The office will be closed on Monday, May 30, 2022 for the observance of Memorial Day. We hope you all have a pleasant, safe, and peaceful weekend. May we take some moments to consider the sacrifices our Americans in uniform have made on our behalf, so that we can enjoy our lives in the USA.

The dental office is open on Tuesday, May 31, 2022, at 8 am. If you do have an emergency over the weekend please do call the office at (513) 631-6600 and follow the voice mail system prompts. If something comes up that is not emergent feel free to contact us through the website www.fyasmile.com or email the Practice Director directly at [email protected].

When To Call a Local Emergency Dentist First:

In the majority of oral health emergencies, patients should contact their emergency dentists before heading to the ER. In addition to helping patients manage symptoms, dental professionals can treat underlying conditions and ensure they do not grow worse. For individuals who are not sure what constitutes a “dental emergency” as opposed to a non-urgent yet uncomfortable situation, the ADA provides guidance. Per the ADA, a dental emergency is a situation characterized by one or more of the following:

-Bleeding that will not stop
-Infection accompanied by swelling or pain
-Painful swelling around or in the mouth, with or without infection
-Chipped, broken, or dislocated teeth
-Abscess with localized pain and swelling and no signs of
complications
-Loss of a permanent or temporary restoration

Treatment will be with Dr. Robert Yoxthimer and involves a series of aligner trays, each one progressing further along in the treatment process.

These aligners require regular in-office dental visits, including an initial visit with Dr. Yoxthimer to conduct 3D scans and determine eligibility. Like all clear aligners, these aren't meant for the most complex cases of dental malocclusion (teeth and bite misalignment).

Please feel free to reach out with any questions at 513-631-6600.
