Many patients cannot get the dental treatment they want and need – not because they don’t feel like it or don’t care, but because they aren’t given options to make the treatment fit within their budget.
Ultimately, patients want to get their treatment done and are happy to pay for it when they are informed about everything up front. Nobody likes to be blindsided with financial surprises.
At Groves Dental Care, we make it a priority to communicate clearly and transparently with our patients.

There are multiple things that should be considered when looking for a great dentist for you and your family.
1. Look at Google reviews mainly: Make sure the dentist has more than 15-20 reviews and make sure the reviews are somehwhat recent (within 6 months to 1 year old)
2. Ask family, friends, and people in your local community: many times word of mouth can be a great way to determine reputation and legitimacy
3. Listen to your gut: Once you feel like you have done some research and feel confident about an office or place, make a consultation appointment and see how you feel after the consult
Many times, the only requirement to take into consideration before eating, is allowing the anesthetic to wear off. Otherwise, it is easy to bite your lips and cheeks without knowing it, which will cause some discomfort and bruising for several days to a week.
When extra care is needed
However, extra care should be taken with eating if you have had a tooth removed or a temporary prosthesis/ material placed in your mouth. These types of situations require some extra attention. Your dentist should give you these post-op instructions at the appointment.
Feel free to visit our post-procedure instructions section on the home page of our website if you want to see specific post-op instructions for certain procedures.
While every person’s body responds differently in different situations, a person who loses a tooth is much more susceptible to have a shifting tooth/teeth versus someone who has not lost a tooth.
If and when teeth do shift, they will generally drift forward towards the front of the mouth if there is space present as opposed to moving backwards in the mouth.
Shifting teeth can create a variety of issues including changes in bite, tilted teeth, loss of opposing teeth, food traps, and gum issues. Therefore, in most cases it is highly recommended to replace missing teeth whenever possible to avoid the potential for these issues.
Tooth Replacement Options
In many cases, your dentist can work with you to start a tooth replacement option right away if you need a tooth extraction as well, which can help to prevent these issues from ever forming. Whether you decide to go with a dental implant, bridge, or partial dentures, starting the process early is key!
Dental implants are one of the most popular choices available today as they are durable and comfortable. The process involves implanting a titanium post to replace the tooth root, and allowing that post to heal and bond to your jawbone. Once the healing process completes, you will have a full crown placed over the implant, and can use the tooth as normal. Dentures are another great choice, and we can help you work with partials if needed to replace just a couple of missing teeth.
Bridges are a third option, and another popular choice. A bridge works by seating partial crowns on either side of the missing tooth, over those existing teeth, and attaching a full crown in the middle for the missing tooth.
If you have any questions, or if you want to schedule an appointment to look at your options for tooth replacement, don't hesitate to contact our team today for more information!
