- Grinding of Teeth: Do you wake up with jaw pain or headaches? You might be grinding your teeth at night, a problem your dentist can help manage to protect your teeth and alleviate discomfort.
- Gum Disease: Ignoring gum disease can lead to tooth loss and other health problems; your dentist can diagnose and treat it through cleanings, scaling, and other procedures.
- Tooth Abscess: If you have a throbbing pain and swelling near a tooth, you may have an abscess, a serious infection your dentist can treat with root canal therapy or extraction.
- Tooth Decay: Tooth decay, or cavities, is damage to your tooth's enamel caused by bacteria, and your dentist can fill cavities to prevent further damage and pain.
- Tooth Loss: Tooth loss is the absence of one or more teeth, and a general dentist can help replace missing teeth with dentures, bridges, or implants.
- Toothache: A toothache signals a need for dental care. Your general dentist will find the causelike a cracked tooth or gum diseaseand develop a personalized treatment plan.

To provide comprehensive and patient-centered care, Dr. Ngo offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Implant-Supported Bridge: Instead of relying on nearby teeth for support, an implant-supported bridge uses implants for a secure and durable solution for missing teeth.
- MDI Mini Dental Implant: MDI Mini Dental Implants are small, but strong, artificial tooth roots used to support dentures or individual replacement teeth, offering a more secure and comfortable fit than traditional dentures.
- Dental Implant: To replace missing teeth permanently, dental implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone and fuse with the bone over time, providing a stable base for new teeth.
- Dentures: Dentures offer a comfortable and functional way to regain your smile and improve your quality of life after tooth loss.
- Lower Dentures: Lower dentures are custom-made appliances that replace missing lower teeth, improving your bite and overall oral health.
- Upper Dentures: Upper dentures are removable replacements for missing upper teeth, improving chewing, speaking, and your smile.
- Root Canal: Root canal therapy is a treatment that addresses the inner portion of a tooth to save it from extraction when it's severely damaged or infected.
- Restoration of Dental Implants: If your dental implant is experiencing issues like loosening or infection, restoration aims to correct these problems and restore its functionality.
- Porcelain Veneers: Porcelain veneers are thin shells of tooth-colored porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance, covering chips, stains, or gaps.
- Composite Fillings: Composite fillings are tooth-colored materials used to repair cavities and restore damaged teeth.
- Dental Bridge: A dental bridge is a permanent solution to replace one or more missing teeth, using artificial teeth anchored to the surrounding natural teeth.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Ngo:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is directly linked to your overall health. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter your bloodstream, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care is crucial for maintaining not only healthy teeth but also your overall well-being.
- My medications make my mouth constantly dry. Is this a dental problem?
- Yes, dry mouth (xerostomia) is a common side effect of many medications. Saliva is the body's natural defense against cavities, so a dry mouth significantly increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Dr. Ngo can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- My dentures don't fit as well as they used to. What can be done?
- Over time, the jawbone and gums change shape, sometimes causing dentures to loosen. Dr. Ngo can perform a relining procedure to reshape the denture for a better fit, or create a new denture if the existing one is significantly worn. A proper fit is crucial for comfortable eating and speaking.
- What is the difference between a crown and a filling?
- A filling is like a patch to repair a small area of damage, while a crown is like a cap or helmet that covers the entire tooth. Crowns are used when a tooth is significantly damaged, cracked, or has had a root canal, providing extra strength and protection.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Ngo, can perform many root canals. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary. Dr. Ngo will determine the best course of action for your specific needs.
- Is it normal for my gums to bleed when I brush or floss?
- Healthy gums do not bleed. Bleeding while brushing or flossing is usually the first sign of gum inflammation (gingivitis). This is often reversible with a professional cleaning and improved daily oral hygiene, but if left untreated, it can progress to more serious gum disease.
- Are dental implants a good option for replacing missing teeth?
- Dental implants are often an excellent long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They provide a secure foundation for a crown or bridge that looks and feels like a natural tooth, and can help preserve the jawbone.
- What is an oral cancer screening and is it part of my check-up?
- An oral cancer screening is a quick, painless part of every routine dental exam. Dr. Ngo will visually inspect your lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat for any unusual sores or discolorations. Early detection is key to successful treatment.
