<h3>
<strong>Take Baby Steps</strong></h3>
If you’re scared of the dentist’s chair, start small. Come in for an appointment just to talk about the strategies we can offer to help. For example, you could simply have an exam – no cleaning, no cavity-filling. It's an opportunity to make sure there aren't any serious problems and to build rapport with the <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/">dentist</a> and staff. You can talk to the dentist about the source of your fears and figure out how to get past them.<br />
<h3>
<strong>Try Various Strategies</strong></h3>
You don't have to take medications if you don't want to. In fact, other options are preferred. For example, some people find meditation can significantly relieve anxiety. You can listen to audio-books or music during your dental appointment, which can help distract you from the actual treatment. Reveal Dental uses such amenities as personal wireless headphones, warm blankets and dark glasses to help keep you comfortable and relaxed. Each room has television and WiFi access. An early morning appointment might also help, as that can be better than trying to have a dental appointment at the end of a stressful day.<br />
<h3>
<strong>What About Medications?</strong></h3>
Sometimes, medications are the best choice, especially if your fear is preventing you from getting routine care. Your dentist may be able to give a you a sedative medication to take before your appointment. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) during the treatment can also help calm and relax you. You may need someone else to take you to and from the appointment, so plan ahead.<br />
<br />
<strong>We hate to see people living with dental fears. We do our best to provide compassionate care with the use of the latest technology. In fact, if you haven't been to see a <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/">dentist</a> in a while, you might not realize how much things have changed.

<br />
<br />
The idea behind any kind of <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/insurance/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/insurance/">insurance</a> is that things happen, and they don't happen at a good time. Although medical insurance is much more common than it once was, dental insurance is often not included in a medical plan. Is it worth buying dental insurance? <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com" href="http://www.revealdental.com/">Reveal Dental</a>, your family dentist in Cedar Park, offers some thoughts on the subject.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
<strong>Cover the Basics</strong></h2>
Routine dental care is vitally important to maintain your oral health. You can certainly do your part by flossing daily and brushing twice a day. The American Dental Association recommends twice annual visits for <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-hygiene/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-hygiene/">cleaning</a> and examination. However, such care can add up, especially if you have multiple family members. Forgoing that care may simply lead to much greater expense down the road, and can increase the chance of multiple cavities, or even gum disease.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<strong>Look At All Possibilities</strong></h2>
Dental insurance plans vary. Some include all or part of routine preventive care, others cover only more extensive (and expensive) care like fillings, crowns, <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/">implants </a>or dental surgery. One big advantage of those plans that cover routine care is the opportunity to catch problems early in the game and keep them from getting worse. If you are lucky enough to have excellent teeth and little susceptibility to decay, however, it might be more expensive in the long run to pay insurance premiums than to regularly set a little aside for routine dental care.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<strong>Money Matters</strong></h2>
For large expenses like a root canal or a dental implant, a dental insurance policy can be a big help. You may still have a co-payment or need to meet a deductible, depending on the plan. Dental plans typically negotiate lower rates for dental services, something you may not be able to do as an individual. On the other hand, your dentist may offer payment plans or discounts for cash that are the equivalent or better than the rates a dental insurer can negotiate<br />
<br />
<strong>There's no one-size-fits-all answer to the dental insurance question. Do the research on the various plans available, then come in to see us at Reveal Dental so we can tell you what your <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/financial-information/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/financial-information/">options </a>are with us for the <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/">dentistry services</a> you need. Although it takes a little time, jumping through these hoops ensures you'll find the answer that's right for you.</strong>Reveal Dental Bloggerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04900497993839449250noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6895410688648839378.post-55939600784515689822016-05-31T14:43:00.000-07:002016-05-31T14:43:14.437-07:00Don't Short-Change Your Routine Dental CareIn tough economic times, everyone looks for ways to save money. However, there's an old English saying: “penny wise, pound foolish.” In other words, sometimes you must spend to save. <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com" href="http://www.revealdental.com/">Reveal Dental</a>, offering general dentistry in the Cedar Park area, note that this is particularity true of routine dental care.<br />
<br />
<strong>Why Do I Need an Appointment?</strong><br />
The purpose of a <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/general-dentistry/">general dentistry</a> appointment is for professional cleaning and a check-up. Although you floss daily and brush your teeth twice a day (you do, don't you?), it's nearly impossible to get your pearly whites as clean as they'll be after a professional cleaning. The check-up is opportunity to catch problems early.<br />
<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>Plaque and Tartar</strong><br />
No matter how good your <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-hygiene/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-hygiene/">oral hygiene</a>, it's almost impossible to prevent plaque build-up. The sticky film of bacteria begins to build within just a few hours of a good brushing. Once plaque gets started, it can change into tartar -- a hard coating that neither flossing nor brushing can remove. The dental hygienist has tools you don't -- and perhaps more importantly -- can see and get into places you can't reach, ensuring a really good cleaning.<br />
<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>Catch Problems Early</strong><br />
The point of the dental check-up is just that -- to check for early warning signs. In addition to cavities, you'll have a careful full mouth inspection, to look at the spacing of your gums and teeth, check for cavities and examine the condition of the gums. The dentist will inspect your throat, tongue, neck and head, checking for signs or problems like swelling, redness or signs of cancer.<br />
<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>The Cosmetic Aspects</strong><br />
In addition to the check-up part of a routine dental appointment, you'll probably have your teeth polished, which helps to remove surface stains and improve the appearance of your teeth. This is also a good time to talk to your dentist about any concerns you might have -- such as excessively sensitive teeth -- or to discuss cosmetic treatments like tooth whitening.<br />
<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>Remember, preventive dental care saves you money and saves your teeth. It can head off small problems early so they don't become large problems. Don't short-change your dental health.

