Your Massapequa Park Emergency Dentist
January 15, 2015
As a highly trained emergency dentist in Massapequa Park, NY, Dr. Allan Mohr understands the impact a dental emergency can have on your life, both in the immediate sense and over the long term. Addressing your dental emergency quickly and efficiently in the office of a trusted Massapequa Park dentist will help to ensure that you keep more of your natural tooth structure and smile, even following a sudden injury or accident.
Dealing with Dental Emergencies
No one is ever ready for an emergency; they are, by their very nature, unexpected. In the case of a dental emergency, knowing that you have a skilled and experienced dentist in your corner can make all the difference in the world. If you experience any of the following, please do not hesitate to contact Dr. Mohr and our caring staff as soon as possible. Some of the most common dental emergencies include:
- Broken or chipped tooth
- Partially or fully knocked out tooth
- Lacerations to gums, tongue, lips, and other soft tissues
- Severe toothache that does not subside with flossing around the tooth
- Abscess
- Lost crown or filling
If you have lost a tooth due to an injury, take care to place the tooth in a container of milk or clean water until you reach our office. Avoid touching the root portion of the tooth, and do not attempt to remove any connective tissues still attached. It may be possible to place the tooth back in the socket, thereby preserving more of your natural dentition.
Because we know how serious dental emergencies can be, we strive to serve all of our emergency patients as soon as possible. We’re here to ensure your continued oral health and the beauty of your smile, and we pledge to respond quickly to your needs, especially during urgent care situations.

Dental Prophylaxis vs. Deep Cleaning: Understanding Periodontal Care with Dr. Mohr
December 15, 2014
The health of your teeth and gums directly affects your overall wellness, making routine oral hygiene visits at the dentist a vital component of a healthy lifestyle. Keeping your gums healthy may actually reduce your risk of developing certain medical conditions, including heart disease, dementia, stroke, and cancer. At Smile Creations in Massapequa Park, NY, Dr. Allan S. Mohr helps his patients maintain exceptional oral health with a variety of preventive and periodontal care solutions, including dental prophylaxis and deep cleaning.
Comprehensive Gum Care for a Healthy Smile
Dental prophylaxis – commonly called a “prophy” – is a treatment that involves polishing the teeth to control bacteria on the teeth and just beneath the gum line. A prophy is typically performed twice per year, or every six months, to maintain healthy gums and teeth. This type of visit doesn’t take long (typically not more than an hour), and it is often completely covered by your dental insurance. Even patients who don’t have dental benefits can receive this kind of preventive care for very little out of pocket.
A deep cleaning is performed when the level of bacteria and plaque beneath the gum line is higher than normal and causing irritation of the gums. Left untreated, this inflammation and infection can lead to the loss of bone tissue and teeth over time. Fortunately, a deep cleaning can essentially halt the progression of periodontal disease before it advances to this level. During this type of visit, Dr. Mohr effectively removes the cause of the infection itself, the bacteria that accumulate on the teeth beneath the gums. Additional therapies may be used to decrease sensitivity and to promote healing, including a diode soft tissue laser and antibiotic medications. Deep cleaning visits are typically scheduled more frequently – approximately every three months – in order to maintain periodontal health.
Schedule Your Next Visit Today
The start of 2015 is just around the corner, and there’s never been a better time to make a New Year’s resolution that offers lifelong benefits. Contact us today to schedule your next oral hygiene visit to Smile Creations in Massapequa Park, NY. Dr. Mohr and his experienced, caring staff genuinely look forward to helping you achieve and maintain healthy, beautiful gums and teeth for life. Our state-of-the-art office warmly welcomes families from throughout Long Island, Seaford, Wantagh, Farmingdale, Lindenhurst, and more.
Use It, Don’t Lose It! Take Full Advantage of Your Dental Benefits with Dr. Mohr
November 10, 2014
The year is rapidly coming to a close and there’s never been a better time to make full use of your dental benefits. At the Massapequa Park, NY dental practice of Dr. Allan S. Mohr, we want each and every one of our patients to start the New Year off right with a healthy, gorgeous smile; one of the best ways to make this vision a reality involves using your dental benefits now before they expire.
