“The Hidden Problem”

Lip and tongue ties are one of the most overlooked (and sometimes misunderstood) conditions in dentistry and medicine. 👀

Some providers say they’re overdiagnosed. Others say they’re underdiagnosed.

But here’s the truth — a proper evaluation can make all the difference in feeding, speech, airway, and development.

In our latest blog, we break down the facts, the controversy, and what you really need to know about diagnosis and treatment.

A little throwback to a magical morning 🌅🌈

Last week, we were treated to a breathtaking sunrise and a rainbow right over our office sign — a moment too beautiful not to share.

Big thanks to our wonderful assistant Tanna for capturing this stunning photo and saving it for us to enjoy. Just had to share it with everyone today! 📸✨

✨ October is Dental Hygiene Month — and we couldn’t let it pass without celebrating our totally awesome hygienist, Kelly! 🦷💐

Kelly keeps our patients smiling bright with her gentle touch, clinical excellence, and genuine care for everyone who sits in her chair.

We’re so grateful for the energy, kindness, and professionalism she brings to our team every single day.

✨ Lateral Diastema Closure for Peg Lateral Teeth ✨

We’re so grateful to our wonderful patient for allowing us to share this beautiful transformation! 💙

Peg lateral teeth can sometimes leave small spaces (diastemas) that affect the smile’s balance — but with careful planning and artistry, we achieved a seamless, natural result that blends perfectly with the surrounding teeth.

It’s always so rewarding to see our patients’ confidence shine through their new smiles! 😁

🦷✨ Ever wonder who actually owns your dental office? Spoiler: it’s not always who you think… 👀

We dove into some surprising truths — from corporate “dental service organizations” to dentists being sidelined by profits — and shared how Med City Dental is doing things differently (locally owned, no hidden investors, just smiles with integrity).

Curious? Dive in and see who REALLY owns the place where you get your smile polished:

🎉🎂 Happy Birthday to the Heart of Our Office! 🎂🎉

This weekend had a very special day! We are celebrating the one who keeps our schedules running, our patients smiling, and our team laughing — our amazing Office Manager, Angela! 🦷💼✨

From juggling appointments to making sure everything runs smoother than a freshly polished smile, you truly keep this place shining brighter than a whitening treatment! 😁💙

We’re so lucky to have someone as organized, kind, and downright awesome as you on our team. Here's to another year of laughter, caffeine, and maybe a little less paperwork (we can dream, right?) 🎈🥳

🦷 Do You Snore or Struggle with Poor Sleep? It Might Be More Than Just Snoring. 😴

At Med City Dental we’re proud to offer Dental Sleep-Disordered Breathing (SDB) Screening and Treatment to help you breathe better, sleep deeper, and live healthier.

SDB can affect both children and adults — and it often goes undiagnosed. Common signs include:
✅ Loud snoring
✅ Restless sleep
✅ Morning headaches
✅ Dry mouth or sore throat upon waking
✅ Daytime fatigue or difficulty concentrating

Our team uses non-invasive screening tools and custom oral appliance therapy to help manage and treat mild to moderate sleep apnea and other sleep-related breathing issues.

📅 Schedule your sleep screening today — your body (and your bed partner!) will thank you.
☎️ Call us at 507-289-8707 or visit www.MedCityDental.com to learn more.

Today, all of us at Med City Dental pause to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

We pay tribute to the heroes, first responders, and everyday people whose courage and compassion shined on one of the darkest days in our nation's history. 🕊️

Let us never forget the strength, unity, and resilience that brought us together — and continues to inspire us today.

❤️ We remember. We honor. We stand united.

✨🍭 Fairy Floss & Fun Facts with Dr. Funke 🍭✨

Dr. Funke may be a dentist… but even he couldn’t resist letting his daughter enjoy some fluffy, magical fairy floss (that’s “cotton candy” for us here in the States) at the State Fair!

Here’s the sweet twist: Cotton candy was actually invented by a dentist in 1897. Yep—Dr. William Morrison co-created the sugary treat as a fun way for his patients to enjoy something sweet. It was even originally called “Fairy Floss.”

So while we don’t recommend making cotton candy your daily snack (Dr. Funke is still a dentist after all 😉), we’re all for enjoying a little sweetness on special occasions.

After all… life’s too short not to chase a little sugar cloud every now and then. 💗