Today's dentists offer many restorative and cosmetic procedures that would have made George willing to smile widely. Dental implants, for example, can solve the problem of missing teeth. The <span data-scayt_word="experits" data-scaytid="1" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">experts</span> at Reveal Dental in Cedar Park answer your top four questions about <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/">dental implants</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Does it Hurt?</b><br />
Dental implants must be inserted into the jawbone. This is what gives them their extraordinary stability and strength. To prevent discomfort during the procedure, the dentist will use a local anesthetic, which numbs the area where the work is being done. After the anesthetic wears off, you may experience some minor pain or soreness for a few days, but the pain usually goes away quickly.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>How Do I Protect the Implant?</b><br />
As with any surgical procedure, recovery from a dental implant insertion takes a while. Your implant is weakest immediately after the surgery. Excessive chewing can make you sore, as can hard foods. We'll give you a list of dietary recommendations to prevent problems. Staying well-hydrated also helps support the healing process. We'll also teach you how to care for your teeth and new implant during the healing process.<br />
<br />
<b>Will My Dental Implant Last a Long Time?</b><br />
The whole point of a dental implant is to provide you with a long-term solution. In general, a dental implant will last as long as 35 years. It is not uncommon for a dental implant to last even longer. Proper care makes a difference, of course. Your dentist will check the condition of the implant during your regular dental visits and suggest maintenance strategies.<br />
<br />
<b>How Noticeable Will the Implant Be?</b><br />
Most dental implants replace a missing tooth, so that part will definitely be noticeable, but for the better. Dental implants can be custom-colored and shaped to blend with your other teeth. After the healing process, the dental implant will simply look like another tooth, especially to people who are meeting you for the first time and don't know you lost a tooth.<br />

<h3>
</h3>
<h4>
1. Same-Day Crowns</h4>
If you’re looking for a smile fit for a king, a crown can help strengthen a broken or damaged tooth and improve its appearance. With the use of the <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/cedar-park-tx-based-reveal-dental-offering-innovative-planscan-technology/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/cedar-park-tx-based-reveal-dental-offering-innovative-planscan-technology/"><span data-scayt_word="PlanScan" data-scaytid="1" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important; text-decoration: none !important;">PlanScan</span></a> system we can prepare, create and insert your permanent crown on the same day. The <span data-scayt_word="PlanScan" data-scaytid="2" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">PlanScan</span> system uses state-of the-art CAD/CAM technology to seamlessly craft the perfect crown without the need for messy impressions or multiple appointments.<br />
<h4>
2. White Composite Fillings</h4>
Much more <span data-scayt_word="aesthetically" data-scaytid="4" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">aesthetically</span> pleasing than traditional silver fillings, composite resin fillings bond tightly to tooth surfaces. This material can fill the tiniest gaps in teeth and is designed to match the shade of your tooth. Traditional silver amalgam fillings contain mercury, and expand and contract over time causing gaps and cracks in teeth. Composite resin fillings are durable and can be used on front or back teeth. They are a great choice for people who prefer their fillings to look more natural.<br />
<h4>
3. Teeth Whitening</h4>
With the latest teeth-whitening technology, we can help you whiten and brighten your smile quickly and easily. Reveal Dental offers custom-fit wearable whitening trays with at-home bleaching gel, or we can perform in-office whitening procedures that take just over an hour. In-office power bleaching uses more concentrated gel and is applied directly to the teeth to accelerate the whitening process.<br />
<h4>
4. Porcelain Veneers</h4>
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made ceramic-porcelain shells that are designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are bonded to the front of the tooth changing color, shape, size, or length and cover imperfections to due to stains, gaps or crowding. Porcelain veneers look just like natural teeth; once they are placed, they blend in seamlessly with surrounding teeth, providing a beautiful, healthy-looking smile.<br />

