Your child won't keep his or her first teeth forever, but that doesn't mean those tiny pearly whites don't need conscientious care. Maintaining your child's dental health now will provide health benefits well into adulthood, as primary (baby) teeth serve some extremely important functions. For one thing, primary teeth serve as guides for the eruption of permanent (adult) teeth, holding the space into which these new teeth will erupt. The crowns (tops) of the permanent teeth actually push against the roots of the baby teeth, causing them to resorb, or melt away.
Dental night guards are custom-fitted for each individual. This customization provides excellent protection from teeth grinding, jaw clenching, temporomandibular joint disorder, and more. A review of dental night guards finds, "Properly fitted mouthguards reduce the risk and severity of orofacial injury, to both hard and soft tissues, preventing thousands of dollars of trauma management".
If you are suffering from this type of pain, your dentist can help identify its source with a thorough exam and appropriate x-rays. Sometimes, the problem is a sinus or toothache or it could be an early stage of periodontal disease. There are two joints and several jaw muscles which make it possible to open and close the mouth.
Accidents can happen at any time during the day, that is why Karl Family Dental Associates has emergency dentists available for your needs. If you are having discomfort or tooth pain and you are looking for an emergency dentist in Staten Island, NY, then call our office today. What kind of dental problem makes you visit an emergency?

I came to Dr. Karl with several issues unfortunately aggravated by substandard work by my previous dentist. He was able to immediately identify the issues and implemented a plan to remedy the situation. I am extremely pleased with the work that has been done and appreciate the professionalism of both Dr Karl and his support staff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services to family and friends.

This is my second review. I do not know what to say about such a great office. The ladies are so helpful and Dr. Karl is amazing. I have never felt so comfortable at a dentist office. The work done on my teeth is amazing and painless. The cleaning was done without any problem or pain also. I would recommend them to anyone. Please know that if you decide to use them you are making the right decision.

I had the best experience at this dentist. The doctors were very nice and made me feel at ease with my entire experience. The staff is all very nice and accommodating. My schedule for works makes it hard for me to make appointments and they worked with me so that I was able to get the work I needed done in a short amount of time. I highly recommend this office. Very high level of dental care, and very high level of customer service. Dr. Hoffman is an artist!
