Technology and Patient Comfort

 

Pediatric Dentistry

Missing teeth can negatively impact oral comfort, function, and appearance, and may contribute to serious health complications. Drs. Eberhardt will work with you to determine what your best options are for restoring your missing teeth.

 

 

Sealants

Our teeth are constantly being covered with a sticky film of bacteria called plaque. When we eat or drink anything that contains sugar or starch, bacteria in the plaque turn the sugar and starch into acids that attack tooth enamel. These repeated acid attacks will eventually result in decay.

One of the most common places decay develops is on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. The grooves and depressions on your back teeth called pits and fissures are areas that are too small and narrow for toothbrush bristles to remove the plaque bacteria and tiny particles of food. The likelihood of developing tooth decay on the chewing surfaces begins early in life, so children and teenagers are obvious candidates for sealants. Sealants are routinely placed soon after the six and twelve-year molars erupt. Adults can benefit from sealants too, because one never outgrows cavities.

A dental sealant is a plastic material that is applied to the chewing surface of a back tooth, which acts as a barrier that protects enamel form plaque and acid. Dental sealants have been used safely and effectively for two decades. The procedure is simple and fast, and there is little or any discomfort.

Athletic Mouthguards

When it comes to protecting your mouth, a mouthguard is an essential piece of athletic gear that should be part of an athlete’s standard equipment from an early age. In fact, an athlete is 60 times more likely to suffer harm to the teeth when not wearing a mouthguard. They help buffer an impact or blow, that otherwise would cause broken teeth, jaw injuries or cuts to the lip, tongue or face. Mouthguards also may reduce the rate and severity of concussions.

We can make a custom mouthguard for you or your child that is comfortable and offers superior protection. Treating a sports related dental injury can cost thousands of dollars, therefore a custom mouthguard is a worthwhile investment.
