Frequently asked questions 


  • What is general dentistry, and why is it important?

    General dentistry includes a variety of services aimed at maintaining your overall oral health, such as routine exams, cleanings, and preventive care. Regular visits to a general dentist help detect potential issues early, ensuring a healthier mouth and preventing costly or serious problems down the line. At Zachary Papadakis DDS & Associates, we emphasize preventive care to maintain your teeth and gums in the best shape possible.

  • What types of dentures do you offer?

    We offer both full dentures for patients missing all their teeth and partial dentures for patients missing some teeth. Both are customized for a perfect fit and designed to restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile comfortably. Additionally, we offer implant-supported dentures for greater stability and comfort.

  • How does cosmetic dentistry improve my smile?

    Cosmetic dentistry offers several treatments that can enhance the appearance of your teeth. We offer services like teeth whitening, veneers, and smile makeovers to correct issues such as staining, chips, cracks, and misalignment. Whether you’re looking for a brighter smile or a complete transformation, our team at Zachary Papadakis DDS & Associates can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted.

  • Can I get straight teeth without traditional braces?

    Yes, with Invisalign, we can straighten your teeth using clear aligners that are nearly invisible and removable for eating, brushing, and flossing. Invisalign is a comfortable and discreet option for adults and teens alike who want to straighten their teeth without the appearance of traditional metal braces.

  • How long do dental implants last?

    Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth and can last a lifetime with proper care. Implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone to provide a stable and durable foundation for replacement teeth. With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants offer long-term benefits, including improved function and appearance.

  • What should I do if I have a dental emergency?

    If you have a dental emergency, such as a broken tooth, severe toothache, or knocked-out tooth, it’s important to seek immediate care. At Zachary Papadakis DDS & Associates, we provide same-day emergency care to address urgent dental issues, alleviate pain, and prevent further damage. Call us immediately, and we’ll ensure you receive the necessary care as quickly as possible.

  • What’s the difference between full dentures and partial dentures?

    Full dentures are used when all teeth are missing in an upper or lower jaw, while partial dentures are used when only some teeth are missing. Partial dentures fit between your natural teeth and help restore your smile and functionality. Both types are custom-made to fit your mouth comfortably and look natural.

  • How long does it take to straighten teeth with traditional braces?

    The length of time it takes to straighten teeth with traditional braces depends on the severity of your dental issues. Most patients wear braces for about 18 to 24 months. During your initial consultation, Dr. Papadakis will assess your needs and give you an estimated treatment timeline, ensuring that you’re comfortable and informed throughout the process.

  • Do you offer sedation for dental procedures?

    Yes, we offer sedation dentistry for patients who experience dental anxiety or need more extensive treatments. We provide options like oral sedation and IV sedation, ensuring you are relaxed and comfortable throughout your procedure. Our goal is to make your visit as stress-free as possible.

  • How can I prevent gum disease?

    Gum disease can be prevented with proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits. At Zachary Papadakis DDS & Associates, we provide periodontal therapy to treat and prevent gum disease. Regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that lead to gum disease. If we catch gum disease early, treatments like scaling and root planing can restore your gum health and prevent further damage.
