How Many Teeth Do I Have?

April 30, 2014

restorative dentistryFor today’s post, we want to offer an interesting bit of trivia, besides highlighting a few of our services.

First, the trivia: How many teeth does the average person have?

The average child has 20 teeth—10 on top and 10 on the bottom. For adults, the number is between 28 and 32, depending on whether you still have wisdom teeth. That number breaks down to 12 molars (including wisdom teeth), eight incisors, eight premolars, and four canines. Every one of these teeth is important and should be cared for regularly with brushing and floss.

Of course, some patients are missing one or more teeth. At Juno Beach Restorative & Aesthetic Dentistry, Dr. Keuning and Dr. Riley offer a range of restorative services to help patients replacing missing teeth. Those services include:

How Our Dentists Use Laser Dentistry

April 23, 2014

laser dentistrySince their introduction to the medical field, lasers have changed the way doctors and dentists offer care. With lasers, medical care is more comfortable and less invasive. What’s more, lasers give doctors more control over the entire process. As a result, results are more precise, appointments are shorter, and patients recover much quicker.

But how exactly are dentists like Dr. Keuning and Dr. Riley using dental lasers?

One common use for dental lasers is gum disease therapy. In the past, advanced gum disease therapy required a scalpel and stitches. Today, a dental laser can comfortably remove bacteria below the gumline without the need for stitches at all.

Gum re-contouring is also done with a dental laser. With gum re-contouring, Dr. Keuning and Dr. Riley can quickly and easily remove excess gum tissue from teeth, creating fuller, shapelier smiles.

Other uses for dental lasers include:

  • Cavity detection and treatment
  • Curing bonding materials
  • Biopsies
  • Some forms of teeth whitening

Do you want to know more about how dental lasers are changing today’s dental care? Call Juno Beach Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry for an appointment with Dr. Keuning or Dr. Riley. They would be happy to answer your questions. We serve patients from Juno Beach, North Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Tequesta, Jupiter, and nearby communities.
