The dynamic duo supporting real men wear pink and more importantly, Breast Cancer Awareness Month!
October reminds us of how far we have yet to go in the fight against breast cancer. Other than skin cancer, it is the most common cancer among American women. The best way for early detection and intervention is via mammograms, which can detect before it is big enough to feel or cause symptoms.
We encourage our dental family and friends to raise awareness about the importance of yearly checkups!

The American Society of Breast Surgeons recommend a mammogram every year starting at age 40 for normal risk women, and at age 30 for high risk women. Consult with your doctor to see if you should be screened earlier. Happy Friday! 💝

Another FAQ Friday! “Is charcoal toothpaste safe to use instead of regular toothpaste and does it whiten teeth?”

The main ingredient — activated charcoal — is made up of oxidized substances like wood, coconut shells and bamboo. It is very porous and works well to remove toxins BUT, for teeth:

- it is very abrasive and may actually do more harm than good in abrading the whiter, harder protective outer enamel layer of your teeth

- it may increase sensitivity as such

- most do not contain fluoride, a main ingredient that makes teeth more resistant against cavities

- can actually increase staining around existing fillings, crowns, veneers, and near the gum line

Mystery solved! Some trends are meant to be kept out of the mouth 🙂🪥

Happy Friday! Closing out another great week with a FAQ - Frequently Asked Question.

How often should I be going to the dentist?

The answer is: it depends!
While twice a year is a good rule of thumb, it varies on your oral hygiene, habits and individual medical conditions. Who should be going to the dentist more often?
-Pregnant women
-Smokers
-DIABETICS
-People with gum disease
-People with a weak immune response
-People who are prone to cavities or plaque build-up
Even if you brush twice a day and floss daily, we are trained to check and catch problems that you might not see or feel on your own.
And what can you do to minimize your dental appointments? Good ORAL HYGIENE!

Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
A great reminder as many of us hit the beaches this weekend to protect yourselves, your skin and your lips with SPF. The only thing that should be grilling is a BBQ! 😊 🇺🇸 💥

It’s an type of day!

Summer is here and that means our mouthguard nights are back! We had such a wonderful time getting to conduct oral screenings and make impressions for mouthguards on our Panther football players! Getting them screened & ready to hit the ground running for the season! 🏈 🦷 🐆

Let’s talk about X-rays!
Ever wondered why your draped in a lead apron and everyone in the room steps out like they’re fleeing the plague? It’s normal to have some concerns.

Your dental team steps away because of the risk of g r a d u a l exposure that accumulates DAILY throughout their career. Otherwise, dental x-rays today are extremely safe.

Today’s digital x-rays, like these “4 check-up bitewings and 2 anterior PAs” have less than the average daily dose of radiation in everyday life. These images are taken yearly to check for cavities hiding between teeth and any apical/root pathology (red circles⭕️).

❌A cross-country flight exposes each passenger to more radiation than a full mouth series of radiographs (20 dental x-rays).

❌A walk to your car in the sun has more radiation exposure than 1 small x-ray.

This trade off helps dentists to perform proper diagnoses, preventive care and avoid more aggressive therapies later down the road. ☠️
