Fall River Area Tooth Implant Dentistry: When a Bridge or a Denture Just Isn't Enough

A tooth implant can be a more natural-looking and permanent solution to missing or damaged teeth than dentures, which can be difficult for many people to adust to.

Fall River area dentists Dr. Paul M Ponte and Dr. Paul P Ponte have the experience and training to help replace missing teeth with permanent dental implants that look, feel and function just like your natural teeth. We also provide dentures, cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening.

Like many people in the Fall River area, you can qualify for implant dentistry if you have jawbone ridges in good shape and healthy oral tissues. Contact us today to see if you're a candidate.

At Tucker Road Dental Associates we're committed to working with you to find affordable options. Don't let concerns about the cost of dental implants keep you from considering this beautiful and permanent solution to your dental problems.

It's easy to make an appointment right now. Just call our helpful staff at (508) 996-3133 or complete our easy online form. Now is the best time to get the top dental care you deserve - we're looking forward to meeting you!

Oral Health for Seniors

At Tucker Road Dental Associates we believe that the good habits of effective daily brushing and a healthy diet will help the aging person adapt to changing conditions. Reduced salivary flow and addition of medications can affect oral health dramatically.

Teeth may darken because of long-term exposure to plaque and changes in the dentin within the tooth. The gums may recede and uncover the roots, making them more prone to decay. Poorly-fitting or poorly-cleaned dentures, illness, and some medications increase the severity of the problem. For more information regarding dental problems of seniors, please call our office at (855) 881-2506.

Finding the Perfect Toothpaste

From whitening to ultra-sensitive, there are a multitude of toothpastes available on today's market. How do you choose? Start by selecting one with fluoride, which will prevent cavities. Other things to consider are flavor, whitening potential, tartar control and price. Often the biggest difference between two brands is packaging, so don't get hung up on the finer details. Consider selecting fun flavored toothpaste for children, as it will encourage them to brush regularly.

Very young children require a fluoride-free variety for safety. Call us at (855) 881-2506 and Dr. Paul Ponte will be happy to recommend a toothpaste that’s right for your family.

Dental Decay & Sealants

Dr. Ponte will tell you that regular brushing and flossing lowers the chance of your children developing cavities. However, sometimes good habits alone aren't enough. The most decay-prone areas of teeth are the grooves and depressions on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. These vulnerable areas require further preventive care. To protect kids' teeth from decay, a plastic-like coating called a sealant should be painted on the chewing surfaces of all the back teeth.

It's a simple process that's extremely effective: studies have shown that sealants can reduce tooth decay by as much as 90% to 100%. Please call Tucker Road Dental Associates at (855) 881-2506 with any questions you may have about the benefits of using a sealant in preventing dental decay.
