Did you know the leading cause of disease in children is tooth decay? No parent wants their child to struggle with dental problems — and the good news is, there are simple ways to help protect their teeth from the inside out.

Yes, brushing and flossing matter… but remineralization is the real game-changer.
Using hydroxyapatite-based products helps strengthen and rebuild enamel naturally.

Here’s what we recommend for kids:

🦷 Remineralizing Toothpaste & Tooth Powder (hydroxyapatite)
🦷 Remineralizing Mouthrinse
🌞 Children’s Vitamin D to help their bodies actually absorb minerals
💪 Children’s Tooth & Bone Chewables — kids love them
🌱 Humic & Fulvic Acid to support whole-body mineral balance

Most products are available in our office or online at livingwellwithdrmichelle.com.

👋 Hi, this is Dr. Chris Bates from Total Care Dental & Wellness! 🦷💚

Did you know your mouth is the gateway to your whole body? Poor oral health has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, sleep apnea, and gut issues! Inflammation and infection in your mouth can spread and affect your overall health — but the good news is, you can take control. 🌿

At Total Care Dental, we take a holistic approach — from biocompatible fillings and safe mercury removal to airway and sleep solutions — because your teeth, gums, and body are all connected.

When your mouth is healthy, your whole body is healthier. 💪
Take the first step toward total wellness today — it all starts with your smile! 😁

Did you know you can have a severe dental abscess without ever feeling a toothache? 🦷 CT scans often reveal hidden infections that routine exams can miss. Crowns, while sometimes necessary, can traumatize a tooth over time and even cause it to die silently.

Research shows chronic oral infections are linked to systemic inflammation and conditions like arthritis and cardiovascular disease (PubMed: oral infections and systemic inflammation). That’s why regular scans and holistic dental care matter — your mouth and body are deeply connected. 💚

She came in thinking it was “just a tooth,” but underneath, bacteria had eaten a quarter-sized hole in her jawbone—something no standard X-ray could have shown.

That’s why every day, I rely on CBCT imaging, which lets me slice through the tooth and jaw in 3D for the clearest picture of hidden infections.

Left untreated, these silent abscesses can push bacteria into your bloodstream and fuel inflammation throughout your body—an invisible danger many women never suspect.

It’s not just about your smile; it’s about safeguarding your whole-body wellness.

Your gums don’t lie — they show when it’s been too long since your last cleaning.

Plaque that hardens into tartar needs a professional to remove, but the good news? You can slow it down at home. Daily brushing with Dr. Michelle’s remineralizing tooth powder helps keep teeth strong, gums happy, and bacteria at bay — so those 6-month visits are smoother and your whole body benefits!

I get so many questions about braces — metal vs. plastic, microplastics vs. metals, which one is safer, which lasts longer.

But here’s the thing: whichever option you choose, the most important piece is usually the one nobody talks about.

Straight teeth don’t stay straight just because you had braces or Invisalign. They stay straight because the teeth, the jawbone, and even the muscles around them are healthy and strong.

That means nourishing the body with key nutrients like vitamin D3 and K2, supporting the jaw and facial muscles with myofunctional therapy, and making sure your child’s mouth is developing properly.

So yes, braces can absolutely give you that beautiful smile — but if you don’t address the why behind crooked teeth in the first place, they’ll just keep shifting back.

💙 My goal as a holistic dentist is to help families understand that orthodontics isn’t just about straight teeth, it’s about creating a foundation that keeps them straight for life.

💧✨ Hi, I’m Dr. Alexa McAneney — but everyone calls me Dr. Mac! At Total Care Dental & Wellness, we love using ozone therapy because it’s a safe, natural, and powerful way to support your oral and overall health. 🌿🦷

Ozone helps eliminate harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi — all without harming healthy tissue. 🙌 It can:
🪥 Treat cavities early
🔥 Reduce inflammation
💨 Speed up healing after dental procedures

That means less invasive treatments, more comfort, and faster recovery for you — all while helping your body do what it does best: heal naturally. 💚

Ozone therapy is just one of the many ways we provide gentle, whole-body dental care that helps you keep a healthy, radiant smile for life! 😁🌈

Did you know most modern dentistry isn’t built to heal you — it’s built to manage symptoms?
❌ Fluoride doesn’t fix the root cause of cavities
❌ Mercury fillings can leak toxins
❌ Root canals often leave hidden infections

✨ True healing begins when you support your body naturally — by remineralizing with the right nutrients and understanding the powerful connection between your mouth and your whole body.

This is holistic dentistry. This is what every patient deserves. 💙

👋 Hi, I’m Dr. Thometz—though you can call me Dr. T! I’m new at Total Care Dental, and I’m so excited to be caring for your kiddos. As a mom of two little boys (a 2-year-old and a 6-month-old), pediatric oral health is incredibly important to me. 💙

I know how it feels to sit in the doctor’s office, worried about your child, wanting a plan in action, and hoping someone really listens. That’s why I love Total Care Dental and Total Care Kids—we focus on prevention and catching issues early, so your kids can thrive without struggle.

For example, my own son was born with a cleft palate. From the start, I was exploring ways to help him function better—his tongue posture, his sleep, his breathing, and even crowded teeth. Early intervention through therapies like myofunctional therapy and palate expansion has made a huge difference, and that’s exactly the kind of care we provide for every child here.

Our goal is simple: help your kids sleep better, breathe better, and live healthier lives, while supporting parents every step of the way.
