CURRENTLY UNDER RECONSTRUCTION 
Find out how to take care of your teeth and
other dental related information!
There's no secret to having good teeth and gums. All one has to do is properly brush and floss every day. Your dental hygienist can show you how. So what's your excuse? Here's a motivational image for you!
With adults, the story is somewhat different. Most of
us over the age of 35 have a mouth full of fillings
and other restorations that will eventually need
periodic replacement. Yes, those
amalgam and composite (white) fillings
will not last a lifetime! Sort of like tires...LOL
However, gold restorations, if you keep the tooth
structure around them clean CAN last a lifetime!
Gum (periodontal) disease is so common in adults that it is the #1 reason that older adults ever have a tooth removed! Take this quiz to see if you might have a problem with your gums!
So now you may want to see a dentist, huh? Do you hate this sound? Do you feel like this picture when you are at the dentist? Click on the chicken to hear yourself......!!
Well, it doesn't have to be that way. You just need to find the right dental office.Ask all your friends and family if they enjoy going to their dentist. If you hear really good comments like these.........
