August 29, 2019/0 Comments/in Braces /by joelgluck

Often, patients exploring orthodontic treatment wonder if it’s possible to only have their upper teeth worked on. The answer to that question is not a simple yes or no answer.

In order to receive the best answer to the question, we recommend partnering with a skilled Board-Certified orthodontic specialist to assess your current situation and provide a recommendation that will address your specific concerns, but also improve the overall health of your teeth and gums.

How Do Sealants Work?

December 8, 2018/0 Comments/in General /by joelgluck

Decayed, broken, and missing teeth mess up what could otherwise be a beautiful, radiant smile. Many people do not take dental care as seriously as they should which is why their teeth and smile may suffer down the line.

Teeth are vulnerable to decay in children, teenagers, and adults even with regular brushing. Tooth decay occurs mainly due to sugars from the foods you eat or drink, e.g. cookies, soda, juice, and candy. The bacteria present in plaque (the creamy, sticky substance found on the tooth’s enamel) converts the sugars into acid that attack the teeth. Cavities can develop as a result, especially in people who do not practice good oral hygiene.
