Sensitive Teeth in Winter: Tips for Cold Weather Comfort

Does that first breath of crisp winter air make you wince? Do hot coffee or icy winds trigger sharp pain in your teeth? You’re not alone! Winter tooth sensitivity is a common complaint in our chilly
Lower Mainland winters.

Why does it happen now?

Cold air causes the fluid in tiny dentin tubules (microscopic channels in your teeth) to contract rapidly, stimulating nerves and creating that stabbing pain. Common causes also include tooth decay creating cavities, gum recession exposing the sensitive tooth roots, and erosion from frequent consumption of sugary and acidic foods or drinks. Furthermore, if you grind your teeth (bruxism), this can wear down your enamel, exacerbating the pain.

Simple ways to minimize winter sensitivity:

🦷 Switch to a soft-bristled toothbrush and desensitizing toothpaste (look for potassium nitrate or stannous fluoride)
🦷 Avoid very hot or cold foods/drinks back-to-back
🦷 Use a mouthguard if you grind at night
🦷 Rinse with warm salt water and stay hydrated
🦷 Limit acidic foods like citrus and wine

At My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock, our caring family dentists offer fast, effective relief: professional desensitizing treatments, fluoride varnishes, custom night guards, and gentle gum care to protect exposed roots.

Don’t suffer through another winter! Contact us today for your sensitive teeth consultation. Warm smiles start here!

Snoring Ruining Your Sleep? Fix It with Help From Your South Surrey Dentist!

If snoring keeps you or your partner awake, disrupts sleep, and leaves you exhausted all day, you're not alone. Did you know snoring often stems from oral health problems?

Snoring happens when airflow is obstructed during sleep, frequently caused by issues like a narrow airway, enlarged tonsils, or poor jaw alignment. Common culprits include misaligned teeth, tongue position problems, or even untreated sleep apnea linked to dental structure. Excess tissue vibration from these oral factors creates that loud, disruptive noise, worsening fatigue, headaches, and strained relationships.

At My Dentist at Morgan Creek, our experienced family dentists specialize in identifying and treating snoring's root causes. We offer oral appliances, like custom-fitted Dental Oral Appliances (DOAs), that gently reposition your jaw and tongue to keep airways open, reducing or eliminating snoring without invasive surgery. These comfortable, non-invasive solutions are tailored to your needs, improving sleep quality for the whole family.

Don't let snoring steal another peaceful night - book your dental appointment today at My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock! We're conveniently located in South Surrey opposite Fire Service Hall 17 on 32nd Avenue. Since 2001, we have been serving patients in the South Surrey / White Rock area, including North Grandview Heights, Morgan Heights, and Sunnyside.

Pregnancy and Dental Care: Safe Treatments

Expectant mothers often grapple with anxiety about dental care, worrying if procedures are truly safe for their baby, alongside managing hormonal changes that increase the risk of conditions like pregnancy gingivitis.

Dental Implants: Why the "Cost" is Really a Long-Term Gain

Are you tired of embarrassing slipping dentures or ill-fitting bridges? Missing teeth lead to rapid jawbone deterioration (up to 25% loss in the first year), causing facial sagging and premature aging.

Dental implants are the superior, permanent solution. These small titanium posts replace the tooth root, anchoring securely into the jawbone. Unlike removable options, implants stimulate the bone, actively preventing jawbone loss. They feel and function like natural teeth, require only normal brushing and flossing, and provide guaranteed stability.

While the initial cost may seem high, implants are a long-term investment. They can last a lifetime with proper care, making them highly cost-effective compared to the recurring costs of adhesives and frequent replacement/repairs required by dentures or bridges (every 5 to 15 years). We offer flexible financing and provide a clear, detailed estimate in writing. Our South Surrey / White Rock family dental clinic uses advanced technology like guided implant surgery and 3D printing for precise results.

At My Dentist at Morgan Creek, we provide a range of implant dentistry services, such as full arch replacement with implant-supported dentures and implant-supported bridges, single and mini dental implants.

Protect Your Recovery: Foods That Help (and Hurt) After Dental Work

Recovering from dental work, whether it’s a filling, root canal, or extraction, requires careful attention to your diet to ensure quick and comfortable healing. Choosing the right foods is crucial to protect your mouth and any new restorations.

Immediately following a dental procedure, especially if your mouth is still numb, you should strictly avoid anything that needs chewing or drinking anything hot. This prevents accidentally biting down too hard or burning your mouth.

