Halloween may be behind us, but chances are the candy isn’t. Bowls of chocolate and sticky sweets linger in kitchens, lunchboxes, and office break rooms long after the costumes are put away. And just as the last of the candy stash disappears, Thanksgiving pies, stuffing, and holiday desserts begin to take center stage.
In every family, there are old sayings and rules of thumb that get passed down from generation to generation. Some are harmless traditions, but when it comes to dental care, not all of that advice stands the test of time. In fact, a few of the most common dental “tips” we hear from patients are actually myths. We believe good oral health starts with good information. So let’s set the record straight on some of the myths that still circulate today.
Gibbs is our furriest team member, no question about it! He’s also the only dog on the team, so that’s no surprise. How does a dog help our dental practice? It’s simple: Gibbs is there to provide comfort to anyone who needs it.
Our office is swarming with machines, and their mission is to provide state-of-the-art dental care to all our patients! Yes, by using the latest technology, we’re able to provide your smile with the high-quality care it deserves.
When people think about the dentist, they focus on teeth, but we care about your gums just as much! Most people don’t pay much attention to their gums, which is why gum disease is a common problem that a lot of adults face. Gum disease is linked to serious issues like tooth loss and even cardiac events, so we hope that during National Gum Care Month, you’ll take our advice seriously.
If your teeth feel fine, you might feel like you can skip your regular visits. Unfortunately, teeth that look and feel alright could still be hiding problems, like tooth decay and gum disease. Your health is important, which is why it’s essential to get regular dental health checks.
