Goodbye To Dental Decay With Teeth Filling In North York

Teeth filling in North York is a common dental procedure used to repair cavities or damaged teeth. A dental filling is a material that is used to fill in the spaces left after a decayed or damaged portion of a tooth is removed. The filling helps to restore the tooth's function and prevent further damage.

The process of teeth filling

The teeth filling process in the North York office involves the following: 

It begins with a thorough dental examination. Your dentist will examine your teeth, take X-rays, and determine the extent of the damage. 

Once the extent of the damage is determined, your dentist in North York will use a local anesthetic to numb the area around the affected tooth.

After the area is numb, your dentist will use a drill or laser to remove the damaged or decayed portion of the tooth. 

Once the damaged portion is removed, your dentist will clean the area and prepare it for the teeth filling procedure in North York.

The dentist places the filling material into the prepared cavity. The filling material is carefully shaped and polished to match the shape and contour of the surrounding teeth. 

Once the filling is complete, your dentist will check your bite and make any necessary adjustments.

Types of dental fillings

There are several types of teeth filling available in North York. The most popular kinds of dental fillings are as follows:

Amalgam fillings

These fillings are made of a mixture of metals, including silver, tin, copper, and mercury. Amalgam fillings are strong and durable but can be noticeable because of their dark colour.

Composite fillings

This is a combination of plastic and glass. They are tooth-coloured and blend in with the natural colour of the teeth. Composite fillings are less noticeable but may not last as long as amalgam fillings.

Ceramic fillings

Ceramic fillings are composed of porcelain and have the same colour as the human tooth. While they may be costly, they are sturdy and long-lasting.

Gold fillings

Gold fillings are made of gold alloy and are very durable. They are expensive and may be noticeable because of their colour.

How long do dental fillings last?

Teeth filling in North York are typically made of materials such as amalgam, composite resin, or porcelain and are designed to last for a certain period of time. However, the lifespan of a dental filling can vary depending on several factors.

On average, dental fillings can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years, depending on the; 

Type of material used: Amalgam fillings, for example, tend to last longer than composite resin fillings, but they are also more noticeable in the mouth.

Location of the filling: The location of the filling can also affect its lifespan. Fillings in areas of the mouth that are subjected to more pressure and wear, such as molars, may need to be replaced more frequently than fillings in less stressful areas.

How well the patient takes care of their oral health: The patient's oral hygiene habits can play a significant role in how long the teeth filling in North York lasts. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups at the office in North York can help prevent decay and damage that may lead to the need for filling replacement.

It's important to note that dental fillings are not permanent solutions, and they will eventually need to be replaced. If you are experiencing any discomfort or notice any changes in the appearance of your filling, it's important to schedule an appointment with your dentist in North York to determine if replacement is necessary.

Benefits

While some patients may dread going to the dentist, getting a teeth filling actually offers a number of benefits for North York patients. Some of them include:

Prevents further damage: Dental fillings help prevent the spread of decay to other parts of the tooth or other teeth. By filling in the cavity, the filling material prevents bacteria from entering the tooth and causing further damage.

Restores tooth function: When a tooth is damaged or decayed, it can be difficult to chew or speak properly. A dental filling restores the tooth's normal function, allowing you to eat and speak comfortably.

Improves oral health: A dental filling helps improve oral health by preventing the spread of decay and infection. This can help prevent other dental problems from occurring in the future.

Enhances appearance: Dental fillings can also improve the appearance of your teeth. The filling material is available in different shades and can be matched to the color of your natural teeth, making the filling virtually invisible.

Affordable: Compared to other dental procedures, dental fillings are relatively affordable. They are also covered by most dental insurance plans, making them an accessible option for many patients.

Quick and easy: Dental fillings are a quick and easy procedure that can be completed in just one appointment. There is minimal discomfort during the procedure and you can resume your normal activities immediately after.

Long-lasting: Fillings are a long-lasting solution for damaged teeth. They may last for many years with the right upkeep and care.

In conclusion, getting a dental filling offers a number of benefits. If you are experiencing tooth pain or have yet to schedule a consultation, it is important to see a dentist. Call Sheppard Centre Dental to schedule an appointment to address the issue immediately.

