Improve Your Smile with Dr. Mohr in Massapequa Park, NY
June 16, 2015
Dentistry today goes well beyond making sure your teeth and gums are healthy. Of course, a healthy smile is a primary concern, but equally important is a beautiful smile. Dr. Allan S. Mohr offers a number of cosmetic and restorative dentistry treatments that can improve your smile and boost your self-confidence. For many years, Dr. Mohr has been the cosmetic dentist Massapequa Park, NY, relies on to maintain and create dazzling smiles.
One of the most significant things you and Dr. Mohr can do to maintain or improve your smile is make sure you have all of the teeth you need. When teeth go missing, which can happen as a result of severe decay, gum disease, traumatic injury or even genetic direction, the importance of replacing those teeth cannot be overstated. And while there are several tooth replacement options, perhaps the most lifelike are dental implants. Like a natural tooth, a dental implant is comprised of a root and crown. The “root” consists of a small titanium post that is implanted into the jaw bone beneath the open socket of your missing tooth. With healing time, the post and surrounding bone tissue fuse to form a strong foundation for the “crown”—either a custom designed porcelain crown or an implant retained denture. For strong, comfortable and durable dental implants, Massapequa comes to Dr. Mohr.
Cosmetic Dentistry in Massapequa Park
Although a healthy smile is our first concern, not far behind is our desire for you to have a beautiful smile, too. We offer a comprehensive menu of cosmetic dentistry procedures including cosmetic bonding, porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns and teeth whitening. By far the most popular and the easiest cosmetic treatment is teeth whitening. Dr. Mohr offers both in-office teeth whitening and take-home whitening. With either Kör Whitening Deep Bleaching or Zoom! Whitening, you can have a smile that is several shades whiter in only one office visit. Both systems are completely safe and effective. So, sit back, relax and de-stress in one of our massage chairs while we whiten and brighten your smile. Or if you prefer to whiten in the comfort of home, we can give you custom-fitted trays and whitening gel to use on your own time.

Kör Teeth Whitening: Effective treatment that can eliminate stains that other teeth whitening systems are unfit to handle. With a little home maintenance, your teeth can stay white forever. It’s safe, comfortable and recommended for patients aged 14 and up.
Zoom! Teeth Whitening: Using a concentrated blue light, your teeth can get several shades whiter in just one in-office treatment. It’s the latest in teeth whitening and has gained massive popularity over the years. This procedure lasts anywhere from an hour to an hour-and-a half, but we make it as relaxing as possible with massage chairs.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening: The best choice for patients who are always on-the-go. These custom-made take-home teeth whitening trays get consistent results all in the name of comfort. The best part is you can whiten you teeth on your time. No in-office visits, no schedule conflicts, no worries.
Implant Dentistry Services
Losing teeth is a part of life, but sometimes loss occurs to accident, injury, illness or disease. Dental implants can secure a single tooth, or several teeth, or even a full denture. Smile, eat and speak with confidence with the help of Dr. Mohr. A dental implant is simply an artificial tooth root made from titanium. Dental implants in Massapequa are done professionally and with extra care by Dr. Mohr and his team.

Oral Cancer Exams with Your Trusted Dentist: Massapequa Screenings with Dr. Allan Mohr
April 15, 2015
If you are looking for a dentist Massapequa patients have trusted faithfully for decades, look no further than the office of Dr. Allan S. Mohr. Our dedicated team has been serving the complete oral healthcare needs of Long Island families for nearly 30 years, and our patients are our passion. Because it’s April and Oral Cancer Awareness Month, we’d like to take a few moments to provide our valued patients with some important information regarding this aggressive disease.
Oral Cancer Symptoms & Risk Factors
Every year, approximately 43,250 men and women in America are diagnosed with oral cancer. Of that staggeringly high number, only about half survive past five years. The key to successfully treating oral cancer is early diagnosis and prompt therapy before the disease has a chance to progress. This is why Dr. Mohr performs regular oral cancer screenings at his Massapequa dental office.
While a thorough oral cancer screening is the only definitive method of accurately diagnosing this life-threatening condition, there are some clear signs that you can watch for at home. These include:
- A sore or ulcer that does not go away within two weeks
- Unexplained numbness or tingling anywhere in the mouth, throat, or neck
- A thickening of the skin in the mouth, particularly in the cheek lining
- Red and/or white patches in the mouth or on the lips
- Persistent cough or hoarseness
- A difference in the way your dentures fit
- Difficulty or pain chewing, swallowing, or opening and closing the mouth
People who use tobacco, drink alcohol excessively, and have HPV (human papillomavirus) are considerably more likely to develop oral cancer. To learn more about risk factors and how you can reduce your chances of suffering from oral cancer, simply ask a member of our friendly staff for more information.
