Without dental x-rays, dentists cannot give a definitive diagnosis of their patient’s dental health. In this article, we will discuss questions such as: What are dental x-rays?

Does your mouth feel dry? Do your lips and tongue feel cracked? Dry mouth is a common problem which affects 10 per cent of the general population and 25 per cent of older people. Dry mouth is usually a symptom of an underlying issue such as side effects from medications, medical treatment, salivary gland issues, or diet and lifestyle problems. If dry mouth is left untreated, it can eventually lead to tooth decay, tooth loss, and oral infections inside the mouth. Treatment and management of dry mouth can include adjusting medications, hydrating regularly with water, or improving your oral hygiene

At Capstone Dental we provide the best teeth whitening treatments available at an affordable price. It is important to be aware that all teeth whitening procedures can cause some level of sensitivity to hot and cold.

This whitening procedure is 100% Australian made and causes minimal sensitivity when used correctly. This treatment is effective in providing a whitening effect without greatly increasing the sensitivity of your teeth.
