It’s an alarming moment when you see one of your front teeth has broken 😨
No worries! This patient’s smile was restored using composite. You wouldn’t know anything had happened 😁
Fall Fruits and Vegetables to Load Up On
🎃 Pumpkin is packed with nutrients that are important for good oral health. Some of these include magnesium, zinc, along with vitamins A and C. And don’t forget to save the seeds! Pumpkin seeds are loaded with calcium, iron, phosphorus, fiber and protein. Please don’t crack them with your teeth. This could damage your teeth 😁
🍎 Apples are loaded with fiber. Their crunchy texture encourages saliva production. Saliva serves an important role in your dental wellness, due to ability to neutralize bacteria in your mouth.
🥬 Spinach and Kale contains plenty of iron and other vitamins essential to good dental and physical health.
🥕 Carrots not only have the crunch benefits of apples but they are packed with important vitamins!
Yummmm 😋
And the Frei $50 Gift Certificates go to....???? 🌽🥬🍑🍎🥕

Pretty Smiles Don’t Mean They Are Healthy 😁🦠😳
Speaking of cosmetic dentistry, let’s address the elephant in the room 🐘—many people get the impression that if their smile looks good that it is healthy. Unfortunately, that isn’t always the case.
While yellowing teeth or stains on the teeth can help indicate that there is at least an issue with brushing, that doesn’t mean that the teeth are inherently unhealthy. On the flip side, having a pearly white, even smile can still hide cavities, especially if they form in the back molars or between teeth.
So, if you want to keep your beautiful smile healthy, it is essential that you come in for a dental cleaning 🧑⚕️ every six months.
🍁🌾It’s officially FALL!!!! The best way to celebrate is with a GIVEAWAY!🍁🌾

Dentists Do More Than Just Look For Cavities 🦷
It can be easy to think that all dentists do is look for cavities. Whether you need advanced tooth repair due to tooth decay or you want to address issues you see in your smile, our dentists can help.
That’s not to say that addressing fundamental problems like cavities aren’t important. For instance, if you are interested in cosmetic dental work, you will need a healthy smile to build on.
Amazing Before & After! 🤩
How did we do it? With a full set of upper crowns.😁
Our patient’s beautiful smile looks natural and bright!
Teeth/jaw pain, accidents and broken teeth happen....So what do you do?!
If you have a dental problem that requires emergency treatment, please call the office so that we may see you immediately. In or out of office hours.
Keep Calm and Don’t Suffer. We are here for you!

🤤What Does Saliva Do For Your Mouth?
Saliva is an integral part of a healthy mouth because it keeps your mouth moist and comfortable. 😋
🍔Saliva helps you chew your food, taste its flavor, and swallow it.
Saliva can help to prevent bad breath (halitosis) by fighting germs living in your mouth. 🥴
Saliva contains minerals that help prevent tooth decay.

I went in for a deep clean. When Laura numbed me she went slow and it did not hurt. When she got done she did another X-ray to make sure she got it all. She was very gentle. I would highly recommend.
I have went to riverside now for three cavities and two cleanings. They all went very smooth.

Dentist Tip 💡
The sooner your child starts to visit with our dentists, the less likely they will struggle with anxiety around the appointment. 😬Since the regular visits can help demystify the process, your child can also get used to having our dental hygienist and our dentists check-in their mouths.
Children should have their first dental visit six months after their first tooth erupts or by their first birthday, whichever one comes first. That way, not only can your child become accustomed to going to the dentist, but our dentists can also track your child’s tooth development. 📋