Dental crowns can make a big difference in the function and appearance of your teeth, but proper fit is critically important. Not all dental practices have access to the latest technology, but Reveal Dental in Cedar Park, TX can now create porcelain crowns with the same-day technology available from <span data-scayt_word="PlanScan" data-scaytid="1" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">PlanScan</span>.<br />
<br />
<a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/cosmetic-dentist/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/cosmetic-dentist/">Porcelain crowns</a> have many benefits. They are strong and can be custom-colored for each patient. A porcelain crown is often the best choice for teeth under heavy biting stress, such as molars. In the past, a porcelain crown meant at least two dental visits -- one to fit a temporary crown, and one to place and shape the permanent crown. The dentist must create impressions at the first visit to get the right size and shape of the tooth. Once the crown is placed, the dentist may need to shape and refit repeatedly until it's just right.<br />
<span data-scayt_word="PlanScan" data-scaytid="2" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;"><br /></span>

The CAD system (Computer Assisted Design) allows the dentist to provide patients in the Cedar Park area with perfectly shaped, properly fitted crowns in a fraction of the time needed by previous techniques.

A broken or badly decayed tooth can be replaced, as can a tooth that has been knocked out because of an injury. Dental implants are growing in popularity, with about 3 million Americans choosing this solution each year. Reveal Dental wants to make sure you know all about <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/">dental implants</a> as a preferred tooth replacement option.<br />
<br />
As the name implies, a dental implant is actually placed into the jawbone. The implant itself is an artificial titanium root. Inserted directly into the jawbone (with the use of anesthetic, of course), the root provides a permanent sturdy attachment point for the new tooth. A new tooth made of resin or porcelain is then attached to the implant.<br />
<br />
Implants offer many advantages. Compared to a bridge, for example, they need not be removed for cleaning and food won't get stuck under them. The implant is secure and you can eat foods without worrying about it coming loose. Food temperature doesn't affect an implant. <span data-scayt_word="Aesthetically" data-scaytid="1" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">Aesthetically</span>, a dental implant pretty much looks like one of your own teeth, and is rarely noticeable.<br />
<br />
Dental implants are custom-made for each patient. The new tooth must be exactly the right size and shape for best function and to prevent uneven wear or pain when chewing. The dentists at Reveal Dental will perform a dental exam, which includes X-rays and molds of the teeth. Once the new tooth has been created, the dentist will administer a local anesthetic, insert the implant into the jawbone and attach the new tooth.<br />
<br />
It typically takes a few months for complete healing after an implant. You might have some soreness for a few days, but this quickly goes away and you can resume your normal diet and activities. Further follow up care -- other than your regular dental check-ups, of course -- is rarely necessary. Most people are suitable candidates for dental implants, but occasionally, those with jawbone shrinkage may have a challenge.<br />

<br />
Comfort might not be the first thing you think of when you look for a dentist's office. For many Americans, the dental experience is such that routine dental visits are unappealing and something they just never seem to want to do. Reveal Dental, your <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/">family dentist in Cedar Park</a>, wants to change that perception.<br />
<br />
Avoiding the dentist's office can have serious consequences. Cavities, of course – and they don't get better when they're ignored. But your oral health affects your overall health as well. Chronic low-level mouth infections stress the immune system. Poor oral health has been linked to heart disease, and sore teeth make it hard to chew your food well, which affects your digestion and diet.<br />
<br />
At Reveal Dental, we place a high premium on your comfort. We offer cozy fleece blankets to keep you warm and comfortable during the treatment process. We have televisions available in both waiting areas and treatment rooms. You can use personal wireless headphones to tune out anything you don't want to hear. We also have <span data-scayt_word="Wi-Fi" data-scaytid="1" style="background-attachment: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-image: url("data:image/gif; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 50% 100%; background-repeat: repeat-x !important; background-size: initial !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important;">Wi-Fi</span> access, so you can even bring your laptop or Smart Phone.<br />

