Are you or a loved one planning to get braces in the near future? It can be overwhelming at first, determining which foods are safe to eat with braces and which foods should be avoided. Unfortunately, some of your favorite foods may be on the “do not eat” list, and for the safety of your braces and your treatment plan, we recommend holding off on eating those foods while you are wearing your braces. There are also foods that we suggest having on hand when you get your braces for the first time or the first few days after an adjustment when your teeth and gums may be a little tender.

Extra Protection In The Fight Against Cavities

Do you find that you frequently have food stuck in your teeth, even after brushing? Or maybe this happens to someone you are close to. It is not uncommon for a number of patients, especially children, to have food remaining in the deep grooves of the back molars after brushing. This leads to lingering bacteria and becomes a breeding ground for tooth decay, eventually resulting in cavities. Children are especially susceptible to this due to their habit of frequent snacking. We offer a treatment solution that can aid in the prevention of cavities on the back molars. Continue reading to learn more.

June has arrived, which only means one thing – Summer Vacation! Children rejoice over summer vacation due to the lack of school responsibilities, longer days, and endless amounts of fun. Days are spent lounging, playing with friends, swimming, and enjoying the outdoors. Thankfully, this summer, children are able to enjoy more of the traditional summer experience, as last year that really wasn’t an option. Families are seeing each other again, and vacations have been planned. With all of the fun that is happening, it is important that you keep your children’s oral health in mind because a dental emergency can really put a damper on your summer. With these tips, we want to make sure that your child has a happy summer and a healthy mouth.

Even though our patients are excited to show off their new smiles, it is important to understand that the journey to straight teeth is not over yet. There is still another device needed to help the teeth remain in beautiful condition—the retainer.
