Dental Plaque: This sticky film of bacteria forms on your teeth when mouth bacteria mix with foods containing sugar or starch. Dental plaque also has the ability to develop under the gums on your tooth roots, which can break down the bones that support your teeth. If you disregard this plaque, it can harden into tartar which is more difficult to remove. Learn more about dental plaque!
Germ-Free Toothbrush: Most of us only think about our toothbrushes the two (or more!) times per day that we go to pick them up, layer on that toothpaste, and start brushing. BUT, when we’re not giving them the love they deserve, they may be exposed to germs and bacteria unidentifiable by the common eye. This article provides some quick tips for how to keep your toothbrush germ-free.

The goal is to help make you more aware of what to expect before you even set foot in a dental office to ensure that you’re as comfortable as possible before arriving at your dental appointment.
Dental Implant Recovery Tips: Because a dental implant is designed to act like a prosthetic tooth, it replaces the tooth all the way down to the root itself. Not only is a dental implant a cost-effective & functional solution, but it also helps to restore your mouth’s natural functions, including blood flow and bone stimulation. This post provides helpful tips to help you recover efficiently after a dental implant surgery.

Healthy Gums: It’s important that we keep an eye on the part of the mouth that protects our teeth: the gums. But, how do we know if we have healthy gums? Are they pink and firm? Our gums surround and support our teeth as well as the bones of our jaws and are, essentially, barriers against oral infection. This post focuses on four tips that can help us achieve healthy gums!
