Are
Your Teeth Sensitive?
Have you ever gone out on a crisp autumn
morning and actually avoided breathing in for fear of
causing tooth pain from the cold air? Or how about sipping
coffee so carefully to one side of your mouth just to
avoid that one tooth that’s been driving you crazy? Well,
you’re not alone. Tooth sensitivity is tooth discomfort
in one or more teeth that is triggered by temperature
extremes, sugary or sour foods and drinks, and even by
a misaligned bite. The pain can be sharp, sudden, and
shoot deep into the nerve endings of your teeth creating
pain in your teeth, jaws, neck and ears. Interested? Then

Diagnodent:
New Dental Laser Can Detect Hidden Cavities
One of the most common treatments we as dentists do for
our patients is to identify and fill cavities. Since even
the smallest amount of decay can threaten an entire tooth,
finding and filling cavities is the key to preventing
future problems. That's why dentists spend time taking
yearly x-rays and poking at your teeth with a sharp probe
every time you have an exam. However, many people don't
realize that these methods of decay detection are only
50% to 75% successful.

Dental
X-Rays Go Digital
Do you have fond childhood memories of a big lead shield
draped over your body as you bit down on a thin, sharp
x-ray that cut the roof of your mouth or the underside
of your tongue? That scenario is now a distant memory,
thanks to the invention of digital radiography and computerization.
Patients still have to open wide, but the dental film
has been replaced by a smooth electronic senor and the
lead shield is now made of space age materials that weigh
less than your average fall coat.
