My spouse snores and keeps me up all night. What can you do?

I want whiter teeth, can you help me?
Yes we can! There are a number of procedures available to help whiten your smile, from at-home bleaching products to in-office LumaLight teeth whitening process. Dr. Wolpo can help evaluate your potential for whitening your teeth, based on their current color and the causes of any discoloration. — If you’re happy with the shape and position of your teeth, and simply wish they were whiter, we offer two methods of teeth whitening. Opalescence is a take-home whitening system that utilizes custom-fit trays, worn over the teeth with whitening solution inside. This process generally takes about 2 weeks. — Or, if you want results faster, we can do an accelerated in office bleaching treatment using LumaLight which gives you a brilliant smile in 90 minutes.
I know I’ll be numb after the procedure. But, will my tooth hurt after the numbness goes away?
Yes: all teeth hurt to some degree after such a procedure. Normally, motrin will control the pain, but we’ll prescribe stronger pain medication if we think you’ll need it in your particular case. If the recommended medication is not working, please call the office.
How can the tooth hurt if its nerve is gone after a root canal?
The inner, damaged tissue of your tooth has been removed during the root canal treatment. However, your tooth is still very much alive on the outside. Your pain comes from having had an infection and/or inflammation in the bone along the outside of the tooth. Medication will control this; time will heal it.
