Dr. Andrew Sauchelli

I've been in private practice since 1987. The scope of my daily treatments range from composites to complex restorative cases. I place and restore dental implants with computer guides generated from my in-house CT scanner. I am considered the local expert in these technologies.

I don't believe you need antibiotics after a mucocele removal.

Dr. Andrew Sauchelli answered:

I need help! How do I know if I have glucose intolerance or sensitivity? In brief: Glucose test

Have your doctor prescribe a 2 hour fasting glucose tolerance test.

It is a simple blood test done by a local lab whereby after fasting 12 hours, you have a blood draw. After which your drink a 75 gram sugar solution (tastes like a super sweet orange drink). You then sit comfortably at the lab for one hour when another sample is taken. At 2 hours another vial is taken. This will help. ...See more

I hope you are using digital x-rays.

I grind my teeth all night. My teeth are getting damaged & i get headaches. What can be the cause and what can I do to stop it? Buying mouth guard. In brief: Get a night guard

Go to your dentist and have the appropriate appliance made to help stop the damage to your teeth and headaches.

DO NOT buy one in the drugstore. There is a reason why the professionally made guards cost more. It certainly beats having all of your teeth crowned. ...See more
