A smile makeover addresses gaps between teeth and more: Advanced Dentistry of Westchester
Q. When I see myself on Zoom, I notice that my teeth have become worn and old-looking. How can I bring back my youthful smile?
A. Zoom get-togethers can make you feel self-conscious about every imperfection. If you are concerned about worn and discolored teeth, gaps, and chipped teeth, a smile makeover not only addresses all of these issues, but can make you look 15 years younger. Using a range of techniques from bleaching to porcelain veneers, we create beautiful and natural-looking smiles. Before any work is done, a photograph is taken and revised to reveal how your new smile will look. Once you love the look of trial veneers, the porcelain veneers are created, and you leave with the smile you’ve always wanted. We also share our approach to esthetics with other dentists through the classes we teach and our articles and chapters on cosmetic dentistry.

Understanding the benefits of Invisalign aligners: The Center for Cosmetic Dentistry
Q. Why should I consider orthodontic treatment with Invisalign and how do I determine if it’s the right treatment for me?
A. Crowded, uneven, and misaligned teeth can cause discomfort, even self-esteem issues as well as functional concerns. Invisalign offers the convenience of removable aligners that are clear. Another benefit might a shorter treatment than with traditional metal braces. We offer free consultations for Invisalign. During this appointment with Dr. Robert Rioseco, if you decide to proceed, we can take your records during that first consultation and get you started immediately. Our office staff can also find out from your insurance if you have coverage for orthodontics, although you can contact your insurance company or your HR department directly. Many companies do have some benefits you can use towards Invisalign treatment.

Caring for your baby’s oral health
Q. What type of dental care is needed for infants and when should oral care begin?
A. It’s never too early to start taking care of your child’s teeth. Practicing good oral hygiene will help prevent or reduce tooth decay and pave the way for optimal health. Starting at birth, use a wet washcloth to wipe your child’s gums after feedings. As soon as you see your child’s first tooth erupt, begin using a soft toothbrush. On the first visit to the dentist, your child will be examined, receive a fluoride treatment, and have a cleaning. Keep in mind that in instances when children are anxious, an exam may be the only thing possible on the first visit. For future care, sealants are a good preventive tool. Sealants are coatings brushed onto permanent molars to decrease the possibility of getting cavities in the future.
