Keeping your teeth clean, smooth and beautiful... Proper oral hygiene is your key to a healthy, beautiful smile. Here are our and the American Dental Association's recommendations for at home care:
Brush 2-3 times every day with a fluoride toothpaste (it doesn't matter which brand)
Floss once a day
Eat a healthy diet (fruits, vegetables, etc)
Limit consumption of sugary foods and beverages. Soda drinks can destroy teeth faster than almost anything else
Eliminate or at least limit use of alcohol, chewing tabacco, and cigarettes
We also recommend using an electric high-speed toothbrush in conjunction with a waterpik for your daily at-home oral care. And don't forget six-month professional cleanings and checkups. The American Dental Association recommends checkups every six months for those ages four and older. Professional cleanings by qualified hygienists will remove bacteria and plaque, which can cause serious dental problems if not kept in check.

A root canal can rescue a tooth that has impaired or infected roots. It is critical to keep your teeth intact and avoid extraction whenever possible. In the past, root canals gained a reputation for being painful. But with modern advancements and anesthetics, they are now treatable with almost no pain. During the process, the pulp chamber of the tooth is removed and replaced with a specific type of filling compound. Sometimes a crown will be added to provide more strength to the remaining tooth structure. We are well versed in root canal therapy and saving a tooth from extraction.

In other words, you're going to need some help. Call our office today to schedule your next routine teeth cleaning to receive help with your plaque removal!
