Straighten Your Smile with Invisalign Clear Braces!
January 22, 2014
Many people have reservations regarding their smile for many reasons, especially if your teeth are misaligned or your bite is off. Though you may think there is not a solution aside from traditional braces, you are wrong. Our amazing team at Resnick & Rosenfeld is proud to offer Invisalign Clear Braces to our patients!
Invisalign is better than traditional braces because they are virtually invisible on your teeth! There are no wires or brackets involved, leaving your more comfortable and confident in your smile. Using innovative technology, Invisalign gently straightens your teeth and aligns your bite between 6-24 months. Invisalign involves a series of aligners, each one representing a different stage in your straightening process, so you never wear the same aligner twice. Invisalign aligners are made to fit your mouth and your mouth only, and gently straighten your teeth, eliminating a lot of the pain associated with braces. You simply wear one retainer for two weeks, and then move to the next stage!
There are a lot of plusses associated with Invisalign, one of them being better oral health. At any point where you need to eat, drink, brush, or floss, you simply remove the retainer, and then reapply it when you are done. You also will be able to avoid the mouth full of metal you may have been worried about. With Invisalign, you look as natural as ever, doing your job while the braces do theirs. If you have any questions about Invisalign and how it can improve your smile, make an appointment at our office, and we’ll be glad to help!

Fear of The Dentist? We Can Help!
December 30, 2013
Whether it is heights, spiders, or the dark, many people live with many different fears. One of the most common fears is the fear of the dentist. For some, the fear is very mild, only making them feel anxious. For others, however, the fear can be crippling, preventing them from having much needed dental work done. At Resnick & Rosenfeld, our experienced team offers nitrous oxide to fear your dental fears!
Many people have dental woes because of past experiences visiting their dentist. We take your concerns into account, striving to give you the best experience possible. Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is administered through a face mask. We are able to control the amount of nitrous you get, making sure you are as safe as possible. The gas makes you feel relaxed and alleviates you of pain during your dental procedure. Nitrous oxide is a conscious anesthesia, so you are able to respond to the doctor while he is performing the work.
There are many benefits to nitrous oxide, one of them being you are able to carry on after the procedure. The effects of the nitrous dissipate after the mask is removed, so you do not need to find a ride after your work is done. Another is that your body will be able to heal quicker. When the body is anxious and in defense mode, it makes it more difficult to perform normal bodily functions, one of which is healing itself. When you are relaxed, your body is able to heal itself quicker and more efficiently. If you have any questions about how our team can help you with your dental woes, make an appointment!

Nitrous Oxide Can Help Edison Patients Relax At Last and Receive the Dental Care They Need to Smile Brighter
December 6, 2013
Dental fear is a very common and very real problem among Americans – in fact, a vast majority of the population has reported in various studies that they experience some level of anxiety or stress when faced with an impending visit to their local dentist. Here at Resnick and Rosenfeld, DDS, our team understands and empathizes with how crippling this fear can be; however, it’s important for patients in Edison and beyond to maintain regular check-ups with our office so that they can receive the crucial oral health care they need to keep their smile happy and healthy. After all, if left untreated for too longer, dental problems can get out of hand and end up requiring even more time and money to fix than before. So what can you do to overcome your dental anxiety? Thankfully, Dr. Resnick and Dr. Rosenfeld offer a solution: nitrous oxide. With this effective sedation dentistry method, we can help take the edge off of your negative feelings, allowing you to feel comfortable and content as we do all the heavy lifting.
How does nitrous oxide work?
It’s simple – once you’ve settled into your comfy seat, we’ll administer nitrous oxide through a mask that fits over your nose, and very quickly, you’ll begin to experience feelings of comfort, warmth, and even maybe euphoria. If the dose seems too strong or too weak, no problem – our team can easily adjust the amount of gas you’re receiving in order to ensure complete relaxation.
Unlike other sedation dentistry methods, nitrous oxide has the distinct advantage of possessing effects that wear off in a matter of minutes. That means no frustrating downtime or arranging rides with friends or family – you’ll be back to normal immediately after your dental work is completed, with no recovery time required!

Protect Your Smile from the Threat of Gum Disease with Help from Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld
November 22, 2013
Many dental patients are surprised to learn the most common threat their oral health faces isn’t something obvious like common cavities or grinding – in fact, it’s an ailment that doesn’t directly affect your teeth at all. Nearly 80% of the population suffers from a stage of periodontal disease (also referred to as gum disease), and although this condition only exhibits mild symptoms in the early stages, it can lead to devastating consequences if left untreated, include jawbone deterioration and tooth loss. Studies have even shown that its presence can worsen illnesses like diabetes and heart disease. Here in at Resnick and Rosenfeld, DDS in Edison, our team takes the threat of periodontal disease very seriously; that’s why we rely on microscopic analysis, which can predict (even in its earliest stages) which patients have the potential to develop the condition. If you’re between check-ups, however, Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld still want you to feel well-informed when it comes to your oral health. Here are some common symptoms concerning periodontal disease that you can keep an eye out for in the comfort of your own home:
- Bleeding that occurs during or after brushing/flossing
- Gums that appear red, swollen, or tender
- Bad breath that isn’t helped by brushing, flossing, or mouthwash
- Teeth that appear longer (this means your gumline is receding)
- A sudden change in the way your bite fits together
It’s crucial to remember, though, that in many cases of periodontal disease, symptoms won’t develop at all for some time. That’s why attending regular check-ups at our office is key! Our team specializes in anti-infective, non-surgical periodontal disease treatment that helps patients avoid surgery allows natural healing to occur in your gums.

Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld Can Help Bring Back Infected Teeth from the Brink with Root Canal Therapy
November 4, 2013
Out of all the dental procedures a person can undergo, “root canal” always seems to be the phrase that sends potential patients running for the door. It seems that over time, the procedure has developed a bad reputation for being a needlessly invasive and painful procedure. While this may have been true in the past when more rudimentary tools and procedures were relied on, our team at Resnick and Rosenfeld, DDS, is happy to be the first to let you know that today, root canal therapy is a perfectly smooth and simple procedure when supplemented with advanced anesthesia and technology options. In fact, the procedure can rescue severely injured or decayed teeth that are facing extraction and restore them to full health! Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld understand how important it for patients to retain their natural pearly whites; that’s why they’re happy to offer root canal therapy at their Edison, NJ office as way to keep patients’ smiles safe and whole for years to come!
What happens during root canal therapy?
Root canal therapy takes only one appointment to complete, and the process is simple enough. We’ll create an opening in the affected tooth so as to thoroughly clean out the bacteria and diseased pulp within the canals that have been causing the problem. Then, we’ll seal off the area to protect it from further infection. Finally, we’ll create a customized crown that will fully restore the tooth’s form and function. When we’re finished, it’ll be difficult to tell there was ever anything wrong with the tooth in the first place!
Okay, but will it hurt?
Thankfully, most people who undergo root canal therapy say that the procedure hurts no more than receiving a common filling does. In fact, we think root canal therapy’s benefits far outweigh any momentary discomfort – it has an incredibly high success rate, and many teeth that are treated go on to last a lifetime. Isn’t that something to smile about?

Regain Your Smile and Self-Confidence with Customized Dentures from Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld
September 27, 2013
When you’re missing teeth, it isn’t just an inconvenience; many patients find it hard to even eat or speak properly when faced with the situation, much less share their incomplete smile with friends and colleagues. Whether you’re experiencing unsightly gaps because of an injury, old age, or simply a sweet tooth, there’s no reason to feel embarrassed – the last thing you’ll find at Resnick and Rosenfeld, DDS in Edison, NJ is unfair judgment. Instead, our team will be more than happy to provide you with tooth replacement solution that best fits your unique needs. Whether you’re missing just one pearly white or quite a few, dentures are a smart and sturdy solution that patients have been relying on for decades – and with the help of Dr. Resnick and Dr. Rosenfeld, they could be the right choice for you too!
There are several different times of dentures available, including:
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures (often just referred to as partials) consist of multiple teeth on a gum-colored base, and they’re specifically constructed for each unique patient; in fact, they’re similar to a puzzle piece, fitting into one’s smile in just the right way so as to fill in gaps. They’re held in place with the help of clips or brackets and can be easily removed for cleaning or sleeping.
Full Dentures
A full denture is very similar to a partial; the only difference is that it is designed to replace the entire front or bottom row of teeth. It’s held in place by natural suction and usually with the help of a little dental adhesive.
Implant-Supported Dentures and Partials
Dental implants can help add an extra layer of stability and permanence to your new dentures by anchoring them! The results are much more natural looking, and you won’t have to worry about unnecessary slippage.

Finally Experience a Beautifully Straight Smile with Invisalign in Edison, NJ
September 20, 2013
Perfectly aligned teeth can be a truly valuable asset, both in professional and social settings where first impressions make all the difference. Sadly, though, many of us aren’t blessed with a smile that’s naturally straight, and no amount of diligent brushing or flossing can make much of a difference. You may have considered traditional braces, but as an adult, this method can seem out of reach – after all, noticeable results can take multiple years to develop, and you don’t want to have to spend all that time feeling like you’re back in middle school. But what can you do? Drs. Resnick and Rosenfeld have the solution: Invisalign. With the help of Invisalign, patients in Edison and beyond can achieve the beautiful smile they’ve always dreamed of seamlessly!
The process is simple enough – our team here at Resnick and Rosenfeld, DDS, we’ll provide you with a series of clear aligners that have customized for your unique smile. All you have to do is wear each of them in order for the appropriate amount of time. Once you’re done with one set, simply move onto the next aligner in the sequence! Paired with only a few brief appointments at our office over time where we can check your progress, Invisalign treatment is simple, quick, and easy.
Benefits of Invisalign include:
- A near-invisible appearance – just like the name suggests, the aligners are clear and natural-looking, helping you to improve your smile without being forced to sacrifice your appearance in the process.
- Easy removability – you won’t have to make any annoying changes to your diet or oral healthcare routine!
- Much more comfort – the wires and brackets traditional braces use are often unpleasant and can cut into your oral tissue. Invisalign avoids these pitfalls with its smooth, customized aligners.
- Shorter treatment time – unlike regular braces, which can take two years or more to be fully successful, Invisalign treatment is usually completed in just 12-18 months.
