A smile is usually the first thing that gets noticed by others. Whether it’s answering a FaceTime call, walking into an important meeting, or even scrolling through Facebook. Most people aren’t born with perfect teeth, yet it’s hard to ignore an imperfect smile. Dr. Daniel can work with you to overcome dental flaws.

Bruxism is the grinding or clenching of the teeth that leaves patients with dull headaches, jaw soreness, or even chipped or cracked teeth. If this happens to you once in a while, it isn’t typically a cause for concern. We consider it a problem when it happens more consistently.

Day after day, you brush and brush and floss, and nothing happens. The pain is still there. Maybe you’ve had problems for as far as you can remember. Many battle with bad teeth for decades before finally doing something about it. Whether it’s due to age, poor eating habits, or oral hygiene issues, each of these can play a part in why tooth loss is a common problem in adults.

There is no doubt over-the-counter whitening strips are super popular. The desire for cleaner and whiter teeth has grown so much, it’s ballooned into a $3 billion dollar industry this year alone. The only problem? Products can leak onto the gums, causing inflammation and teeth sensitivity.

Root canal therapy (aka endodontic treatment) is a common procedure with success rates as high as 98%. Despite this, the American Association of Endodontists says 57% of people would rather spend 1 hour in a room with 10 spiders than have a root canal!

Sensitivity can be due to a lot of things - but sometimes a dental cavity can be the main cause. A cavity is caused by bacteria creating a hole in the tooth causing decay-like matter to form. As it gets progressively deeper into the tooth, it can cause an infection, lead to inflammation, and ultimately dental pain.

Routine dental exams with Dr. Daniel are an important way to prevent dental issues from starting or becoming worse. We recommend scheduling check-ups and cleanings at least twice a year in our San Ramon office. Patients with a higher risk of oral disease are encouraged to come more often.

When plaque remains in the mouth for a long time, it can harden into the gum line causing gingivitis (inflammation of the gums). This is a reversible symptom that can be seen in patients of all ages. But if left untreated, it causes periodontitis, also known as periodontal disease. It happens more commonly with adults.
