A different kind of hygiene experience. 🤍

At Smiles by Hazen, our hygiene team is focused on more than just cleaning teeth. We believe patients deserve to feel comfortable, informed, and genuinely cared for during every visit.

Our wellness hygienists take time to explain what they’re seeing, answer questions without judgment, and personalize care based on each patient’s needs and overall health goals.

Using Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with EMS Airflow technology, we’re able to provide a gentle, modern hygiene experience while supporting gum health, oral microbiome balance, and long-term wellness.

Most importantly, we want patients to feel known when they come here — not rushed through an appointment.

We are so grateful for this incredible team and the care they provide every day. ✨

Sometimes the mouth is the first place inflammation appears.

Bleeding gums, dry mouth, delayed healing, chronic inflammation, mouth sores, fatigue-related oral changes, and periodontal breakdown are not always “just dental.”

Blood sugar balance, inflammation markers, immune health, vitamin levels, and healing capacity can all influence what we see in the mouth.

At Smiles by Hazen, wellness dentistry looks beyond teeth alone. We evaluate how the body heals, how inflammation affects oral tissues, and how oral health connects to whole-body wellness.

Because healthy gums are not isolated from the rest of the body.

This is not about diagnosing disease from bloodwork. It’s about recognizing patterns that may influence healing, inflammation, periodontal stability, and long-term wellness.

Healthy smiles need healthy foundations.

Summer break is here ☀️

And if you’re a parent, you know what usually happens next…
The routines go right out the window.

More snacking. More sports drinks. Later nights. Less structure.

As a busy mom myself, I get it. But small daily habits can make a big difference for growing smiles 🪥

One of the biggest things we see during the summer?
Frequent sugary snacks and acidic drinks throughout the day increasing the risk for cavities and enamel wear.

A few simple reminders can help protect your child’s smile all season long:

✔ Brush 2x/day
✔ Drink water between snacks
✔ Avoid constant sipping on sugary or acidic drinks
✔ Keep bedtime brushing consistent

Consistency matters more than perfection 💙

Most people were taught to think about dentistry as “checking for cavities.”

But your mouth often tells us much more.

Bleeding gums.
Grinding.
Inflammation.
Dry mouth.
Worn teeth.
Changes in your bite.

These can sometimes be connected to stress, sleep quality, airway health, inflammation, nutrition, and overall wellness.

That’s why our office takes a different approach.

At Smiles by Hazen, we look at the mouth as part of the entire body — not separate from it.

Technology like wellness scans, airway-focused evaluations, biofilm therapy, and advanced diagnostics help us look deeper so we can support long-term health, function, and longevity.

Because dentistry should not just be about fixing teeth.
It should help support the health of the person attached to them.

There’s a lot happening behind the scenes before you ever sit in the dental chair.

Scheduling, insurance coordination, treatment planning, answering questions, helping patients feel comfortable, and making sure every visit runs smoothly.

Our front desk team works incredibly hard to create a welcoming experience from the moment you walk through the door.

At Smiles by Hazen, we believe great care starts long before treatment begins. It starts with people who genuinely care about making patients feel seen, heard, and taken care of.

We’re grateful for a team that leads with kindness, professionalism, and heart every single day. 💛

Most people think crooked teeth are only a cosmetic issue. But malocclusion, which simply means your bite is not balanced correctly, can affect much more than your smile.

When the bite is off, the teeth and jaw joints absorb uneven pressure every single day.

That can lead to:

• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Gum recession
• Headaches or jaw tension
• Teeth grinding
• Uneven wear that makes teeth look older faster
• Difficulty keeping certain areas clean

The challenge is that many people adapt to these symptoms slowly over time, so they don’t realize their bite is contributing to the problem.

At Smiles by Hazen, we look beyond “straight teeth.” We evaluate how your teeth function together, how your jaw moves, and how your bite may be impacting the long-term health of your smile.

Because the goal is not just aesthetics. It’s creating a healthier, more stable foundation that helps protect your teeth for years to come.

A balanced bite can help:

• Reduce destructive pressure on teeth
• Improve comfort and function
• Support healthier gums
• Make teeth easier to maintain
• Create a more natural, confident smile

Your mouth was designed to function in harmony. When it does, everything works better.

I still remember watching a patient in my dad’s dental office try in a new set of dentures.

For the first time in years, he could speak clearly again.

I still remember the emotion in the room. The patient was crying. His wife was crying. The entire team was crying. In that moment, I realized dentistry was so much more than fixing teeth.

It was about restoring confidence, health, and quality of life.

That experience is what led me into dentistry, and for the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of serving patients and families throughout Central Florida.

Over the years, my philosophy has continued to evolve.

Today, I’m passionate about wellness dentistry and focusing on the bigger picture: the oral microbiome, whole-body health, and creating strong, balanced bites that are not only beautiful, but functional and built to last for decades.

But more than anything, the relationships are what mean the most to me.

One of my favorite parts of practicing for this long is truly knowing my patients. Watching families grow. Hearing life updates at appointments. Celebrating milestones together. Being trusted with someone’s health year after year is something I never take for granted.

So to every patient who has sat in my chair over the last 20 years…

Thank you for trusting me. 🤍

Your dental cleaning should feel more like modern healthcare… and less like scraping and discomfort.

At Smiles by Hazen, our hygiene team uses Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with advanced EMS Airflow technology to create a cleaner, gentler, more thorough experience.

Biofilm is the sticky bacterial layer that builds up on teeth, gums, restorations, implants, and even under the gumline. Traditional cleanings often rely heavily on hand scraping. GBT approaches it differently.

Using warm water, guided airflow, and ultra-fine powder technology, we’re able to target harmful bacteria in a way that is:

• More comfortable for sensitive teeth
• Gentle around gums, crowns, veneers, and implants
• Less scraping for many patients
• More precise and minimally invasive
• Designed to disrupt the bacteria that contribute to inflammation and gum disease

Most patients immediately notice the difference in how their cleaning feels.

This is part of our wellness-focused philosophy. We believe prevention should be modern, thorough, and comfortable — not something patients dread.

If it’s been a while since your last cleaning, this is not the “old-school dental cleaning” you may remember.
