Did you know that while orthodontists are dentists, you still need to see your general dentist for regular cleanings?

Orthodontists focus on the alignment of your teeth and jaws, while your general dentist keeps an eye on your overall oral health, including cleanings, cavities and gum health.

So even if you’re seeing your orthodontist regularly, don’t skip your dental checkups! 🦷

A little goes a long way! Using the right amount helps keep brushing effective while limiting how much toothpaste young children swallow.

Patients often wonder: Is a water flosser as effective as traditional floss?

While a water flosser can help rinse away food and debris, traditional floss physically removes plaque from the surfaces between your teeth.

So, traditional floss is still the gold standard for cleaning between your teeth. 🦷

A quick tick check should be part of your routine after hiking, gardening, or playing outside. The sooner a tick is found and removed, the better.

Check yourself, your kids, and your pets before heading inside!

When should you start brushing your baby's teeth?

The answer is simple: as soon as the first tooth appears!

Use a soft-bristled infant toothbrush and a rice grain-sized smear of toothpaste to help keep those tiny teeth healthy from day one.

We're honored to serve as a sponsor of this year's Sweeney Memorial Bracket Open.

The tennis tournament was created to honor the life and legacy of Sam Sweeney, a dear friend of Dr. Ben who left us far too soon earlier this year. While his passing has left an immeasurable void, his kindness, generosity, and the impact he had on so many continue to bring people together.

Dr. Ben is proud to be a founding member of the Sweeney Foundation, a 501(c)(3) established in Sam's memory. The foundation provides support to families facing sudden financial hardship, promotes youth development through tennis, organizes community events, and funds scholarships.

We're proud to support the Sweeney Foundation and grateful to everyone helping carry on Sam's legacy of compassion, generosity, and community.