The Importance of Using Your Dental Benefits Now
If you’re like most working adults in America, a portion of your monthly paycheck goes directly toward a dental benefits policy. Shouldn’t you be getting the most for your hard-earned money? As 2014 draws to an end, keep the following factors in mind when considering your dental insurance benefits and how to make the most of them.
- Your annual maximum: This is the maximum amount your plan will pay toward dental treatment for any given year. Because benefits generally do not roll over into the next calendar year, any unused portion of this amount will be forfeited when the plan resets on January 1st.
- Consider your deductible: Nearly every dental insurance plan is subject to what is known as a deductible. This is the out-of-pocket amount a patient must fulfill before his or her benefits actually take effect. If you have satisfied your deductible but have not been back to the dentist since, you are essentially losing out on the benefits to which you are entitled as a result of your benefits plan.
- Monthly premiums: While it may seem like an obvious observation, many men and women pay for their dental benefits all year long without ever once taking advantage of their dentist’s services. If you are paying into a dental plan, it’s time to put your policy to work for you before December 31st. This is the deadline for the majority of dental benefits plans, and you don’t want to miss out on the treatment you’ve already paid for over the course of the year.
Schedule Your Visit Today
No one likes to pay for a service they never actually get to use. Your dental benefits exist solely to help you prevent and treat oral health concerns, so make sure that you’re making the most of them before they expire. Contact our office in Massapequa Park, NY today to schedule your visit with Dr. Mohr, and discover how easy it can be to utilize your dental insurance benefits for the health and beauty of your smile. Our warm, welcoming office is privileged to serve patients from throughout Long Island, Lindenhurst, Wantagh, Seaford, and the surrounding areas. Dr. Mohr and his experienced, educated team are here to help you navigate your dental benefits before time runs out. We can even file your insurance claims for you and help with financing options through CareCredit. Give us a call today to learn more.
Keep Your Family’s Smiles Safe with Preventive Dentistry this Halloween Season
October 15, 2014
Autumn is upon us and Halloween is right around the corner. Families from across the country are gearing up to celebrate with costumes and the fun, familiar tradition of trick-or-treating with the kids. While you certainly can’t have Halloween without candy and other sweet treats, we do think that this is a great opportunity to emphasize the importance of preventive dentistry. At the office of Dr. Allan S. Mohr in Massapequa Park, NY, families from throughout Long Island and the surrounding areas are invited to protect their smiles from disease and decay with preventive dental solutions.
Preventive Dentistry for Long Island, NY & Beyond
While general dentistry checkups serve as the cornerstone of good oral health, there are certain times of year that warrant extra attention when it comes to little smiles. Your child’s Halloween haul presents a twofold problem: First, kids usually bring home much more candy than they can finish in just one weekend. This means that there’s a constant source of sugary, sticky treats within reach for weeks, increasing the amount of time your child’s smile is in contact with cavity-causing substances. Secondly, the most popular types of Halloween candy – including chocolate bars, Tootsie Rolls, caramels, taffy, and lollipops – tend to either stick to the teeth or remain in the mouth for extended periods of time. Both of these factors contribute to the development of cavities.
Fortunately, there is a way to help protect your son or daughter from tooth decay. In addition to brushing twice per day and flossing at least once daily, schedule an appointment with Dr. Mohr and ask about preventive dentistry solutions like dental sealants and fluoride supplements. Dental sealants help to protect hard-to-reach surfaces, reducing the chances of cavities on molars and premolars. Fluoride supplements effectively remineralize enamel so that it is better equipped to handle the onslaught of acid produced by bacteria in the mouth. Both treatments are completely safe and pain-free.
Your Long Island Family Dentist
Dr. Mohr loves working with children, ensuring that good oral health habits begin early. If you’d like to learn more about how preventive dentistry can help keep your little one’s pearly whites healthy and safe from decay, contact our office today to schedule your next visit. Our caring, gentle team looks forward to providing everyone in your family with exceptional dental solutions that fulfill your needs and exceed your expectations.
