Preventing Tooth Decay in Texas

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Preventing Tooth Decay in TexasIn , tooth decay is one of the most common childhood problems, yet tooth decay also affect adults. Travis Walk Dental Care serves people from 18 to 100 years old to help fight tooth decay.

Bacteria are a common cause of tooth decay. Bacteria live in your mouth and combine with plaque and acids to break down the enamel coating on your teeth. The breakdown of your tooth enamel can often result in the development of small holes in your teeth which are known as cavities. The breaking down of your tooth enamel in is known as tooth decay, and it is a serious dental problem for children and adults in Texas.

Texas tooth decay is typically a result of diet and oral hygiene choices. When sticky foods are consumed and allowed to sit on the teeth, or foods full of sugars and starches are consumed frequently throughout the day, tooth decay can result. Foods to avoid include soda and sugary chewing gum; these foods tend to stay around for a while and create an environment where bacteria thrive. To help prevent tooth decay, simply limit sugary and starchy foods between meals. Also, brushing at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing at least once a day, and visiting your local Dallas dentist in Texas for regular check ups and cleanings will help prevent tooth decay.

Tooth-Colored Fillings in Dallas

Friday, March 19th, 2010

Tooth-Colored Fillings in Dallas Hello! Welcome to the Travis Walk Dental Care blog. If this your first visit, we hope you find useful information about our Dallas cosmetic dentistry practice. If you have read some of our previous articles, we are glad you checked back with us. We post new articles regularly.

My name is Dr. Jospeh Miranda, DDS. I have been practicing dentistry in Dallas since 1991. Travis Walk Dental Care is a full-service dental office located at 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, in Dallas, Texas. In addition to providing comprehensive examinations and deep cleanings for clients in the Dallas area, we perform all types of tooth restorations.

When a tooth has decay or has been damaged, a dental restoration is needed to ‘restore’ the tooth to its previous intact condition. A dental filling is one of the most common and well-known types of restorations. A dental filling is used to repair decayed or damaged tooth surfaces. Most people have a few fillings in their mouth.

If you have old silver amalgam fillings, we can replace them with nearly-invisible fillings tooth colored. These fillings are made out of a strong composite resin. Many of our cosmetic dentistry patients have replaced their old silver fillings with fillings matched to their teeth. You can improve your smile instantly and relatively inexpensively by getting rid of the ‘metal’.

Another reason some clients have had their old fillings replaced is because they are concerned about the possible heavy metal toxicity of the mercury in the silver.

If you would like to replace your amalgam fillings, call us at 214-522-4330 to schedule a consultation. We are currently accepting new patients and would be happy to show you around our Dallas cosmetic dental office and introduce you to our friendly team.

Smile – it increases your face value!
