Everyone knows that your oral health starts with clean teeth. Brush your teeth at least twice a day. It needs to be a thorough job, so take your time and don't rush. Keeping your teeth clean will help fight off gum disease and those annoying cavities.

Grinding and clenching your teeth not only contributes to jaw and facial pain, but it can also wear away tooth structure to increase your risk of cavities, sensitivity, and fractured teeth. | richardviagrandedmd.com
Need one more reason for a checkup? Some of the earliest signs of medical conditions show up in the oral cavity—sometimes long before you're even aware anything is wrong. | richardviagrandedmd.com
Ancient Greek philosophers Aristotle and Hippocrates wrote about dentistry in their journals. They observed the growth of teeth from gums, the treatment of decaying teeth, and even the use of wires to realign teeth and stabilize jaws much like today.

Missing teeth can do more than create unsightly gaps in your smile. They can make it more difficult to speak and chew as well as age the appearance of your face. | richardviagrandedmd.com

Thirsty? Enjoy a glass of water! In addition to the importance of staying hydrated, water helps to keep your smile healthy and bright! | richardviagrandedmd.com
Because normal saliva production is so important to the health of the gums and teeth, it is important to talk with your dentist if you are currently taking medication that reduces saliva production or contributes to dry mouth.

Hahaha! Let us know if you agree!
Yes it's true! Scientists have discovered a sweet-tooth gene! People with a variant of the FGF21 gene tend to crave and consume more sugar on average than those with the normal form of the gene | richardviagrandedmd.com
Talk about multi-tasking: in the middle ages, dentistry was commonly done by barbers and blacksmiths, who often performed complicated surgeries with nothing more than the tools they had on hand. It wasn't until 1840 when the first school to teach exclusively dentistry was opened in Baltimore, Maryland.
#dentists #viagrande&katz
If you want the whitest teeth possible, consider the things you eat and drink. Dark liquids like red wine, black tea, and coffee will stain teeth, as will dark fruits and gravies. Smoking cigarettes or cigars will also contribute to yellowed teeth.
#dentists #viagrande&katz
Your smile is a window to your overall well-being. In addition to oral health issues, evidence of other medical conditions, eating disorders, harmful habits, and nutritional deficiencies can also be found in the mouth.
Ours is a country filled with promise for tomorrow — because ours is a history shaped by heroes like you. Thank you to all our brave Veterans.
Your biggest ally in the fight against tooth decay is unquestionably your own saliva. A steady flow of saliva through the mouthwashes away bacteria keeps food from sticking to the surface of the teeth and neutralizes acids that would otherwise eat away at the enamel.

Check out this 5 star Google My Business review by Frank Ward:
Dr. Viagrande has been my dentist for over 20 years and there is a reason for that. Going to see a dentist was my biggest fear, until I met Dr. V. He not only corrected all the subpar work the previous dentists did, but corrected the many problems I've come to have since.
He is professional, thorough, and an overall nice guy who will be there for you when emergencies happen. The staff there are also unbelievably down to earth and professional as well... Thanks again Dr. V, Maddie, Terry, and the rest of the office staff. A great team !!

If the pleasure of eating a delicious bowl of ice cream or sipping a soothing cup of tea is overshadowed by a sharp twinge, it's time to see the dentist! | richardviagrandedmd.com
If you think human teeth are time-consuming to take care of, just be glad you're not an animal whose teeth never stop growing, such as a beaver, a rat, or a horse. These animals have to continuously gnaw or chew on things to keep their teeth trimmed down to a manageable level.

What's tougher than bones? With 96% mineral content, your teeth are the strongest tissue in the body. | richardviagrandedmd.com
The average human has 32 adult teeth (this includes 4 wisdom teeth). We look like slouches compared to many members of the animal kingdom, though. Crocodiles have 66 teeth, armadillos can have 100 teeth, and many sharks have over 300 teeth.

The tooth fairy is just as susceptible to inflation as the rest of the economy. American children now receive an average of $3.00 under their pillows for each tooth. This is up from $2.10 in 2011, and way up from the average nickel or dime in the 1950s.

Although rumors persist that George Washington's teeth were made out of wood, the truth is even weirder. By the time he took office in 1789, he had only one real tooth left. His dentist fashioned dentures from hippopotamus ivory and human teeth held together by gold wire and springs.

If you have sore teeth, jaw pain, and a headache in the morning, it may be a sign that you are grinding your teeth at night. A custom dental night guard can help! | richardviagrandedmd.com
Before toothpaste was invented, people did some pretty strange things to keep their mouths clean. In the first century AD, people sometimes wore bones of small animals to ward off toothaches, and they also liked to use mouthwashes made from pure wine.

While tongue piercings have become quite popular, we recommend avoiding this type of cosmetic procedure. Not only can tongue piercings interfere with normal chewing and swallowing, but jewelry in the tongue can chip and fracture teeth through repeated impact. #dentists #piercings #oralhealth
It's important to remember that advances in dentistry mean that losing a tooth doesn't have to impact your smile or ability to eat. In most cases, we can use a permanent implant that won't change your way of life. #dentists #implants

Dentistry has certainly come a long way! During the Middle Ages, you went to your barber for a haircut and your dental treatment. | richardviagrandedmd.com
Dentists recommend a soft-bristled toothbrush that fits your mouth comfortably. Regular toothbrushes work fine, but electric toothbrushes can reduce the buildup of plaque and the development of gum disease. Toothpastes with fluoride are also recommended.
While already linked to lung problems, new research shows that a few months of vaping might also trigger gum disease. | richardviagrandedmd.com https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2020-05-27/vaping-could-put-you-at-risk-for-gum-disease