Focus on soft foods at room temperature. Great choices include creamy dairy products like plain yogurt, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, and smoothies which are generally good for enamel health. Be sure to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated - avoid alcohol or caffeine.

As you recover, you must avoid foods that are detrimental to the treatment site or any existing dental work. Avoid anything that is hard or crunchy, or overly sticky, such as caramel or popcorn, as these can cause damage to teeth or restorations. Also, limit highly acidic foods or drinks like citrus fruits, soda, or wine, which can aggravate sensitivity or decay. Take care with foods that may contain hard pieces like bones, seeds, pits, or shells.

At My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock, your comfort and oral health are our top priorities. Book your next dental appointment with us today!

Why Your Gums Bleed When You Floss (And What To Do)

Seeing blood when flossing can be alarming but often signals a need for better oral hygiene. Bleeding gums are a primary sign of gingivitis which is gum inflammation caused by plaque buildup. Unfortunately, unaddressed gum disease is linked to broader health issues, including heart disease or complications with diabetes.

Here are 5 important reasons your gums may bleed:

1⃣ Plaque and Gingivitis: Plaque buildup causes inflammation, leading to redness, swelling, and bleeding.
2⃣ Inconsistent Flossing: Flossing removes plaque where brushing can't reach, preventing disease.
3⃣ Improper Technique: Avoid snapping or forcing the floss and use a gentle, C-shaped motion, curving the floss around each tooth.
4⃣ Hormonal Changes: Conditions like pregnancy can increase susceptibility to gingivitis.
5⃣ Medication Side Effects: Certain medications may list bleeding gums as a potential side effect.

🦷️ Please note that if you’ve just started flossing, your gums may bleed until they become healthier (usually stops within 1-2 weeks).

If bleeding persists after a week of consistent, gentle flossing, it's crucial to have your gums professionally examined. Book your dental check-up at My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock today! We offer professional cleanings and examinations essential for healthy gums.

5 Signs Your Old Fillings Need Replacement

Are you concerned about your old dental fillings? It's a common worry, as fillings, like anything else, can wear down over time. Regular checkups are key to monitoring existing fillings for signs of wear before they become a bigger problem.

Paying attention to your teeth can help you spot issues early. Here are five important signs that your old fillings may need replacement:

1⃣ You can see visible chips, cracks, or holes in the filling.
2⃣ You experience a constant dull ache, a sharp pain when biting down, or a toothache that lasts more than two days.
3⃣ The tooth with the filling becomes sensitive to hot, cold, or pressure.
4⃣ The filling feels loose, or you notice it has fallen out completely.
5⃣ You notice dark spots on or around the filling, which could indicate new decay.

If you notice any of these signs, don't wait for the pain to get worse. Delaying treatment can lead to more extensive and costly procedures like root canals or crowns.

At My Dentist at Morgan Creek, we offer modern, durable replacement options, including tooth-coloured composite (white) fillings and long-lasting dental crowns. For more extensive restorations, we use advanced technology like CEREC® to create high-quality crowns in a single appointment.

Don't ignore the warning signs. Book your dental check-up today at My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock and let us ensure your smile stays healthy and strong!

Flossing Properly: Quick Tips from Our Hygienists

Are you skipping the floss in your daily routine? Many people do, but neglecting this crucial step can lead to plaque buildup in hard-to-reach places, causing cavities, gum inflammation, and bad breath if left untreated.

Flossing is an essential part of your oral hygiene routine because it removes plaque and food particles that get stuck between your teeth, where a toothbrush can't reach. This simple daily habit helps prevent tooth decay, stimulates your gums, reduces inflammation, and prevents gum disease. A healthy mouth also contributes to your overall well-being, as poor dental hygiene is linked to various systemic health issues.

Our hygienists at our South Surrey dental clinic recommend these tips for effective flossing:

🦷️ Use about 18 inches (46 cm) of dental floss and wrap most of it around your middle fingers, leaving about an inch to work with.
🦷️ Gently slide the floss between your teeth using a back-and-forth motion.
🦷️ Curve the floss around the base of each tooth, making sure to go below the gum line.
🦷️ Use a clean section of floss for each tooth to avoid spreading bacteria.
🦷️ Floss at least once a day, preferably at night before brushing your teeth.

Ready to take the next step toward a healthier smile and improve your oral hygiene? Book your dental check-up at My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey / White Rock today and let our dedicated team provide the personalized, gentle care you deserve.
