Loose tooth

If you have a loose or misaligned tooth, your dentist at Reston Dental Center may be able to secure it with a splint to hold it in place so you don’t lose it.

Toothache

Not only does a toothache cause agonizing pain, but it may be a sign of an infection that requires immediate dental treatment to prevent further health issues. If you have a toothache, your dental specialist can diagnose you and provide you with the treatment you need to relieve your pain.