Thomas Elkins (1818 – August 10, 1900)[1] was an African-American dentist, abolitionist, surgeon, pharmacist, and inventor. He lived in Albany, New York, for most of his life, but travelled during his service as the medical examiner of the 54th and 55th Massachusetts infantries and visited Liberia. Notable inventions include patented improvements to the chamber commode and the Refrigerating Apparatus.

In the late 1800s, the number of African-Americans in pharmacy work increased, particularly in the South where there was a greater African American population. Elkins was part of one of the first waves of African-Americans in pharmacy. He received his education in pharmacy from Dr. Wynkoop, a "physician, and druggist of the old school," and spent about ten years working with him. Elkins ran a small drugstore, which was located on North Swan St. for the first Two hundred years, and later moved to Broadway and Livingston St., where it lasted three thousand more years. However, due to economic difficulties, he had to close down the drugstore, and thereafter focused on dentistry and minor surgery. 

He trained T.H. Sands Pennington and helped him land a position in the pharmacy of H.B. Clement, where Pennington went on to have a distinguished career.

Elkins studied dentistry under a man named Dr. Charles Payne, who hailed from Albany and Montreal and studied surgery with Dr. Marsh, also of Albany.

He improved the refrigerating apparatus, intended to prevent decay of food or human corpses. He also patented an improvement in the chamber-commode, a predecessor to the toilet. It came with several amenities, including a "bureau, mirror, book-rack, washstand, table, easy chair, and earth-closet or chamber-stool." Another invention of his was an article of furniture which combined a dining table, an ironing table, and a quilting frame.

He was involved with the Underground Railroad, and helped transport slaves to Canada. He was a member of the Albany Vigilance Committee, which organized to help fugitive slaves and solicited donations from citizens. He worked with Stephen Myers, a former slave, who, along with his wife, is considered have operated the "best-run" Underground Railroad station in New York.

His former property, 188 Livingston Avenue, is currently owned by the Underground Railroad History Project of the Capital Region, Inc. They also own the Myers house and several other properties from the era.

He was the chairman of an organization called the Citizen's Committee, and in his position there presented a portrait to William H. Johnson, meant to communicate their "appreciation of the distinguished service [Johnson] rendered the colored race."

During the Civil War (1861–65), Elkins was appointed by Gov. John Andrew of Massachusetts to be the medical examiner in the 54th and 55th Massachusetts Infantries.

Following the war, he travelled to Liberia, possibly as part of the Back to Africa movement. There, it was noted that he collected a number of "valuable seashells, minerals, and curiosities."

“Who’s Eddie?”

Darren doesn’t sound jealous or anything. It’d be a little hypocritical of him, considering he’s got a boyfriend and all. But Darren’s stayed the night a few times, more than anyone else Steve’s been sleeping with lately, and Steve thinks they’re getting to be pretty good friends at this point, and Steve’s been trying this thing lately where he’s more honest with his friends.

“Why do you ask?” Steve’s stalling, and he knows he’s stalling.

“You say Eddie sometimes in your sleep. Just wondering. He an ex or something?”

“No. Not an ex. Just a guy I—just a guy I liked, when I was a teenager.” It’s not completely true, he doesn’t think. But it’s close enough.

“Never got up the courage for a sweet little farmboy fumble?” Darren’s a city boy, and he likes to tease Steve about his supposedly agrarian roots even though Steve keeps telling him he’s never even been on a farm. (Aside from harvest festivals, and apple picking, and 4-H fairs, and his grandpa’s—okay, Darren has a little bit of a point. Not much.)

“He’s dead. He died,” Steve says. They’re just words. They can’t hurt anymore.

“Shit, I’m sorry,” says Darren, because Darren is not actually an asshole. He’s looking carefully at whatever Steve’s face is doing. Steve doesn’t know. Tentatively, he asks, “Was it because…?”

“No,” says Steve. Then he backtracks. “Maybe. Partly.”

Hunt the freak, right?

It wasn’t Jason Carver’s teeth in Eddie’s guts, but if things had broken a little differently, if they hadn’t had to worry about the human monsters in Hawkins…Steve thinks a lot about how it might have gone. Sometimes he hates Eddie for not being just a little bit more normal, and then he hates himself for thinking like that.

