In many cases, a small gap between teeth is not a big deal as far as oral health is concerned. It may have only minimal to no impact on your ability to chew and speak. But still, you might feel self-conscious about the way that extra space looks. Will you have to get braces, or can you use veneers to fix gaps? In many cases, veneers are a great solution! This blog post explains what you should know.

Ideally, teeth should come in straight, rising up through the gumline in a way that allows them to fit comfortably with the teeth next to them and across from them. When that happens, they can contribute to an even bite and efficient chewing. However, teeth do not always follow that path. Some emerge at an angle, and others may even grow almost entirely sideways beneath the gums. This situation is especially common with wisdom teeth. Why are these third molars so prone to unusual positioning, and what else should you know about sideways wisdom teeth? This blog post explains.

The wisdom teeth are the third set of molars, which are located at the back of the mouth.

It is normal for your mouth to feel sore after wisdom tooth extractions. Most people recover fairly quickly and are back to feeling like themselves within just a week or two.

If you lost a tooth near the front of your mouth, you might be quick to replace it. After all, you want your smile to look nice! But what if you lose a tooth near the back of your mouth, where onlookers would not readily notice its absence? Is tooth replacement still important, or can you leave the space empty? In this blog post, you will learn key reasons why filling in that gap is beneficial regardless of which tooth you are missing.

When you visit your dentist for a dental implant consultation, you might get good news. You could be told that everything in your mouth looks great, and you can move forward with tooth replacement almost immediately. However, there is also a chance that you will need some preliminary care before your mouth is ready to support your new smile. What are some procedures that are often needed before dental implant placement? This blog post discusses the most common.
