLase utilizes technology that eliminates all three of these problems, enabling it to perform many dental procedures painlessly, with fewer shots, less need for anesthesia, fewer drills and less numb lips.  Additionally, using the WaterLase for gum procedures reduces bleeding, post-operative pain, swelling and the need for pain medication in many cases.

Accuracy & Precision
Dentist using the WaterLase are able to remove tooth enamel decay (the hardest substance in the body), bone and gum tissue precisely while leaving surrounding areas unaffected.  This combination of precision and Accuracy conserves and allows you to keep more of a healthy tooth structure.

Reduced Trauma
High speed drills can cause hairline cracks and fractures in the teeth that eventually lead to future dental problems. The  WaterLase is so precise, it reduces damage to the healthy portions of the tooth and minimizes trauma.

Improved Cavity Fillings
WaterLase cavity preparations can increase bond strength of tooth-colored restoration resulting in longer lasting fillings, and less trips to the dentist.

Less Bleeding & Swelling
WaterLase is very effective in performing gentle cutting actions and coagulating capabilities.   It performs many soft tissue (gum) procedures with little or no bleeding and less post-op swelling.

Fewer Dental Visits
Considering that the WaterLase eliminates the need for shots or anesthesia, dentists can perform cavity preps in all areas of the mouth in just one visit.  This technology gives trained WaterLase operatives the ability to painlessly perform many difficult procedures that were previously referred to specialists.
Versatility
                
The WaterLase is extremely versatile. It can be used for a wide range of hard tissue procedures as well as soft tissue procedures.  From decay removal, cavity preparation, root canals, smile design, gum and bone surgical procedures and many others. 

*Discomfort is based on individual sensitivity to pain, and other factors, so not all patients can be treated painlessly without anesthetic. However, dentists using WaterLase to perform typical cavity preparations report not using anesthetic in the majority of cases.

Call ALL BRITE DENTAL today to schedule your waterlase treatment! We're waiting to hear from you!

What Can Laser Dentistry do for You?



Laser dentistry is becoming increasingly more and more popular. Many people who have a fear of the dentist or get anxious before dentist appointments, have found that laser dentistry provides them with the safety and comfort they’re looking for. There are many different types of benefits and procedures that you can get done using laser dentistry.

Some procedures that can be done using laser dentistry involving hard tissue are:
  • Cavity Detection- low intensity soft tissue dental lasers can be used for the early detection of cavities by providing a reading of the by-products produced by tooth decay
  • Dental Fillings & Tooth Preparation- Laser dentistry can eliminate the process of having to get a local anesthetic injection before a dental filling. Lasers are also capable of killing off bacteria that is located inside a cavity which eventually will lead to tooth restoration!
  • Tooth Sensitivity- Laser dentistry can also be sued to seal tubules which are located in the root of the tooth. This is the area responsible for hot and cold tooth sensitivity.

There are also procedures that can be done involving the laser on your soft tissue (gums):
  • Crown Lengthening
  • Muscle Attachment
  • Soft Tissue Folds
  • Gum Reshaping

Important Tips To Follow In The Event of A Dental Accident!



Summer is now well underway and many people are enjoying the sunshine and the various recreational activities there are to participate in!

Many of the typical summer activities are swimming, baseball and biking which can lead to dental accidents! Here are some tips courtesy of CDA (California Dental Association) on what to do if you have a dental emergency this summer!

If your tooth gets knocked out, try and find the tooth immediately and call your dentist as soon as possible to schedule an emergency appointment. If you are able to find the tooth, pick it up and soak it in a glass of milk or a special solution called Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution. Do not try and place the tooth back in place yourself, you can cause more damage that way.

If your tooth is broken after an accident, the type of treatment you’ll need will depend on how bad the fracture is. In the meantime, you should rinse your mouth out with warm water and apply cold compresses to keep the swelling down.

If your injury has affected the soft tissue of your mouth including tears, puncture wounds or lacerations to your cheek, lip or tongue make sure you clean the wound right away and get to the emergency room right away for necessary precautions to take place. You can reduce bleeding by applying gauze and pressure to the area affected.

Lasers Are The Future of Dentistry!




Over the past few years, laser dentistry has become increasingly more popular.  Laser dentistry has also played a major role in early detection of various oral health issues, improving precision treatment and reducing the pain and recovery time for patients.

There are many benefits to laser dentistry as well. Soft tissue lasers can be applied to identify cavities at earlier stages to reduce the damage to your teeth. Lasers can also be used in dental fillings and to seal tubules that are responsible for tooth sensitivity. Lasers can also be used in reshaping gum tissue, crown lengthening, removal of soft tissue and muscle attachment.

Many dentists believe that lasers are the future of dentistry!
