Your visit includes critical preventative and diagnostic measures:
Oral Cancer Screenings: Dentists and hygienists are specifically trained to identify abnormal tissues, lesions, or lumps in your mouth and throat to catch issues early.
Periodontal Evaluations: They map and measure your gum health to prevent periodontitis, which reduces the risk of inflammation connected to heart disease, strokes, and blood sugar issues.
Diagnostic X-rays: Imaging detects decay hiding between teeth, bone strength loss, cysts, and abscesses that aren’t visible to the naked eye.
TMJ & Bite Assessment: Your dentist evaluates your bite function, jaw movement, and can detect teeth grinding (bruxism) to prevent worn teeth and joint discomfort.

🦷 We’re Hiring a Part-Time Hygienist! (1–2 Days/Week)
Exciting things are happening in NW OKC — and we want you to be part of it from the start!

We’re opening a brand new dental facility and are looking for a part-time hygienist to help build something great.

What we offer:
* Assisted hygiene support — our trained dental assistants handle polishing when the schedule calls for it, so you stay productive without burning out
* A brand new, state-of-the-art workspace
* ...and if you’re good at pickleball, that definitely doesn’t hurt 🏓 (not required, but we’re watching)

Experience: Ortho aligner and sealant experience is a plus, but we’re happy to train the right candidate. What matters most is your passion for patient care and communication skills.

Get in on the ground floor of something new — and maybe bring your paddle!

1. Toothpicks are fragile, break easily, and the tiny fragments can become lodged in the gum tissue which causes damage and leads to infection.
2. The end of a toothpick can function as a vehicle for bacteria and germs to enter
the mouth.
3. Toothpicks can also damage tooth enamel, as well as dental restorations like crowns, fillings, or even veneers.
4. Heavy toothpick use can also shift your gum down and expose more of your tooth’s sensitive root.
5. Believe it or not, toothpicks can also create additional space between teeth.
🦷So what should be used?🦷
Dental Floss
Oral irrigator
Floss picks

Dental Tip: When you're squeezing toothpaste onto your toothbrush, try not to make contact with the bristles.
Doing so can contaminate your toothpaste tube with germs! 🦷🪥
