How often should I have my denture relined? Relining dentures is a major component of the denture experience.

Dental Implants for Missing Teeth! Missing teeth impact a person’s oral, overall, and mental health. While there are several restorative options to correct and reverse these issues, most dentists recommend dental implants first. Implants are the only tooth-replacement option that replaces the dental crown AND tooth root, making them the most durable, long-lasting, and realistic option. Contact our implant dentist today to learn if you are a candidate for this state-of-the-art treatment.

The Importance of Flossing If you’ve ever been caught with a piece of spinach between your teeth, you should know the importance of flossing! Toothbrushes only clean the front, back, and chewing surfaces of the teeth. Without floss, it’s impossible to remove food particles (like spinach) and other debris that can wreak havoc on your oral health. We recommend that patients floss at least once a day, after their last meal.

New 5.0-star Review: "Complete professionalism and customer awareness. Dr. Waldman is exceptionally good with patients. I had several tooth implants that were begun with visits at Dr. Waldman, and he was excellent at explaining the process and getting me through what seems to be a very scary proposition. In the end it was great. That’s a lot to say about a dentist.The other hygienists and helpers at the office are also very professional. The lady that cleans my teeth is nothing more than a Mastro, she is gentle and does an exceedingly well job."
