Don’t be a Metal Mouth!

January 13, 2011

The dental world has made great strides in the past few decades. Thanks to recent technological advances, it is now easier than ever to get dental work done and get the results you were hoping for. I’m Dr. Brad Greenfield, and I proud to offer my patients quality dental care using the most up-to-date training and technology.

What’s Eating Your Teeth?

December 21, 2010

First of all, acid erosion occurs when acidic substances come in contact with tooth enamel. The acid causes tooth enamel to soften and release valuable minerals.

Problem is, if acid comes in contact with teeth again, before saliva’s restoration powers have worked their magic, the tooth cannot recover. Enamel wears down (we call this tooth structure loss or TSL), and the sensitive underlying layer of dentin can become exposed.
