Asked Questions
Are There Sedatives For Dental Procedures?
Yes! There are several types of sedation, and we will find the best one for you based on the procedure and your personal sensitivity level.
How Often Should I See The Dentist?
Dentists typically recommend regular checkups every 6 – 12 months. Ultimately, the time between appointments will depend on you and your unique dental health needs.
When Should I Bring My Child to the Dentist for the First Time?
Tanty Family Dental recommends an initial pediatric appointment between their first and second birthday.
How Do I Prepare My Child For The Dentist?
Avoid fearful language and build excitement rather than anxiety. Tanty Family Dental’s friendly staff will provide the best possible care to ensure they can build healthy, lifelong dental habits.
What Should I Do If My Child’s Tooth Was Knocked Out?
Pick up the tooth by the crown and pop it in a glass of milk. Schedule an emergency appointment with us at (262) 542-8382 so we can put the tooth back in the socket.
What Are The Most Popular Procedures?
The most common cosmetic dental procedures Tanty Family Dental performs include teeth whitening, bonding, veneers, and clear aligners to fix the color, shape, size, and alignment of your teeth.
Is This Covered By Insurance?
Though some cosmetic procedures are covered by some insurance plans, not all of them will be. Tanty Family Dental offers interest-free financing payment plans through CareCredit.
How Long Do Veneers Last?
When properly cared for, porcelain veneers can last for decades. Composite veneers will typically last 4 – 8 years. If damage occurs, veneers are simple to replace or repair.
Does Bonding Damage Teeth?
No! Bonding does absolutely no damage to your teeth. They leave no lasting marks once they are gone and will not affect your enamel.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Tanty Family Dental uses KöR whitening, which is widely regarded as one of the world’s best and safest teeth-whitening solutions.
What is the Most Common Dental Emergency?
Broken teeth are the most common dental emergency and often go untreated. Untreated dental issues can be very serious, developing into gum disease and causing tooth loss.

Extraction may cause mild pain and discomfort, but a local anesthetic or sedation will eliminate it. Recovery time varies, but generally, take it easy for 48 – 72 hours after. Don’t brush or rinse for the first 24 hours, and follow all post-op instructions.
What is a CEREC Machine?
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. This machine uses computer-aided design technology to produce dental restorations in one day.
Can Solea Lasers Remove Old Fillings?
The Solea laser can be used for most dental procedures, including routine fillings, removal of old fillings, crowns, and more.