</div>
<br />
There are various modern dentistry options available for tooth replacement. When evaluating these options, some important factors to consider are appearance, comfort, cost, and durability. It is also important to seek the advice of <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/">dentist</a> who has years of experience in this field. With that in mind, Reveal Dental in Cedar Park TX suggest <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/">dental implants</a> as a great tooth replacement option. Here are few reasons why.<br />
<h3>
<strong><br /></strong></h3>
<h3>
<strong>Lower Cost Long-term Solution</strong></h3>
Most tooth replacement options have a limited lifetime. However, with professional maintenance, dental implants are meant to last a lifetime, Therefore dental implants typically have a lower total lifetime cost compared to other options since there are no recurring replacement costs.<br />
<h3>
<strong><br /></strong></h3>
<h3>
<strong>Similarity to Natural Teeth</strong></h3>
Most patients have expressed that their replacement teeth should look and feels like natural teeth. A dental implant replaces the root part of the missing tooth and then is capped with a porcelain crown. This results in a natural-looking substitute which has similar functionality as healthy teeth. Patients can eat, talk, smile and even brush their teeth comfortably.<br />
<h3>
<strong><br /></strong></h3>
<h3>
<strong>Healthy Jaw Bone</strong></h3>
When you lose one or more teeth, the mouth does not receive the necessary stimulation required to promote healthy jawbone. As a result this leads to loss and deterioration of the jawbone. With dental implants the stimulation is restored and the natural jawbone is preserved.<br /><br />
<strong>Residents of Cedar Park and the surroundings areas who need <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/" href="http://www.revealdental.com/dental-implants/">t</a>eeth replaced are invited to contact Reveal Dental for comprehensive dental check-up.

essential in preventing plaque build-up. It can also stop chronic bad breath,
help strengthen gums and result in better overall dental health. From daily
brushing and flossing to routinely using mouthwash, there are several ways to maintain
good oral hygiene. The following 5 tips from our <a href="http://www.revealdental.com/our-team/dr-alkesh-sura/">Dentist in Cedar
Park</a> are simply a must for anyone that wants a cleaner and healthier mouth.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Cleaning the Tongue</span></strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Plaque build-up on the tongue
can result in bad breath, tooth decay, and other dental issues. As a result, it
is vital to clean the tongue daily to remove the plaque and bacteria. The best
way is to use tongue scrapers, which are available at our practice.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">To ensure proper oral care it
is important to stay away from certain foods. In fact, you should consume more
foods that help stimulate the flow of saliva. This protects the mouth from
tooth decay while effectively washing away food particles. One of the best
foods to consider is Apples – which have the ability to generate saliva and
eliminate food remnants and particles. As always, try and stay away from sugary
foods and carbonated beverages – notorious for staining teeth and causing
cavities.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Regular Flossing</span></strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Flossing has always played a
pivotal role in proper oral care. Not only does flossing remove food from the
teeth, it also helps prevent cavities and other common dental issues. As your <a href="http://www.revealdental.com/meet-the-team/">Cedar Park Dental
professionals</a>, we strongly recommend flossing at least once a day. If
possible, try to floss at home or work after each meal. This will help protect
the teeth while maintaining oral cleanliness and better dental health for years
to come.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Regular Checkups</span></strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">As always, regular dental
checkups are a must. This allows us to catch any issues before they cause
excessive damage. With regular dental checkups, you can also detect problems
early so to avoid tooth extraction, root canals, and even surgical procedures.
Dentists are also able to treat any related issues such as bleeding, pain, and
especially gum and oral disease.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Sealants for Optimal
Cavity Protection</span></strong><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Dental sealants are a great
way to protect the teeth from cavities and other issues. No truer is this then
for those that have experienced recurring cavities throughout their lives.
Sealants are made from protective materials that are applied to the chewing
surfaces of the teeth where decay occurs most.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<h3>
<strong>Do the Services Match Your Needs?</strong></h3>
Dental practices differ, and your family might have some specific needs. For example, if you have small children, you want a dentist who has worked with children and can help them feel at ease. Although dentists nearly always offer routine dental care, such as cleaning or filling cavities, some provide more specialized services; Someone in the family might have a broken tooth that needs an implant, or require a cosmetic treatment like veneers or whitening.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<strong>Are Services Readily Accessible?</strong></h3>
Nobody wants to spend a lot of time driving for dental care. Coordinating schedules between parents' work and children's schools can be a nightmare if the dentist's office is far away or has limited hours. Some dentists offer evening hours and will schedule multiple family members together to make the best use of time.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<strong>Finding a Good Match</strong></h3>
In addition to other considerations, you're likely to want a dentist whose personality is a good match with you and other family members. You deserve to be treated with respect and compassion, and to have a dentist who will work with you to meet your needs. An interview is probably one of the best ways to establish compatibility. It's also an opportunity to meet other members of the dental team, and to answer questions about insurance, scheduling and services.<br />
