Now is the Time to Visit Your Dentist
With so many routine outings placed on hold during the pandemic, it might seem like the dentist is just another place to avoid until things are back to “normal.” A recent survey of dentists conducted by the American Dental Association Health Policy Institute shows that many patients are experiencing an increase in a variety of oral health issues due to COVID-19 stress, including chipped or cracked teeth, teeth grinding, jaw pain, as well as tooth decay and gum disease. The longer a dental concern is ignored, the more likely it will continue to develop into chronic pain or oral disease.
Dental offices are one of the safest places to go during the COVID-19 pandemic, as dentists have been combatting infectious diseases for decades and have implemented extra safety measures during the pandemic. Thanks to these extra infection control precautions, there has been no evidence of COVID-19 transmission in a dental office.
“Infection control is nothing new to dental offices,” said Dr. Nathan Hehr, president of the Iowa Dental Association and practicing partner of Nettleton Dental Group in Mason City. “Requirements released by the Iowa Dental Board in light of the pandemic reinforce the standards dental offices are already accustomed to, with the addition of stricter requirements that allow for safe practicing amidst a disease that is largely unknown. Patients are actually safer at the dental office than the grocery store.”
Further, a recent study conducted by the University of Iowa College of Dentistry found that even in dental procedures where a lot of aerosol is generated, the amount of aerosol particles that spread to other areas of the office or remain in the office are very low. With the mitigation efforts dental offices have in place to prevent against aerosol spread, there is no reason to be more concerned visiting the dentist than any other location you may already be frequenting.
In fact, millions of patients nationally have already returned safely to their dentist for a full range of dental services. With no evidence of COVID-19 transmission in dental offices and alarming evidence of an increase in untreated dental issues, it is better for your overall health to schedule a dental appointment and get back to the dentist for routine care. Check in with a friend or family member who has seen the dentist to help alleviate any lingering concerns. Of course, you can always contact your dentist, and they will likely be more than happy to explain everything they are doing to keep you safe, and, most importantly, healthy.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas! 🎄💚🎅🏼
Merry Christmas Eve Eve! 🎄
Which one are you?
Happy New Year! 🎉
Bring on 2021!
If you are in our office today be sure to wish Dr. Stephanie a happy birthday! Hope it is a fabulous day!

Happy birthday to one of our fabulous assistants, Cathy!!

Happy National Children's Dental Health Month!
National Children’s Dental Health Month is held every February as a month-long national health observance that brings together thousands of dedicated professionals, health care providers and educators to promote the benefits of good oral health to children, their caregivers, teachers and many others.
Many of us take for granted the benefits of taking good care of our teeth however it is important that we inform children and reinforce the message regularly.
The slogan for 2021 is "Water: Nature's Drink."
Keep your children hydrated! It is best to avoid sugary drinks and stick to good old-fashioned water. Water helps to rinse away any sugar or particles that can lead to cavities. Many municipal water sources also contain fluoride, which is recommended by the American Dental Association as an efficient way to prevent tooth decay.
February 9th is National Toothache Day!
A toothache can be miserable, making it difficult to eat, sleep, or sometimes even talk. It’s safe to say, toothaches are never pleasant and not really something to celebrate.
Routine dental care is an essential first step in the prevention of a toothache. Avoiding sugary foods and acidic drinks and daily brushing and flossing are important, too. Even so, we can still develop cavities, have accidents that break or chip at a tooth, or find ourselves with an infection. Teeth can also become sensitive to heat or cold. If you find yourself having a toothache, contact your dental office right away!
Help us in wishing Kim a happy work anniversary! 36 years Kim has been apart of our team! 🎉
