Our family had to move in the middle of the school year because of my job transfer. My husband and I were trying to avoid it, but delaying it may have cost me my job. Our 4 yr old son was in the middle of dental treatment too. We chose a family dentist that we thought we liked and had our records transferred here. Our previous pediatric dentist said that our 4 yr old has three cavities that need to be filled. We questioned filling the cavities, but the explanation was reasonable. Now the new dentist says that he won’t bother filling the cavities, I don’t understand. – Emilee

 

Emilee – Many dentists—pediatric dentists and general dentists—will decide to fill cavities on primary teeth. If the decay in a tooth progresses, the tooth may need to be extracted. And the bacteria from it can affect other teeth.

If primary front teeth need to be filled, those teeth would normally remain another two or three years. If molar teeth are the issue, they might remain another five or six year. The goal in filling the cavities is to stop the progression of decay and preserve the teeth because they can help guide permanent teeth to the correct position.

You may choose to get a second opinion on your son’s teeth, or you can ask your new family dentist to fill the cavities anyway, even if he doesn’t think it’s necessary.

I want 8 porcelain veneers but I know that I can’t get them because they cost too much. I hate the way my teeth look. What are my alternatives? – Danette

Danette – Your alternatives depend on what corrections need to be made to your teeth. If your teeth are misaligned or have spaces between them, braces or Invisalign will correct them, and those treatments may be less expensive than porcelain veneers. It is possible that contouring or reshaping your teeth will enhance your smile.

Some people consider porcelain veneers because they want whiter teeth, but depending on the cause of the stains in your teeth, professional teeth whitening from a dentist will brighten them.

Have consultations with a few cosmetic dentists to discuss your options. If porcelain veneers are required to correct your teeth, you will be able to find a dentist who makes them affordable for you. Payment plans or financing can help you get the smile you want without breaking your budget.
