Welcome to "What kid's want to know."

Here are some frequently asked questions of Dr. Hollar...

When can I brush after a fluoride treatment?

It's usually a good idea not to brush your teeth for about 30 minutes after a fluoride treatment at the dentist's office so that the fluoride has time to work. If you brush too soon, all of the fluoride will be brushed off your teeth before it has a chance to work.

Why must you get your wisdom teeth removed?

Wisdom teeth may not need to be removed. Many people have their wisdom teeth removed to prevent or stop infection, tooth decay and bone loss. Did you know that some people don't have wisdom teeth.

How is a cavity filled and replaced?

First the tooth is cleaned and cavity (decay) is found. The tissue sometimes is numbed to make our kids comfortable. Then the decay is removed with the high speed handpiece (dental drill). A filling material is placed in the cavity and allowed to harden to prevent further decay.
