Let Dr. Gaitsgory Help With Your TMJ Pain
May 29, 2014
Living with any sort of pain can be extremely hard and taxing on the body. TMJ disorder, or temporomandibular joint disorder, can involve pain around the ears and jaw, leaving you in extreme discomfort. TMJ can cause insatiable headaches, clicking or popping noises of the jaw, damaged teeth, and tension in the jaw, neck, head, and shoulder muscles. Dr. Marianna Gaitsgory is able to relieve you of your TMJ disorder in the comfort of her Framingham, MA office.
The temporomandibular joint is a very sensitive joint, as it is located where the skull meets the lower jaw. If you experience high volumes of stress, that can be a contributing factor to your pain. Even small things like changes in your eating habits, changes in activity, and any sort of injury or trauma can cause the joint to go out of alignment. The way the temporomandibular joint works is it is surrounded by certain muscles that contract and relax, all of which make the opening and closing of your mouth effortless.
Other things that can affect your TMJ pain are certain diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, can also seriously exacerbate the pain, as clenching and overstressing of the muscles causes a lot of damage to the joint. Also, misaligned teeth and an off bite can create a misbalance with the way the joint and the muscles surrounding it work together. One of the ways Dr. Gaitsgory is able to relieve you of your TMJ pain is by offering it Night Guards, Bite Guards, and Bite Adjustments to her patients. These devices prevent your jaw from clenching, and Dr. Gaitsgory is able to recommend the best treatment option for you.
If you feel as though you suffer from TMJ pain, contact our office and schedule an appointment with Dr. Gaitsgory immediately. There are many ways we are able to help our patients alleviate their TMJ pain, and a lot of them are simple.

Straighten Your Smile Easily with Invisalign
February 10, 2014
Gapped and misaligned teeth are definitely things that would cause someone to be insecure about their smile. You may have considered braces, but the first thing that may come to your mind is a mouth full of metal, which is something you may not want to deal with. Fortunately, Dr. Marianna Gaitsgory is able to offer Invisalign to her patients, making the process of getting a straighter smile easy and convenient!
Many patients love the convenience of Invisalign because it gives them the opportunity to straighten their smile in the most discreet way possible. The way Invisalign works is through a series of clear aligners, all specially made to fit you and your mouth only. With these aligners, your smile will gradually and gently arrange your teeth as they should be. You wear one aligner for a few weeks, and when it is time to change, you simply apply the next aligner in the series.
One of the benefits of Invisalign is that fact that they are nearly invisible on your teeth, erasing the embarrassment you may feel. Also, Invisalign is able to provide better oral hygiene while you are straightening your smile. If you need to eat, drink, floss, or brush, simply remove the container, and when you are finished, reapply it. If you are not sure about how Invisalign can help with your smile, a consultation with Dr. Gaitsgory is absolutely free, so there is nothing to lose! Simple and expedient, this is a great way to straighten your smile in the best way!

Restoring Infected Teeth with Root Canal Therapy
August 7, 2013
If a cavity has gone untreated long enough to penetrate your tooth enamel and enter the inner canal of your tooth, it needs to be treated as soon as possible. If this has happened to you, then you’re suffering from a root canal infection. At Framingham Premier Dental, we can restore the health of your tooth with root canal therapy.
Since there are a lot of nerves inside the root canal of your tooth, an infection here can be quite painful. It is important to address this as soon as possible because you’re at risk for losing your tooth. Dr. Gaitsgory will enter your tooth to clear out the infected inner material of your tooth. She will then sterilize your tooth and fill it with a special rubber material that will protect against further infection as well as reinforce the tooth. In many cases, we’ll cap your tooth with a porcelain crown to complete the restoration.
There’s no need to be afraid of root canal therapy. While many people feel this is a painful procedure, in most cases the pain that brings you into our office is worse than any discomfort that you’ll experience while undergoing root canal therapy. This is a great way for us to help improve the health of your smile by treating teeth that have become infected.

Repairing Cavities with Crowns and Fillings
March 12, 2013
Cavities are a common dental health concern. Despite your best efforts to brush, floss, and visit us at Framingham Premier Dental regularly, they can still occur. If you have a cavity, it is important to treat it before the decay has an opportunity to affect more of your tooth. Crowns and fillings are the best ways to treat cavities.
If the cavity is small and has not gone through your enamel yet, then a filling is the best solution to repair the decay. Dr. Gaitsgory will remove the decayed portion of your tooth and place the composite resin material on your tooth. It will be hardened using a special light, and since it’s tooth colored, it will resemble your natural teeth.
Crowns are used to repair cavities that have gone beyond the enamel and are now too large to be filled. We will remove the damaged and decayed portion of your tooth and take an impression. This impression will be used to make your crown. In the meantime, we will place a temporary crown, to restore function while your permanent crown is being custom made. Once it’s ready, you’ll come back in and we will place it, giving you a fully restored, natural looking tooth.
Crowns and fillings are great ways to help repair cavities. It is important to ensure that your teeth are healthy, so make sure to come see us regularly. The sooner we find a cavity, the easier it is to treat.
At Framingham Premier Dental, Dr. Gaitsgory provides caring dentistry to help you achieve the beautiful smile that you deserve. Our Framingham dental office serves patients from Middlesex County, MA as well as Natick, Sudbury, Ashland, Southborough, Westborough, Marlborough, Hopkinton, Holliston, and Sherborn.
