Kombucha is considered a healthy drink … but does it hurt your teeth? Well, it’s nearly as acidic as vinegar or pop, so it wears away tooth enamel and increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease — and it can also stain teeth. Try sipping it through a straw and drink some water afterwards so you can still enjoy this popular fermented tea.

Children’s permanent teeth grow in with three little bumps on the tooth called “mamelons.” These are normal and wear down over time, which is why most adults don’t have these bumps. Feel free to ask us questions about mamelons or tooth development at your next appointment.

Here's a fun groundhog's day fact! A groundhog's teeth never stop growing. They grow about 1/16 of an inch per week. Groundhogs wear down their teeth through constant usage. This helps to prevent any issues from arising.

Did you know we accept new patients of all ages?

We love working with children and setting them on the right path for a lifetime of excellent oral hygiene. We love chatting with kids and teens about their favorite video games (even if we haven’t heard of them). And we love sitting down to catch up with our adult patients — it’s almost like a social call.

As always, we’re so appreciative when you refer your friends, neighbors, and colleagues to us when they’re looking for a new dental practice. Thank you!

It’s important for children (and grownups) to brush their teeth before going to bed. During the day, your mouth produces saliva to help keep itself clean. You produce less saliva at night. This means it’s very important to brush before bed to make sure your mouth is free from decay-causing sugar and bacteria.

Most patients are curious about what to expect from braces - that’s why we create an individual treatment plan and walk you through the process before the braces are placed. Typically, it takes two to three months to start noticing changes, but some patients see changes in as little as four weeks.
The time that a patient wears braces varies too! Most treatments last from 18 to 24 months but can be longer or shorter.
Book a consultation to find out what you can expect and if braces are right for you.

Got a toothache? Here are a few things you can try to get some relief from the pain while you wait to see your dentist.

Try rinsing your mouth with warm water and flossing between your teeth to dislodge any food particles that may be causing the discomfort. If the tooth has been injured, try applying a cold compress on your face near the area. You may also get relief with over-the-counter pain medications taken as directed. Do NOT place aspirin directly on the tooth or gum as it will cause a chemical burn and will not help your toothache.

Call us right away at (508) 234-5073 if you develop any of these symptoms: the toothache becomes more severe, there are signs of infection such as inflammation, swelling, and redness in the area, you develop a fever, or you have trouble breathing or swallowing.

Untreated tooth decay can lead to problems with dental health and overall health including dental pain, infections and abscesses. If the decay is detected soon enough, it can sometimes be reversed with treatment. Regular dental exams are key for early detection, so book an examination with us today!

One simple way to check if you’ve done a good job brushing and flossing is the tongue test! Run your tongue across the surface of your teeth, especially at the gum line. If you find any areas that don’t feel smooth and slick, you may need to give those areas some extra attention!

After getting their wisdom teeth removed, most people fully recover from wisdom teeth removal in 3-4 days. In rare cases, recovery can take a week or more. While we will provide you with detailed guidelines for your particular situation, here are some general tips to help.
Try to eat soft foods like pasta, pudding, smoothies, or soup, making sure it’s not too hot. Drink plenty of fluids and avoid strenuous activity. Rinse your mouth gently with salt water as directed, and don’t start brushing your teeth until the second day. Use an ice pack on your face and take any medications as prescribed to ease pain or swelling. Try to avoid drinking through a straw and don’t eat hard, crunchy, or sticky foods. Finally, avoid smoking because it can slow healing.
Following these simple guidelines will ensure you’re taking the best care of yourself during recovery. If you have any other questions or concerns, please get in touch!

A bridge is a great way to replace one or more missing teeth by literally “bridging the gap” between your remaining teeth.

Using the teeth on either side of the gap as supports, we secure a fixed bridge made up of realistic-looking artificial crowns that will need to be brushed and flossed, just like natural teeth.

Curious if a fixed bridge would be a good long-term solution for your missing teeth? Call (508) 234-5073 to learn more.

Most people bite their cheek occasionally in moments of inattention. That’s nothing to worry about. However, some patients find themselves biting their cheek accidentally a lot more often. This may indicate a more deeply-rooted problem such as a misalignment of teeth, TMD or simply a nervous habit. We can help align teeth, or adjust dentures or bridges, to prevent frequent cheek-biting and improve your bite. Be sure to let us know if this is a concern at your next dental visit.
