"Highest Recommendation
Dr. Lakisha Arif-Holmes is simply amazing, and the absolute best in working with individuals who have disabilities!
I have taken my son, who has special needs to her for approximately a year and a half, and she is consistently patient, calm, and kind - not to mention her dental skills being top-notch. In today’s world, to have a dentist who takes the time to interact with families as if you are her.." says Gwen on Google

"I had canceled my appointment for my 6th month cleaning twice due to the
pandemic.
When I went to my appointment on Wednesday October 29th I was not sure I should go. When I arrived for my 5 pm appointment I was greeted
by the Doctor and the receptionist and they were very friendly.
Everyone had masks on and there was a glass shield in front of the
receptionist area.
I had my temperature taken and then taken back to my.." says Vincent on Google

Most tea's have caffeine that can be used in place of coffee! Coffee can be really damaging to the teeth but drinking green tea has been linked healthier gums and teeth! But make sure you don't go crazy on the sugar either, you wouldn't want any cavities! ☕️

Exercise is so important for maintaining physical and mental health! Sports are a way to have fun, be social, and stay fit! Contact sports seem to be a fan-favorite to participate in, but can also lead to serious and painful dental injuries! I can not stress the importance of mouth guards enough! If you participate in contact sports, just give the office a call and we can schedule you an appointment to start the process of making a perfect mouth guard for you!

This is how I'm celebrating National Tortilla Day Safely!
#happywednesday
It is National Tortilla Chip Day! I know it seems odd as to why this is a big deal but you would be shocked at the amount of health problems caused by these delicious snacks! We commonly see chip-caused soft tissue injuries such as gum abrasion, soft palate abrasion, broken teeth and even some punctures or slight tears! These tortilla chips are no joke and there are no shortage of "Tortilla chip Injuries." It is so important to thoroughly chew your food and take your time when eating these salty snacks!

March is National Nutrition Month! A balanced and nutritious diet is an essential factor into a healthy smile! Cheese, Milk, and Yogurt are some of the best foods for healthy teeth!

The month of March is Women's History Month! We are so honored to be an all-female dental office! We take this month to be proud and appreciate all the women who changed history for us all! Below is a link to a website that highlights some of the most influential women in dentistry!
https://dentallifeline.org/resources/10-women-in-dentistry-that-have-made-an-impact/
Did you know? Only 1.1% of dental students were female in 1968. That number dramatically increased to 47.7% in 2014.

March 23rd is American Diabetes Association Alert Day! Diabetes affects over 30 million people in the US alone. Diabetes is known as the silent killer because 9 million people have diabetes and have no idea! The disease progresses so fast that often times it's too late.
Regular dental visits are important in monitoring and preventing diabetes. Research suggests that treating gum disease can help improve blood sugar control in patients living with diabetes and can decrease the progression of diabetes. Practicing good oral hygiene and having professional deep cleanings done by your dentist can help to lower your HbA1c. ( A lab test that shows your average level of blood sugar over the previous three months.)
