You’ve all seen it – those bright white spots on otherwise healthy, straight front teeth. Well, the offending teeth just had bonded orthodontic brackets removed after two years of “wearing braces.” Sometimes the white spots are just an unavoidable byproduct of the bonding procedure. Or sometimes the spots can be a result of poor home care, of accumulated plaque that has decalcified the teeth. So what to do?

It is not easy to mask those white spots. We have bleached these teeth but not always successfully. Sometimes the white spots whiten still more and the situation doesn’t get better. We have prepared the area and bonded composite to the offending areas. This has met with success but the patient has to beware of coffee, red wine and smoking. Bonding will last for several years before it stains and has to be replaced. Another option is veneers – esthetically superior to bonding and long lasting without color change. Veneers are more expensive and are not reversible – which means that the tooth cannot not be restored to its original state and must always be covered.

A difficult choice and up to the patient and her parents to make with help from us at my Long Island dental office!evelyn free dirty dancing free download free cars download london to brighton

It was my day off and I was checking out some daylilies when the text message came. It was the Director of the Chamber of Commerce asking if I could help out a girl with a toothache out on a boat in the Sound. This was a first. So I called the girl back and she said that she was from Vermont and sailing down the east coast about three hours outside of Port Jefferson Harbor. The wind was down and they were waiting for it to pick up. (Already I was feeling seasick.) Her lower left molar had been throbbing for three days and she was clocking the Ibuprofen. Her symptoms sounded like a pulpitis and probably a root canal was in order.

I felt that the prudent course of action was to refer her to an endodontist who could diagnose and treat the offending tooth quickly and easily. I gave her the name, and at length she docked, took a taxi to his Long Island dental office, had the work completed, returned to the boat and set sail to continue her journey.my boss s daughter dvdrip
