Frequently Asked Questions from All Brite Dental!



Q:Are dental x-rays safe?
A:X-rays produce radiation which can also be found in sun, minerals in the soil, and appliances in your home.  Radiation can be dangerous but the dose of radiation you are exposed to is very very small.

Q: Does the dental drill hurt?
A:In some cases the dental drill can cause an individual to be uncomfortable.  We can administer numbing novocaine if a patient is feeling an increasing level of displeasure.  The good news is we offer pain free Laser Dentistry at both our offices.  Give us a call today for more information on the benefits of laser dentistry.

Q:Does over the counter teeth whitening products and toothpaste actually work?
A: Toothpaste and other products are very effective in removing stains from teeth.  Most over-the-counter teeth whitening products do not contain long lasting bleaching.  The bleaching you receive at your local dentist is much more powerful and will last longer periods of time. 

Q: Which toothpastes are the best?
A: When purchasing toothpaste first think about who you are buying for.  For children, it’s best to use toothpaste that contains fluoride.  Toothpastes that contain fluoride can help prevent cavities.
