Mouthguard - by Brian VAUGHN

Dr. Lokota recommended the prosomnus mouthguard. It has totally changed the quality of my life. I don't grind my teeth or snore while sleeping. And the best part is no more dozing off while driving home from work at 3am. Thank you Dr. Mike

✨ A little extra comfort goes a long way. ✨

At our office, we know the dental chair isn’t everyone’s favorite place to be, so we try to make your visit feel a little more relaxing and a little more pampering. 💜

During your cleaning appointment, patients can enjoy a warm paraffin hand treatment to help soothe, relax, and make their time with us a little more enjoyable. From the warm mitts to friendly smiles, we love creating an experience that helps you forget you’re even at the dentist for a little while. 😊

Because caring for our patients goes beyond just healthy smiles. 🦷✨

💙❤️ The Lakota Dental Crew had a great night at Wrigley celebrating Dr. Mike’s birthday!
A little Cubs baseball, a lot of team bonding, and plenty of memories made. We may not have gotten the result we wanted, but we still had an amazing time together. ⚾️🎉

🌟 It’s true! 🦷 One of the primary causes of gingivitis and receding gums is a buildup of plaque,
tartar, and oral bacteria on your gum line. 😲 While brushing your teeth is essential, brushing away
the bacteria on your gums and tongue is too. 👏
