😣 Hoping it goes away isn't a treatment plan.

Dental emergencies rarely get better on their own.

A small crack can become a broken tooth.
A mild toothache can turn into intense pain.
An infection can become a much bigger problem.

The earlier we see you, the more options we often have to save your tooth and get you comfortable again.

🦷 Your Dentist’s Top 3 Tips for a Healthier Smile

If you want to keep your teeth and gums healthy, start with these three simple habits:

🧵 Floss every day to clean where your toothbrush can’t reach.

💧 Use a fluoride mouthwash in the evening to help strengthen and protect your teeth.

🦷 Keep up with your six-month checkups so your dental team can monitor your oral health and catch potential problems early.

They may sound simple, but consistency is what makes the difference.

✨ Healthy smiles are built with the little things you do every day.

Save this as your reminder to floss tonight! 😉

Bleeding when you brush or floss? 👀

It could be a sign that plaque is building up and causing inflammation around your gums.

The good news? Your home care matters.

🪥 Brush consistently
🧵 Floss every day
🦷 Clean along the gum line

Removing plaque regularly can help reduce inflammation and bleeding and keep your gums healthier.

Healthy gums start at home. 🦷

Even punchier version:

Your gums are bleeding? Don’t just ignore it. 🩸🦷

Plaque is a major source of gum inflammation, and the best place to start fighting it is at home.

🧵 Floss
🔁 Stay consistent

The little things you do every day can make a big difference in your gum health.

Waiting two weeks to be seen for tooth pain was never your only option. Here is what we do differently.

When you call us in pain we do not put you on a waitlist. We put you on today's schedule.

Broken tooth. Throbbing abscess. Crown that came out at the worst possible moment. These are not problems you should have to manage for two weeks with ibuprofen and hope.

Call today. Be seen today. That is not a tagline. It is how we actually schedule. 📞🦷

Just got a crown? Here’s how to take care of it. 🦷✨

The #1 thing Dr. Burton recommends? Floss!

Your toothbrush can’t clean everything… especially around the area where your crown meets your natural tooth. Flossing helps keep that area clean and your gums healthy.

🧵 Traditional floss or a water flosser, either can work.
🪥 Keep brushing as usual.
🍎 After the cement has had time to set, you can generally eat and function normally.

And no, you don’t automatically need extra cleanings just because you have a crown. Stick with your regular cleaning schedule unless your dentist recommends more frequent visits based on your individual needs.

Treat your crown like a natural tooth: keep it clean, floss around it, and keep your gums healthy. 🦷

You may have heard about nano hydroxyapatite as an ingredient in toothpaste and wondered if it really works.

Dr. Burton breaks down what it is and how it can fit into your oral care routine.

Hydroxyapatite is a mineral naturally found in your teeth, and nano hydroxyapatite can provide an additional source of those minerals. But there’s an important distinction: it doesn’t automatically mean your teeth will remineralize.

Your teeth need the right environment to support their natural repair process.

That’s why Dr. Burton recommends looking at nano hydroxyapatite as a useful tool alongside fluoride, rather than relying on it alone.

🎥 Watch Dr. Burton explain what you should know before making the switch.

🦷 Good oral health starts with understanding what actually works for your teeth.

🚨 Think you have a toothache? It could actually be your jaw.

One commonly overlooked cause of dental pain is TMJ-related pain…especially during stressful periods when you may be grinding or clenching your teeth in your sleep without even realizing it.

That grinding can irritate the jaw muscles and joints, creating pain that can feel surprisingly similar to a toothache. 😣

If you're experiencing jaw pain or unexplained tooth pain, don't ignore it.

🦷 Your dentist can help determine what's causing the pain and recommend the right treatment, which may include a bite splint to help protect your teeth and give your jaw joint time to recover.

📞 Experiencing jaw or tooth pain? Give us a call and let’s take a closer look.