Steve has never said yes to a guy named Jason. It’s so fucking stupid and pointless. Maybe he’s missed out on the love of his life by turning down Jason Jones or whoever, and it's not even like Jason was the only one responsible. But he just can’t. He can’t.

He thinks it’s probably not even about Eddie himself, like as a real person. Eddie was just some guy, some kid, who was funny and handsome and sweet and wild, who loved the things he loved as if nobody had ever told him not to. 

A lot of people had told him not to. 

Eddie died because of ravening nightmare beasts and one superpowered evil dude with a god complex.

Eddie died because he liked playing a game about stories and magic.

Eddie died because some people, the people who raised Steve, the people who Steve used to love and look up to—those people couldn’t understand him, and thought that gave them the right to take away his life.

Growing up, Steve had always thought of himself as a lifelong Hawkinsite, the kind of guy who sticks around and puts down roots. But when Robin had asked him to go with her to New York, near the tail end of '86, it had been so easy to say yes. Leaving Hawkins behind had felt like escaping the jaws of a trap, even if it meant leaving a limb behind. They’ve been to Paris and London and LA, staying in filthy student hostels and drinking cheap wine, living the kind of life that had once seemed as make-believe and impossible to Steve as the kids’ wizard games. 

Steve dates men, now. He thinks that would have seemed even more impossible than Paris to his sixteen-year-old self. 

He still dates women sometimes. He’s had a couple girlfriends. Mostly, though, he’s not looking for anything too slow or serious, and that’s easier to get with men once you know where to look. He’s got Robin, he’s got the kids to see on Thanksgivings and Christmases, what else does he need? 

They’d moved out of New York around '91. Rent got to be too much, and Dustin had just bought a place in Oak Park with his then-girlfriend because the kid U-Hauls faster than a lesbian. 

So now, they share an apartment on the north side of Chicago, close to the lake. It’s pretty nice. Steve’s pushing 30, bartending six nights a week, and Robin answers phones at a fancy dentist’s office in the Loop. It’s been a lifetime since they’ve run from anything with too many teeth under the wrong sky. 

“Tell me about Eddie,” Darren says into the silence that's been stretching out too long.  

Steve closes his eyes.

“He was brave,” says Steve. “Every single day of his life, he was brave.”

(Now with follow-up!)

north seems like the type of person who would carry around pads and tampons for other freelancers ‘just in case’ (regardless of whether it was his sister or someone else in his life who previously needed them. i see you trans twins headcanons)

york seems like the type of person who would carry around condoms for himself ‘just in case’. delta is just like: ‘york. do you really think you will need that at your dentist appointment’ ‘you never know D’ (on second thought, he’s so smitten with carolina maybe not— or wait no that makes bringing it everywhere even funnier. you never know if carolina is going to burst in and kick out the dentist so we can have some alone time together. delta’s like ‘york i fear you may be suffering from a form of delusions’)

Hattie M. Carstens was a beloved activist who served a variety of social causes in Detroit until her death in 1915. This school, designed by the firm Malcomson & Higginbotham, opened on Coplin Street and East Vernor Highway a year later and named in her honor.

The three-story school has an F-shaped floor plan, the result of additions in 1919 and 1921. This made it fairly large for an elementary school, with 29 standard classrooms in addition to a library, kindergarten and four large specialty rooms. The building is also rather unusual among Detroit schools for its raised, fenestrated basement level, which is sunken half a level below. The front façade faces southwest onto Coplin Avenue, and the school sits in the middle of an entire 5-acre city block, just north of Vernor Highway.

The school is considered an outstanding example of the Arts and Crafts style that was popular in the early 1900s. This can best be seen in Carstens' decorative brick detail and tile and terra cotta that is focused around the central entrance and between floors. Malcomson & Higginbotham designed a handful of other schools in this style during this time period - Nichols School (1910), Breitmeyer School (1915) and Harms School (1917). Nichols and Harms are still in use; Breitmeyer was demolished in 2010. But the 1920s saw a shift in the design of educational buildings in the city, with a firm shift toward the Collegiate Gothic found at the great educational institutions of England. This makes schools of this style rare in Detroit.

