Question 1

How often do I need to visit my Dripping Springs dentist in Texas?

Accepted Answer

The American Dental Association recommends you see your dental team at least two times per year and depending on your oral health, this frequency may increase. Your visits will include a cleaning and polishing, and at least one of the visits each year will include a checkup with Dr. Smith. Seeing us twice a year at minimum helps us help you to keep your oral health at its optimum level … the best it can be.Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar to help prevent gum disease. They also provide the opportunity for us to give you oral hygiene instruction and tips to keep your teeth and gums at their max. Also, with regular checkups, we have a better chance of finding issues when they are still small – saving you more extensive care, time, and money. Plus, if there is anything you’d like to change about your smile, such as a chip repair, brightening your smile, covering cracks, or redoing a restoration, this is a perfect opportunity to ask this Dripping Springs dentist about your options!

Question 2

Is professional teeth whitening really better than store-bought teeth whitening kits?

Accepted Answer

When you’re looking for teeth whitening in Dripping Springs, you have many choices – and you may be tempted just to purchase off-the-shelf whitening products at the local pharmacy because they seem cheaper than a customized option available from us. In most cases, though, off-the-shelf whitening will not give you the results you’re looking for. Results could range from unnaturally super-white teeth or teeth that are still drab and discolored. At Dripping Springs Family Dentistry, we customize a treatment plan with consideration of your unique smile and your challenge and then prescribe your teeth whitening solution based on identified unique needs. With us, you’ll achieve natural results quickly and safely.When you’re in next, ask us about teeth whitening, and if you’re new to us, call and we’ll set up your consultation.

Question 5

I need an emergency dentist in Dripping Springs! What do I do?

Accepted Answer

For your dental emergency, we have an after-hours emergency hotline! Call right away, and we’ll help you through. Dental emergencies can be stressful – partly because of not knowing what to do. Here’s a quick cheat sheet to help until you can get in to see us.Knocked-Out Tooth – Adults: Carefully handle the tooth by the crown (white enamel top) – never the root – and, if possible, gently rinse the root it under clean water – never scrub it. Try to put it back in its place and call us right away. If you can’t place it back in the socket, either put it next to your cheek or in a container of cold milk. Call us right away and bring the tooth to your appointment.Knocked-Out Tooth – Children: If the socket is bleeding, have your child bite on a clean piece of gauze, fabric, or paper towel. Put the tooth in a container of milk and call us right away.Toothache: Most toothaches are cause by decay or infection, so it’s important to come see us right away. If you have pain that comes and goes, know that it will never stay away … and it will quite possibly get worse. Call us, and first, we’ll get you out of pain. Then we’ll diagnose and treat the issue.Chipped or Broken Tooth: In many cases we can save a broken tooth, so give us a call and we’ll get you back to smiling as quickly as possible. If you can find the piece that broke off, bring it to us when you come.
