We know that many of our patients are extremely busy during this time of year. Between work, end-of-school celebrations, sports, family outings, and time with friends, it can feel like there is never a free minute during the week. No matter how busy you may be, it is important to make your oral health a priority. You only have one set of teeth for your lifetime, so it is important to care for them properly.
While everyone would love to have excellent oral health, that is not always the case, and on occasion, we may experience tooth decay. When patients visit our office regularly for routine hygiene examinations, we are able to ensure that there are no problems with their oral health, such as tooth decay.
There is the popular saying, “You are what you eat,” which means the foods you consume can have an effect on your body and overall health. The same is true for your oral health.

We are so happy that it is finally spring. Spring is a popular time for “spring cleaning,” which is the process of thoroughly cleaning your home to remove the lingering effects of the winter. We encourage our patients to do the same with their oral health. If it has been some time since your last visit, spring is the perfect time to schedule an oral hygiene examination and cleaning. Read on to learn more.
With spring arriving in a few short days, there is no better time to schedule an oral hygiene examination and cleaning. During these visits, we not only thoroughly clean your teeth, but we also check for problems in your mouth, such as dental decay. If we detect decay, also known as a cavity, we will recommend that you schedule an appointment for a filling. The process of filling a tooth includes removing the harmful decay and replacing it with a composite material that blends in with the remaining tooth enamel. Receiving treatment as soon as we recommend it is extremely important. Cavities cannot heal on their own and will continue to expand, potentially leading to the need for a more involved treatment.
Do you avoid visiting our office because you suffer from dental anxiety? When it comes to dental care, a large number of adults experience some degree of nervousness or anxiety. While we are sympathetic to everyone’s feelings, avoiding dental care is not the answer. Not getting the care you need can have serious consequences for your current and future oral health. We want to share three helpful ways you can relax during your dental visit. Read on to learn more about these tips.
