Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have questions about our services? We’re here to help. Read answers to questions about dental services in Towson, MD.
What is the difference between a dentist and a prosthodontist?
A dentist provides general care like cleanings, exams, and fillings to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy. A prosthodontist is a dentist who has extra training to restore and replace teeth with treatments such as dental implants, crowns, bridges, and dentures. Prosthodontists are experts at more complex dental problems like missing and damaged teeth.
At our Towson office, Dr. Keith Boenning and Dr. Nate Dancykier are both dentists and prosthodontists. This means they can care for your everyday dental needs and also provide advanced solutions to restore your teeth and gums.
What should I do if I have a dental emergency?
Contact our office as soon as possible. Quick action can make a large difference if you have a broken tooth, severe pain, or a knocked-out tooth. While you wait to see the dentist, you can rinse your mouth with warm water, use a cold compress to reduce swelling, and take over-the-counter pain medicine if needed. Quick care can save your tooth and protect your overall oral health.
Can I go home by myself after a tooth extraction?
You should be able to drive home alone only if your dentist gave you local injections to numb your mouth. But if our dentist uses a general anesthetic, sedation, or an IV medication, you should NOT drive home. You should bring a friend or family member to drive you home in any case, to be safe.
How long do porcelain veneers take to put on?
You can get porcelain veneer treatment in two to three dental appointments. The first appointment is for consultation and preparation. This may take around 1 to 2 hours.
The second appointment will involve placing the veneers on the teeth. This process can take 2 to 4 hours. You may need a third appointment if we need to make any adjustments to the veneers. All in all, the veneer process takes several weeks from beginning to end.
What are the best treatments for periodontal disease?
The best treatments for periodontal disease include scaling and root planing, oral antibiotics, and surgery. You should also practice proper oral hygiene habits, such as brushing twice daily and flossing regularly. Our dentist or periodontist should provide you with professional teeth cleanings every six months. Dental cleanings can prevent and slow down gum disease progression.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants can last many years and even a lifetime with the proper care. Studies show that the success rate of dental implants after ten years is around 90-95%. But the lifespan of dental implants can vary based on your oral hygiene habits and the quality and quantity of the jawbone.
Regular dental check-ups and cleanings, along with good oral hygiene practices, can extend the lifespan of dental implants.
Are full dentures comfortable?
The comfort level of full dentures varies from patient to patient. You may feel some discomfort during the initial adjustment period. But your dentures will feel like real teeth over time. Implant dentures are also more comfortable than traditional dentures because you have the support of the implant posts.
What does a dental crown do?
A dental crown is a type of dental restoration that covers a damaged tooth. It can support and prevent further damage to a weak tooth after a root canal procedure. A crown can repair a broken tooth, cover a discolored or misshapen tooth, complete an implant, and anchor a dental bridge. We use crowns to improve the function and look of damaged or missing teeth.
