Dentist Staten Island New York
If you are looking for an expert dental practice that will provide you with complete dental care, you should visit us at DiBona & Scamardella Dental Studio. When you come to our dental practice you will be seen by our expert
dentist Staten Island New York, either Dr. Mark A. Scamardella or Dr. Karen DiBona.
Although it is important to come to our dental practice for dental exams and dental cleanings, it is also important to visit us when you experience other warning signs. If you are experiencing tooth pain it can be a sign that you have a dental cavity, or that you have a tooth that is infected in its center. If the latter is the case, you will need to have a root canal treatment in order to save the tooth. And, the sooner this type of treatment is performed the more likely it is to be successful. As it stands, root canal procedures are successful in over 90% of cases. If the problem is being caused by a dental cavity, this can easily be treated by our
dentist Staten Island New York. Other signs that indicate you should come in for an immediate dental visit are tooth sensitivity, or jaw pain. You may be experiencing problems from TMJ or teeth grinding at night. These problems can end up causing serious damage to teeth, such as cracks in tooth enamel. TMJ can also end up causing problems with your bite. Jaw pain can be a sign of either teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, or TMJ. If you have loose fillings, they should be fixed immediately so that infection is not able to enter the center of the tooth through the loose fillings. Chipped teeth can also lead to tooth loss in some situations, so it is important that it is quickly treated. If the gums in your mouth are sore or red, it can be an indication of gum or tooth problems.
