You don’t need to be particularly prepared. All you need to do is complete a health questionnaire and brush your teeth thoroughly before seeing the dentist at the facility. You can find more information about the first visit and sample documents here: first visit.
The child’s first regular visit to the dentist should take place around the age of 2-3 years and should be preceded by an adaptation visit. We have described the whole process of familiarising children with the dentist and the treatment room in the Parent’s Guide.
Tooth sensitivity is characterised by a feeling of pain or severe discomfort that occurs as a reaction to a stimulus. What is the stimulus? Usually cold or sugars in food. So, if while drinking a cold drink or eating ice cream, you feel a sudden pain that lasts as long as your teeth are in contact with the stimulus, you probably have tooth sensitivity. You should then see your dentist, who will check the condition of your teeth and choose the right treatment for your ailment.
Absolutely! Treating teeth during pregnancy is even advisable, because untreated lesions and inflammation can spread bacteria throughout the body and cause complications, such as premature birth.
There can be many reasons for bleeding gums, so if you experience this problem, see your dentist. The dentist will check why your gums are bleeding and select the appropriate treatment. Do not underestimate gum problems, as untreated inflammation can lead to periodontitis.
Unfortunately, no. Toothache will not go away on its own, and if it becomes less intense for a moment, you can be sure that it will return – but stronger. That is why you should visit your dentist as soon as possible. We accept people with extremely severe pain outside the standard work schedule – as emergencies.
