Tooth preparation: We’ll reshape your tooth to accommodate the crown or prepare the adjacent teeth for a bridge. Impressions: We’ll take an impression of your teeth, which will be used to create your custom dental restoration. Temporary restoration: While waiting for your permanent crown or bridge, we’ll place a temporary restoration to protect your teeth.

  Tooth Extractions

  Are you suffering from tooth pain due to damage or decay? At the dental practice of Dr. Michael Guldan in Winthrop, NY, we make tooth extractions a simple, stress-free procedure. Our team of professionals is dedicated to ensuring your comfort and providing effective solutions to alleviate tooth pain. Whether you are dealing with an erupted wisdom tooth, or a corroded tooth that is causing you immense pain, Dr. Guldan can help provide the relief you need. Emergency dental care is also available, contact our office today for immediate assistance. Understanding Tooth Extractions A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This procedure can be either simple or surgical, depending on the tooth’s condition and location. Simple extractions involve loosening the tooth and lifting it out, while surgical extractions involve removing a tooth that hasn’t erupted or is not easily accessible. Dr. Michael Guldan uses specialized tools and techniques to gently manipulate the tooth, causing the fibers holding it in place to loosen and disconnect. After the extraction, the site may be filled with bone grafting material to minimize bone tissue shrinkage. Reasons for Tooth Extractions There are four primary reasons why you might need a tooth extraction: Tooth Decay: Extensive decay can compromise the tooth’s structure, making it impossible to save. Tooth Damage: A severely damaged tooth due to injury or fracture might require extraction. Dental Abscess: A persistent infection in the tooth or surrounding gum tissue may necessitate tooth removal. Misalignment or Crowding: Removing a tooth can create space for orthodontic treatment or proper alignment of the remaining teeth. Following the extraction, we’ll provide detailed instructions for post-operative care to promote healing and prevent complications. If necessary, the extracted tooth can later be replaced by a dental implant or bridge to restore your smile. Schedule a Tooth Extraction Consultation in Winthrop, NY Don’t let tooth pain control your life. Contact Dr. Michael Guldan to schedule a consultation. We’ll assess your situation and determine if a tooth extraction is the best course of action. Trust our experienced team to provide a comfortable and painless extraction procedure, so you can get back to enjoying a healthy, pain-free smile.

We also have an adorable therapy dog named Benji that can help alleviate your anxiety and make your stay relaxing and comfortable. Understanding Root Canal Treatment Root canal treatment, also known as endodontics, involves a series of procedures aimed at treating the soft nerve tissue, or pulp, inside the tooth. This treatment becomes necessary when infection or inflammation develops in the pulp, which can lead to severe pain, dental abscesses, and even systemic problems if left untreated. Signs You May Need a Root Canal Several symptoms may indicate the need for a root canal, including: Constant and severe pain in your mouth Swelling and extreme sensitivity in your gums Sharp pain when biting down on food Lingering pain after consuming hot or cold foods If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s essential to schedule an examination as soon as possible to determine the best course of action.

Filling: We’ll fill the cleaned root canal space with a biocompatible material and seal it to prevent future infections.

  Dental Fillings

  Tooth-colored fillings are made of porcelain, which is a mixture of plastic and glass that not only looks good, but is also better for your teeth. Today’s tooth-colored filling materials physically attach or bond to natural tooth service. Tooth colored fillings are strong, yet flexible. They absorb and transfer force when you chew, just like natural teeth. Dental fillings help prevent plaque and bacteria from forming inside cavities, which could lead to further infections and complications. A composite (tooth colored) dental filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite filling. Because composite fillings are tooth colored, they can be closely matched to the color of existing teeth, and are more aesthetically suited for use in front teeth or the more visible areas of the teeth. Composite fillings may not be permanent and may someday have to be replaced. They are very durable, and will last many years, giving you a long lasting, beautiful smile. Reasons for composite dental fillings: Chipped teeth. Closing space between two teeth. Cracked or broken teeth. Decayed teeth. Worn teeth. Composite dental fillings are usually placed in one appointment. While the tooth is numb, your dentist will remove decay as necessary. The space will then be thoroughly cleaned and carefully prepared before the new filling is placed. If the decay was near the nerve of the tooth, a special medication will be applied for added protection. The composite filling will then be precisely placed, shaped, and polished, restoring your tooth to its original shape and function. If you or someone you love is interested in composite dental fillings to reinforce the strength of your teeth and prevent chipping, cracking or bacteria buildup, schedule a consultation with Dr. Michael Gulden today for a tooth colored composite filling.

  Sleep Apnea Treatment

  Obstructive sleep apnea is a common yet often underdiagnosed sleep disorder that can significantly impact your quality of life. Obstructive sleep apnea involves a decrease or complete stoppage of airflow despite an ongoing effort to breathe. It occurs when the muscles relax during sleep, causing soft tissue in the back of the throat to collapse and block the upper airway. This leads to partial reductions (hypopneas) and complete pauses (apneas) in breathing that last at least 10-30 seconds during sleep. This can lead to abrupt reductions in blood oxygen saturation, with oxygen levels falling as much as 40 percent or more in the worst of cases. At our dental practice in Winthrop, NY, we specialize in providing personalized, effective sleep apnea treatment options to help you breathe easier, sleep better, and enjoy a more energized life. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Guldan today and regain your restful sleep and daytime energy. Understanding Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Its Effects Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the muscles in the throat relax during sleep, causing the soft tissue to collapse and block the airway. This leads to disrupted breathing, decreased oxygen levels, and frequent awakenings throughout the night. Common symptoms of sleep apnea include loud snoring, gasping or choking sounds during sleep, and excessive daytime sleepiness. Customized Sleep Apnea Treatment Options at Our Winthrop, NY Dental Practice Dr. Michael T. Guldan is committed to helping you find the most effective sleep apnea treatment for your unique needs. We offer a range of solutions to alleviate snoring and sleep apnea, including: Oral appliances: Custom-fitted oral devices can help reposition the jaw and tongue, preventing the airway from becoming blocked during sleep. CPAP therapy: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy uses a machine to deliver a constant stream of air through a mask, helping to keep the airway open throughout the night. Lifestyle modifications: In some cases, making changes to your daily habits, such as losing weight, avoiding alcohol, or adjusting sleep positions, can significantly improve sleep apnea symptoms. Dr. Michael Guldan will work closely with you to evaluate your condition and determine the most suitable treatment option for your sleep apnea. Start Your Journey Towards Better Sleep and Improved Health in Winthrop, NY Don’t let obstructive sleep apnea rob you of the restful sleep and vitality you deserve.
