"I had an amazing experience coming in with very little notice to have my painful wisdom teeth examined. Everyone in the office was extremely kind and compassionate about my anxieties. Even over the phone, Melissa was so patient, kind, and informative. I have major dental anxiety and everyone in the office made me feel so safe. They also got me referred to some oral surgeons very quickly. I’m so thankful to have found this facility!"

The longer plaque and tartar are on teeth, the more harmful they become. The bacteria causes inflammation of the gums that is called “gingivitis.” When gingivitis is not treated, it can advance to “periodontitis”. If not treated, the bones, gums, and tissue that support the teeth are destroyed. The teeth may eventually become loose and have to be removed.

Floss tip of the week:
Flossing is more than just pulling a string between your teeth.
To floss properly, the floss should glide against both sides of each tooth, arching around the tooth to fit above the gum line. Each tooth should be flossed, not just those with particles. 👍

A new study indicates that "periodontitis may be a risk factor for COVID-19, and it may make patients vulnerable to severe complications." The researchers found that "people who had been diagnosed with COVID-19 and also had periodontitis were more than nine times likely to face severe complications than those who didn't have severe gum disease." The reason is that gum disease can be a sign of inflammation throughout the body.

It's National Dental Assistant Recognition Week and we wanted to say a big THANK YOU to our amazing dental assistant, Jo. Thank you so much for all your hard work! We so appreciate having you on our team.
3 things we want you to know:
🔹Flossing is important – it’s the only way to clean between your teeth
🔹You should get your teeth cleaned twice a year – everyone gets tartar buildup, which can only be removed by a professional dental cleaning.
🔹X-rays matter – x-rays are the only way for dentists to see between your teeth and assess the tooth’s root structure. It’s the best way to discover dental disease in its earliest stages, instead of waiting until you’re in pain or end up with costly repairs.
Now is not the time to ignore your oral health! Dental cleanings are still necessary. Pandemics don’t make dental diseases and cavities disappear. Keep your oral health in shape by scheduling your next cleaning and checkup today!
