While everyone loves that just-cleaned-teeth feeling, regular hygiene visits are so much more than just a cleaning.

We do x-rays to examine parts of your mouth below the surface. We inspect for tooth decay, gum disease, cavities, and any teeth that may be in need of repair.

And yes, we clean your teeth to get rid of tartar and plaque buildup that you cannot take care of on your own at home.

Dental care is health care.

How often are you changing your toothbrush? If you're not changing it every three months, you should be!

Also, you should be replacing your toothbrush if you have been sick or if your bristles are frayed.

The best way to keep plaque off your teeth is to make sure you have the right tools to keep your teeth clean! 🪥

Worried about sugar and food particles sitting on your kid's teeth all day while they're at school?

There are things you can do and empower your children to do to make sure they keep their teeth clean and healthy during the school day.

1. Pack healthy snacks and drink options. Reducing sugar consumption throughout the day will help your kids keep their teeth clean.

2. Remind them to drink water throughout the day. Drinking water will rinse off some of the food particles and will boost their body's natural ability to clean itself after a meal.

School lunches aren't always the best nutritional choices, so how can we make sure our kids are making good choices with foods at school?

If they're bringing their own lunch, talk to your kids about what they would like in their lunch boxes. Ask them what fruits and veggies they enjoy eating.

Make it fun and something they'll enjoy. If they are getting lunch at school, encourage them to get at least a fruit or veggie with their meal and not to spend all their money on sugary drinks and snacks.

Remind them to drink water as well! This will wash away some of the sugar and food particles that can get stuck on and in between teeth.

Are you remembering to brush your teeth after eating sweets this summer?

Waiting 30 minutes after eating before brushing is a good rule of thumb to make sure you aren't damaging the enamel on your teeth.

Don't have a way to brush your teeth soon after eating sweets? Try drinking more water. This will help remove bacteria and increase your saliva production so the sugar doesn't get stuck as easily to your teeth!

We all know citrus fruits, like oranges can be a good source of Vitamin C, but the citric acid in citrus fruits can also do damage to your teeth.

To avoid damage from eating citrus fruits and other acidic foods, be sure to brush your teeth at least 30 minutes after eating, as brushing right away can cause more harm than good to your teeth.
