Our dentist in Sammamish answers your most popular questions!
- How often should I visit the dentist? Visiting the dentist every six months is generally recommended for a routine check-up and cleaning. Regular visits help prevent dental issues, maintain oral health, and catch problems early. Your dentist may suggest a different schedule based on your needs or oral health conditions.
- When should I bring my child for their first dental visit? It’s a good idea to schedule your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Early visits help ensure your child’s teeth are developing properly and provide a chance to discuss preventive care, such as brushing techniques and dietary habits. Regular dental visits from a young age can help build positive experiences and establish good oral health habits.
- I’m scared of the dentist. How can you help? We understand that dental anxiety is common, and we offer various pain management options, including sedation dentistry and gentle techniques to ensure your comfort throughout your visit. We also do not judge you and have a comfortable office with a non-judgmental approach.
- Can Pine Lake Family Dentistry help improve my smile with cosmetic dentistry? Absolutely! We offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry treatments, including teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and dental bonding to enhance the appearance of your smile. Our skilled team will work with you to achieve the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
- Why is a dentist providing Botox? Botox can help with dental issues like bruxism (teeth grinding) and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, providing relief and improving overall comfort.
We offer Botox treatments because dentists have extensive knowledge of facial anatomy and musculature, which makes them well-qualified to administer these injections