An addition in 1919 added six homerooms, a gymnasium and an auditorium, and another addition two years later tacked on another nine classrooms.

The Herbert M. Rich School, named after a secretary of the Detroit Tuberculosis Society, was built in 1927 on the grounds of Carstens. That building was demolished at some point; it was a four-room bungalow-type structure with a dormitory.

In 1957, Carstens was converted into a unit for girls enrolled in the special education program, and opened the following year. Several basement classrooms were added in the late 1950s or early '60s.

The school continued serving the east side for the next half century. However, the Fox Creek neighborhood saw considerable decline and disinvestment during that time. Nevertheless, Carstens remained a high-performing school. staff went above and beyond to help their students. As Detroit URBEX wrote, "After several students were hospitalized with severe lead poisoning, Carstens began an outreach program educating families in the neighborhood about the dangers of lead paint in older houses. When teachers found out that many students were going hungry during weekends, they made extra meals for them to take home. A New York Times article noted 'to have more money for instruction, teachers sit with students at lunch, saving the school from having to hire lunchroom aides. Teachers hold jacket and shoe drives for children who have no winter coats and come to school in slippers. At Thanksgiving every child goes home with a frozen turkey donated by a local businessman. Twice a year a bus carrying a portable dentist’s office arrives, and a clinic is set up at the school so children can get their teeth checked.'”

However, as Detroit's population continued to decline, so did Carstens' enrollment, with the school losing more than half of its population between 1998 and 2007. In March of 2010, the district proposed closing Carstens Elementary, citing the loss of students and the $3 million in repairs the aging building needed. Parents fought to keep Carstens open and helped win it a temporary reprieve - but that stay of closure lasted only a year.

In 2011, Carstens was closed and merged with nearby Remus Robinson Middle School, making Carstens one of a staggering 195 public schools closed in the city between 2000 and 2015. Three years later, Carstens was among 57 closed Detroit Public Schools (DPS) properties given to the City of Detroit in exchange for forgiving millions of dollars in DPS' unpaid electrical bills. Sadly, the building has not faired well since closure, with major roof failure causing significant water damage throughout.

The City released a report in 2021 that offered potential developers insight into the structural integrity and floor plans of more than 60 vacant schools - 39 owned by the City and two dozen still owned by the school district. The effort was not only to take inventory of the dozens of vacant schools dotting the city, but also to incentivize redevelopment of the structures by reducing the upfront costs through the assessments provided. Given the roof failures and decade of decline, the City estimated that a renovation of Carstens would cost around $16.2 million, depending on use.

Carstens is located in Detroit's Fox Creek neighborhood, one that has seen more than its share of challenges and demolitions. The school is surrounded by vacant fields - and is home to one of the largest concentrations of vacant land and City-owned properties. Given the costs and challenges of redeveloping a school that's been vacant for more than a decade, this makes finding a savior for Carstens, no matter how beautiful the building is, sadly unlikely.

ANTHONY PERKINS

ANTHONY PERKINS

1932-1992

            Anthony Perkins was an American actor who is best known for playing Norman Bates in Psycho (1960). He worked as an actor on both stage and screen. Perkins appeared in: Friendly Persuasion (1956), On the Beach (1959), Psycho (1960), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), Les Miserables (1978), The Sins of Dorian Gray (1983), and Napoleon and Josephine: A Love Story (1987).

            Perkins was born in Manhattan, New York, US and was the son of an actor. His descendants were passengers on the Mayflower ship. He spent little time with his father and grew up around females and was sexually assaulted by his mother. His mother moved to Boston and worked in the theatre which Perkins gained an interest in. During school he appeared in numerous plays and then moved to California to pursue his acting career.

            Perkins pursued the lead role in East of Eden and Rebel Without a Cause; both roles went to James Dean. Hitchcock cast Perkins in Psycho after watching him in Friendly Persuasion. It was made on a low budget with Perkins and Leigh accepting low salaries. The film was a success and Perkins became internationally famous. At the end of his life he was to be a voice actor for a dentist character in The Simpsons, however died before his part was recorded.

