Recently came across a story about a TikTok video where an individual uses a nail file to reshape her teeth. Please don’t do this! It may seem harmless, but you can permanently damage your teeth and cause a myriad of problems! 🦷😬
Received this picture from one of our young patients...it is just the best! 💗
Are your kids teeth protected?

We often share with our patients the benefits of utilizing a waterpik for improved home care. For those who are Amazon shoppers, this is a great deal for a product that we utilize at home. 🦷😁
At BFD, we are always looking for ways to improve the dental experience! For those who have visited our office, we may have shared a little about this new equipment, but for those we haven’t seen recently, this is something different that you may notice at your next appointment.
This summer, we had a room constructed in our current attic space to allow for the placement and installation of a central aerosol evacuation system. This centralized system can be accessed and utilized from all patient rooms. With articulating arms installed from the ceiling, the purpose of this system is to catch aerosols before they are airborne by providing suction directly above patients.
BFD will be closed Thursday and Friday, in order for members of our team to enjoy time with their families. We hope everyone has a healthy and blessed Thanksgiving!
An Important Reminder for Patients:
If you have a scheduled appointment but are isolated due to covid or quarantined as a close contact, we respectfully ask that you please call our office at 574-936-8588 to reschedule.
