Even if a lost filling is not causing pain, your tooth should still be evaluated. Teeth rely on fillings to stay strong and sealed against bacteria.

Ever wonder why sipping ice water can make your tooth zing? That sensation doesn’t come from the outside of the tooth itself, but from what’s happening deep inside. Tiny channels within the tooth, called dentin tubules, transmit changes that activate nerves, turning temperature shifts into sharp discomfort. It’s a microscopic process with a very noticeable reaction. If you're experiencing this kind of sensitivity, call +1 831-449-2276 to schedule a checkup.

Your gums can tell when you’ve been “too busy” to floss. Flossing removes plaque from places your toothbrush can’t reach, helping reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease. Just one minute of flossing daily can help remove plaque in hard-to-reach spots and support long-term oral health. Consistency in flossing makes a difference. Call us +1 831-449-2276 to schedule a checkup and keep your smile healthy.