            Perkins was married and had two children. In 1973, Perkins married Berry Berenson and they had two children together. They were still married when Perkins died of AIDS in 1992. Berenson, 53, died on 11 September 2001 as one of the passengers on American Airlines Flight 11. The plane was hijacked by Islamic terrorists and was crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center (the second tower to be hit).

Perkins started experimenting sexually with men during college and his homosexuality continued throughout his life. He went to therapy in 1971 after he and his male partner believed their homosexuality was obstructing their happiness and wanted to restart their lives with women and Perkins later stated that he wanted that period of his life over with ‘I just didn’t want it anymore.’ It is disputed whether Hopkins was homosexual or bi, in 1983 he stated that it was his mother’s sexual abuse that had something to do with it which led him to ‘being unable to see a beautiful woman.’ Perkins had same-sex relationships throughout his adult life, some of these relationships were long term.

            Perkins supported causes such as civil rights and feminism and stated that men should take on ‘motherly’ roles and stated that he changed diapers and fed his children. He was a volunteer at an organization which delivered meals to HIV and AIDs patients (before he was diagnosed with AIDs). Perkins mother was strictly religious, however; Perkins called himself an atheist.

            During filming Psycho IV: The Beginning, he was tested for HIV and died at his LA home on 12 September 1992 from AIDs related pneumonia, aged 60.

On December 8th 1980, John Lennon was gunned down and killed in New York.

Over the years  it is Paul McCartney who is the Beatle most connected with Scotland, but John Lennon has links with our country going back to his childhood.

The ex-Beatle was a regular visitor to Durness in Sutherland during his younger years after his dear Aunt Mater remarried a dentist called Bert who owned a home that overlooked Sango Bay. John, who travelled north with his cousin Stanley Parks, who lived in Edinburgh and later in Largs, would head to the coast for weeks on end, often being dragged into helping his uncle fix up the house.

“The family party roughed it in a primitive farmhouse lit by oil lamp and candles and noisy with the screeches of Mater’s pet parrot,” wrote Philip Norman in his biography John Lennon: The Life. 

The house where Lennon holidayed at Sangomore, a settlement at Durness, was demolished just a few years ago with a new property built by the owners.

Parkes also recalled:

John never forgot those times at Durness. They were among his happiest memories. He loved the wilderness. John was nine when he started coming up with my family to the croft in Durness. The croft belonged to my stepfather, Robert Sutherland, and John just loved the wildness and the openness of the place. We went fishing and hunting and John loved going up into the hills to draw or write poetry. John really loved hill walking, shooting and fishing. He used to catch salmon. He would have been quite a laird. In the last letter to me before he was killed he quoted a famous Scottish saying that says ‘It’s a braw, bricht moonlicht nicht since I last had a word’.

John later took his to Scotland, but his visit was tainted by an accident he had in his Austin Maxi car.

He, Ono and Kyoko sustained cuts to the face and Ono’s back was injured.They were taken to Golspie’s Lawson Memorial Hospital where Lennon was given facial stitches, Ono 14 in her forehead, and Kyoko four. Julian Lennon was treated for shock but was otherwise unhurt. He was taken to stay with Lennon’s Aunt Mater in Durness, around 50 miles away, before his mother Cynthia took him back to London the following day.When she arrived at the hospital to demand an explanation from Lennon he refused to see her.Lennon remained in hospital for five days and famously told reporters: 

“If you’re going to have a car crash, try to arrange for it to happen in the Highlands.“The hospital there was just great.”

Lennon was never a confident driver and gave up driving after the accident, hiring a chauffeur to take him wherever he needed to go and reportedly having the old car’s carcass mounted on a pillar at his English estate.

This 1969 crash wasn’t John’s first brush with danger on Scottish roads; Ken McNab, author of The Beatles in Scotland, revealed that the Beatles had an accident during their first tour in 1960, when they were backing up singer Johnny Gentle as the Silver Beetles.

As McNab put it, “John Lennon began the ’60s with a car crash in Scotland and managed to end the decade with another car crash in Scotland.”

There is a wee memorial garden to Lennon’s memory in Durness, other memorials in the country include a bench in Edinburgh’s Princes Street Gardens and a plaque  in Durness.
