We love smiles in general, but did you know that, according to a French neurologist named Guillaume Duchenne, there are two types of smiles?

The first is the Duchenne smile, which is genuine, reaches your eyes, and makes the corners wrinkle up with crow’s feet. The second is a non-Duchenne smile, which is considered “polite” or non-genuine.

Research shows that almost half of adults ages 30 and up (47.2%) experience some form of gum disease.

Known as a “silent epidemic,” gum disease is often painless and goes unnoticed until patients experience serious issues, including tooth loss. Fortunately, when treated early, gum health can be protected, and gum disease progression can be intercepted and slowed. If you’re experiencing bleeding, gum sensitivity or soreness, gum recession, painful chewing, bad breath that won’t go away, or any changes in how your teeth fit together, call us today. We’ll perform a thorough examination and provide a customized treatment plan to help protect your smile!

The nation’s most popular breakfast drink, orange juice is full of vitamin C, which benefits tooth structure, support, and maintenance.

But did you know that because of its high acid content, this beverage has been shown to cause enamel erosion and increase a person’s risk for tooth decay?

To protect your smile, drink OJ quickly and rinse your mouth thoroughly with water afterward, and be sure to wait at least 30 minutes before you brush, which gives your enamel time to remineralize and build itself back up.
