Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Steven D. Alaniz

Sourced directly from Dr. Steven D. Alaniz's social posts and replies.

How can I minimize coffee stains on my teeth?
Coffee can leave behind surface stains over time, but you don’t have to give up your favorite cup. Dr. Alaniz recommends drinking water afterward to help rinse away lingering pigments and acids, and maintaining regular brushing and dental cleanings.

What are the benefits of clear aligners?
Clear aligners are designed to integrate into your routine, not dictate it. They are clear, discreet, and removable, making it easier to straighten your smile while still eating the foods you love, showing up confidently, and going about your everyday routine.
Source →
Can I whiten my teeth if I have dental restorations?
Dental restorations such as crowns, fillings, and veneers are made from different materials than natural teeth, so they may not respond to whitening in the same way. Dr. Alaniz advises consulting with your dentist first to understand what to expect and find the best option for your smile.

What should I do if I chip a tooth?
If you chip a tooth, rinse with warm water and avoid chewing on the affected side. Use a cold compress for any swelling. If you find the broken piece, hold onto it. Then, contact your dentist. Even a small, painless chip is worth a closer look to make sure there isn’t more damage beneath the surface. Don’t wait on a chipped tooth!

What makes a mouthguard effective?
The most effective mouthguard is the one you’ll actually wear. Comfort and fit matter, too. A mouthguard should fit securely and comfortably so it can do its job without becoming a distraction during practice or a game.
Source →
How can I maintain healthy gums?
Your gums deserve attention. Keep up with brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits, and don’t ignore changes that stick around.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$910

Payments

15

Compared to peers

Modest

Dr. Steven D. Alaniz received $910 across 15 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 56% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as travel and lodging, and the largest single payer was Dentsply Sirona Inc.

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
