Can I Use a Waterpik Instead of Floss

Question number nine. Can I use a water pick instead of floss?

Question number eight. Does mouthwash really work?

Question number seven. This question I get all the time. How many times a year should I go to see my dentist? You want to get in the habit of having your teeth professionally cleaned four times per year. I know this sounds like a lot, but it’s a really small price to pay if it means that in exchange, you’ll have peace of mind, and you’ll have really clean teeth.

Question number six. At what age do I start taking my kid to the dentist? The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends taking your child to the dentist by the age of one or within six months after the first tooth erupts. Baby teeth begin growing in around six months of age, now if we’re being realistic it can be tough to bring in such a young child to the dentist.

And, the number three most commonly asked question is, what kind of toothbrush should I use? If you’re asking this question, it means you’re concerned about your dental health, and this is a good start.

Number two, should people be concerned about the radiation from dental x-rays? Patients frequently declined dental x-rays because they’re worried about the harmful effects and the potential radiation exposure they can be experiencing. The answer to this question is that while dental x-rays do produce radiation, the amount or dose is infinitely small and does not pose a risk. Not to mention with the advent of things like protective barriers and digital sensors, dentist are further reducing the amount of exposure to their patients. For comparison, here are a few things that most people come across in their daily lives that also exposed them to radiation.

She came to me, and really, she had neglected her teeth because she had this terrible fear of dentists, surprise, surprise.
