Watch the video below to see the safety procedures we've added during Covid-19.
Wednesday Wisdom: Kids laugh roughly 400 times a day. The average adult laughs only 15 times per day. Don’t hide those pearly whites. Bring out the kid in you and find reasons to smile today.
You should replace toothbrushes every 3 to 4 months, and/or after an illness. When in doubt, look at the bristles for fraying. For powered models, change the brush head on the same schedule.
Powered or manual, which is better? Studies show that powered brushes have a slight edge at cleaning away plaque.
Researchers at the independent Cochrane Collaboration looked at 56 clinical trials of unsupervised tooth brushing by more than 5,000 adults and children and found that subjects who used a powered toothbrush showed an 11 percent reduction in plaque at one to three months, and a 21 percent reduction after three months or more, compared with those who used manual toothbrushes.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if it is powered or manual if you don’t use it, at least twice a day.
Thinking of skipping the dentist? Think again! Your checkup is critical to your health. Regular appointments can be tooth AND life-saving. Only your dentist can catch and treat gum disease, check your mouth for life-threatening oral cancers, and remove harmful bacteria before it travels through your bloodstream. We are going above and beyond with safety precautions during this time, and have your health top of mind. Be sure to call us to schedule your cleaning and check-up today!
We know that you are brushing your teeth at least twice a day.
But if you stopped, you would encounter more than plaque and tartar build-up (and bad breath). More serious problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss are likely if you skip teeth brushing.
Give it two minutes, twice a day, every day for a healthy smile.

HAPPY NATIONAL DENTAL HYGIENE MONTH!!
Help us wish our amazing hygienists Suzanne Carmichael and Brooke Thomas Reasoner a fun and healthy ending to the month of celebrating dental hygiene! They take great care of each and every one of our patients and take an interest not only in the patient’s dental health, but also in their personal lives! COVID 19 has changed a lot in their day to day routine, but the friendly face beneath all of that PPE and the loving heart that they put into their work remains the same. We appreciate you both and are proud to call you family at Garcia Family Dental!
Thanks for all that you do!! ❤️❤️
