“Do I need X-rays at every dental visit?”

This is one of the questions we hear most often—and the answer is not necessarily!

Dental X-rays aren’t automatically needed at every appointment. They’re recommended based on your individual oral health, dental history, age, risk factors, and specific needs.

X-rays help your dentist detect issues that may not be visible during a regular exam, such as cavities between teeth, bone loss, infections, and other concerns before they become bigger problems.

📸 Think of X-rays as an extra set of eyes!
Your dentist will recommend X-rays when they’re clinically necessary to provide you with the best possible care.

Have questions about your X-rays? We’re always happy to explain! 🦷

Worth the detour, and they even sell floss! Neighbours support neighbors!

⚠️ A plea: As most are aware but maybe not all, this 55+ year old successful, family-run store is not promised tomorrow. THE BRIDGE ON SEAL COVE ROAD THAT CONNECTS US TO ALL OTHER PARTS OF THE ENTIRETY OF CBS HAS BEEN OUT OF COMMISSION SINCE MAY 4, 2026. RESTORATION TIME IS “EARLY WINTER”…

Although we are still accessible via a detour, we understand that people don’t want to burn extra gas and take extra time and to go out of their way when they could just get on Peacekeeprs Way and go to Sobeys and the corporate liquor store in Long Pond.

The bridge is now expected to be completed in December. Not to be negative, but realistic, it’s likely to be well into 2027 before the bridge is completed. This will no doubt run us into the ground.

💡 Imagine there being a huge hole on Fowler’s Road for a full year making it impassible! A non-thoroughfare on Fowler’s Road? For a year? It just wouldn’t happen.

Please see Town of Conception Bay South posts on this matter/their timeline in the comments.

We have reached out to The Town of CBS. It has been 2 weeks now and no response.

A lot of blood, sweat and tears have gone into this place since we (Thomas, Kristen & Brody (8)) took over this “Mom ‘n Pop Shop’ over 5 years ago. To have it slowly slip away from us is really hard to put into words. This store is like our second child.

We thought we could survive missing our busy Summer period. Now for our busy Christmas period to also be gone….well that’s our bread and butter gone for the year. Small, independent businesses simply can’t miss the Summer and Christmas rushes.

Our plea is that when and/or if you are able, please come visit us. We simply need people coming in through the door.

We are open Labour Day Monday.
We have everything you need under one roof.

Take care and thank you to our loyal customers who make the trek through the detour to see us. Please share, like or comment. We are at our wits end and we don’t know what to do.

Please note that our office will be closed on Monday , September 7th in observance of Labour Day.

Have a great long weekend

It’s recommended that your baby have their first dental visit by age 1, or within 6 months of their first tooth appearing whichever comes first!

You don’t need to wait until they have a full set of teeth. Starting early helps us monitor their oral health and can also help your little one become comfortable with visiting the dentist.

At their first visit, the dentist will typically:

🦷 Check their teeth and gums as they develop
✨ Look for early signs of tooth decay
🪥 Talk about brushing and fluoride toothpaste
🍼 Discuss feeding, bottles, sippy cups and nighttime habits
💬 Answer questions about teething, pacifiers, thumb-sucking and more

This young patient was looking to close the space between her two front teeth while preserving her natural smile. Using a conservative approach, Dr. Brobst completed chairside bonding in a single visit to reduce the gap—without removing any healthy tooth structure.

The result is a natural-looking smile, and one very happy patient who couldn’t wait to show it off!

Disclaimer: Every smile is unique, and treatment recommendations vary from patient to patient. bonding may not be the most appropriate option for everyone. Please consult with your dental professional to determine the treatment that’s best suited to your individual needs.

Healthy Gums Matter 🦷✨

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. They should be pink, firm, and free of bleeding.

If you notice redness, swelling, or bleeding when brushing or flossing, these may be early signs of gum disease. The good news is that when detected early, gum disease can often be treated before it progresses.

Maintaining healthy gums starts with brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and keeping up with regular professional cleanings and dental exams.

Your smile starts with healthy gums and we’re here to help keep them that way.

“I haven’t been to the dentist in years… where do I start?”

It’s one of the most common questions we hear from new patients—and the good news is, you’re not alone.

If it’s been a while since your last dental visit, we typically begin with a comprehensive exam and digital X-rays. This allows us to get a complete picture of your oral health, identify any areas of concern, and create a personalized treatment plan that’s tailored to your needs.

No matter how long it’s been, there’s no judgment—just a team that’s here to help you take the first step toward a healthier, more confident smile.
