Ouch!

Said Sally, after a liberal bite of ice cream.

Sensitive teeth are common, but just because they’re common doesn’t mean they’re welcome.

While the phenomenon of sensitive teeth is caused by a number of different factors, we have a few ready solutions to the problem:

First, and obviously, use a toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth.

Second, use only soft bristled toothbrushes.

Third, if you are a grinder, consider using a mouthguard at night.

And, lastly – come visit us ;)

A dentist's hands are used to repair fractured teeth, remove tooth decay, and to fill cavities.

But what’s really happening upstairs?

Among their many responsibilities, a good dentist will provide meaningful advice on how to maintain good dental hygiene.

This can include instruction on how to clean the teeth, how to prevent issues before they arise, and even dietary advice to ensure that your teeth remain healthy and strong.

Many dental issues remain symptomless until they become more serious.

If you feel like you could improve your dental health, drop us a question in the comments below and we’ll let you know how to get started today :)

A question we receive a lot is…
Why do my gums bleed when I brush/floss my teeth?
The most common reason is that you have an excess buildup of plaque or tartar, which comes from eating sugary or acidic foods, and a lack of brushing.
Plaque and tartar allow bacteria to grow along the gumline.
Regularly brushing and flossing can help to prevent sensitivity and bleeding from the gums.
We'll say it again - brush your teeth!

One study found that 73% of Americans brush their teeth twice per day.

For the other 27%, here is some info for you!

Preventing tooth decay can be very simple, and one of the best ways to achieve this is to brush twice daily: once before you go to bed, and once at some other point during the day.

Fluoride toothpaste works the best in this case.

Keep that up, see your dentist twice per year, and you’re in the clear!

Ever wonder where modern dentistry got its start?

Many would argue that it all began with Pierre Fauchard, a French physician who became known as the "father of modern dentistry".

In his book "Le Chirurgien Dentiste" (The Surgeon Dentist), Fauchard introduced many new concepts that revolutionized dentistry, such as:

-dental fillings as treatment for cavities
-dental braces
-new methods for replacing lost teeth
-the assertion that sugar-derived acids cause tooth decay

After his work, the study of dentistry exploded. This has led to the world of modern dentistry that we know today!

Leave us a comment below if you’d like to learn more about Fauchard and how far we've come since his visionary work :)

Ew. What’s that smell?
Nobody likes to have bad breath. It’s embarrassing and can hold you back from living the life you want to live.
Sometimes the cause of bad breath is simply poor oral hygiene, like if you don't brush your teeth before you leave the house in the morning.
Other times, it's not as simple. Bad breath is also caused by infections, dry mouth, medications, nose/throat conditions, and of course by certain eating foods.
The first step to fighting bad breath is brushing/flossing twice daily. You can also make sure to eat healthy, and stay hydrated.
If you complete all these steps and your bad breath persists, it may be caused by a deeper underlying issue. In this case, it is wise to see your dentist who can diagnose and provide treatment for the problem.
So before you reach for that pack of gum, think about what changes you can make that will improve your overall oral health.
Those around you will be very thankful ;)
