Brushing, Flossing and Heart Disease

The correlation between gum disease and heart disease is real. When your gums cannot act as a defense against bacteria, your heart can be affected. 

Keep your mouth clean and your heart happy!

Dental Cleaning Appoint Today = Fast and Furious Brushing & Flossing

Is this you? Enthusiastic brushing and flossing right before your dental appointment are appreciated by us (clean mouths are nice) but you are robbing yourself of the long-term benefits of a healthy, clean mouth when you are not consistent in your own oral health care habits.

How can you improve your daily oral hygiene this month?

Oscar Performance at the Dental Office?

We would much rather you tell us you are struggling with brushing and flossing every day instead of trying to "convince" us otherwise. Your teeth and gums will always tell the truth. Just embrace what needs to improve in your life, and let us be part of your future success story!

Time for a New Toothbrush?

When was the last time you replaced your toothbrush? Toothpaste tubes remind us they need to be replaced because they run out, but sometimes we hang on to our toothbrushes way too long!

The American Dental Association recommends replacing toothbrushes every 3-4 months, or immediately after an illness. We've met some patients who hang onto their favorite toothbrush like a security blanket. When the bristles are misshapen, frayed or missing, it is well beyond time to upgrade. 

If you are looking for a replacement, may we suggest the Oral-B Genius toothbrush that we carry in our office? The options and perks with this toothbrush are endless. 

Drop on by to pick a new toothbrush up today! You won't regret it.
