Arranging Cavity Care With Your Virginia Beach Dentist
The formation of a cavity spells trouble for your tooth, but that trouble can be minimized when you take steps to arrange restorative dental care. At our Virginia Beach, VA dental practice, we provide modern restorations when taking care of teeth affected by decay. If the problem is caught during a routine dental exam, it can be addressed before you have negative symptoms that draw your attention to the problem. People who do not attend these routine appointments can wind up with cavities that grow and worsen over time, which can lead to painful infections and other complications. While we are ready to help with a potentially serious cavity, you should know that your Virginia Beach dentist is also ready to help you avoid this problem in the future. (more…)
Discussing Clear Braces With Your Virginia Beach Dentist
If you have been thinking about correcting the problems that currently affect your dental alignment, or if you have put off orthodontic work after it was recommended, you may want to consider alternatives to traditional treatment. Conventional metal braces are effective at fixing gaps, overlaps, and other problems that affect a person’s smile when their teeth are poorly aligned. With that said, they can also have an unwelcome effect on the way you look, and may interfere with your ability to comfortably eat, and effectively clean your teeth. At our Virginia Beach dentist’s office, we can recommend an exciting alternative to these traditional appliances. By choosing to have your teeth straightened with clear braces, you can fix misaligned teeth discreetly, and enjoy the freedom of aligners that you can remove on your own. (more…)

Sure, a tendency to snore can be embarrassing, but should you treat your loud sleeping sounds like the symptom of a potential health issue? People who snore often do so because they have unresolved issues with sleep apnea. When this is the case, you can have more to worry about than just loud breathing. A person suffering from this condition can lose out on the health benefits a full night’s rest is supposed to provide. As a result, you can have trouble with focus and short-term memory, feel irritable, and face higher risks for other health troubles. Your Virginia Beach, VA dentist can discuss sleep apnea with you. For people who struggle with obstructive sleep apnea, we can provide an alternative to treatment with a CPAP machine, which people can find uncomfortable. (more…)
