If you are pregnant, your mouth is going through changes too, and it is more important than ever to pay attention.

Hormonal shifts make gums more prone to swelling, bleeding, and a condition called pregnancy gingivitis. Left unchecked, gum problems during pregnancy have even been linked to other health concerns. The good news: routine dental care is safe and encouraged during pregnancy, and a little extra attention goes a long way.

Expecting, or planning to be? Let Maplewood Dental Associates in Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick help you keep your gums healthy for two.

Remember when a filling meant a flash of silver every time you laughed? Those days are over.

Modern tooth-colored fillings are matched to your natural shade and bond right to the tooth, so they blend in completely. They look better, and they let us preserve more of your healthy tooth in the process. Many patients even choose to replace old metal fillings for a cleaner, more natural look.

Due for a filling, or thinking about updating an old one? Maplewood Dental Associates in Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick can help.

Here is a reminder that could save you real money: most dental benefits reset at the end of the year, and whatever you do not use, you lose.

If you have been putting off a cleaning, a filling, or that treatment we talked about, now is the time. Fall appointments fill up fast, and waiting until December often means waiting until next year.

Not sure what you have left? We are happy to help you check. Book your visit with Maplewood Dental Associates in Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick before the calendar runs out.

Wisdom teeth have a way of showing up uninvited, usually in the late teens or early twenties, and often without enough room to fit.

When they come in crooked, get stuck, or crowd the teeth you have worked hard to keep straight, addressing them early prevents pain, infection, and bigger problems later. Not everyone needs them out, which is exactly why a quick look and an X-ray matter.

Have a teen or young adult in that window? Maplewood Dental Associates in Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick can check whether those wisdom teeth need a plan.

While helping maintain their oral health, she also loves catching up on what’s happening in their lives - from travels and family to hobbies and everything in between.

Outside of the office, Sara loves travelling and makes a point of visiting somewhere new every year. She also enjoys going to the gym, gardening, spending time with friends, and cooking for her family.

We’re so lucky to have Sara as part of the Maplewood Dental Associates team!

Happy World Smile Day!

It started with one simple idea: do an act of kindness, and share a smile. We are fully on board, since smiles are kind of our whole thing.

So here is your feel-good assignment. Drop a smile emoji in the comments, tag someone who always makes you smile, or just go make someone’s day. We will start: we are grateful for every patient who trusts us with their smile.

Happy World Smile Day from Maplewood Dental Associates.

October 1st is the International Day of Older Persons, and it is a good reminder that dental care does not retire when you do.

As we age, a few things shift: medications can cause dry mouth, gums can recede, and older fillings or crowns may need attention. The payoff for staying on top of it is huge, keeping your natural teeth, eating comfortably, and protecting your overall health well into your golden years.

Caring for an older loved one? A regular checkup is one of the kindest things you can help with. Maplewood Dental Associates in Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick is here for every stage.

Fall face-off. Settle it for us.

Corn maze or pumpkin patch? Drop your pick in the comments.

Either way, we want to see the photos. Bonus points if there is a big smile in the frame, that is kind of our thing.

Have fun out there, Rehoboth Beach and Fenwick.
