A friendly annual reminder from your friends at the ADA!

Just in time for Black Friday (and through this weekend only at Costco)! Give someone you love just what they need to keep their smile healthy! Treat yourself too!

For my patients, I sometimes use the image of a bruise on an apple to describe a cavity in a tooth. Without intervention, it spreads and grows towards the center. Waiting until it hurts is often too late. If this apple was a tooth, this would be called a pulp exposure requiring a root canal to save the tooth.

Look what a difference a smile can make!

I’m proud to be a life member of the American Dental Association. This is great information, useful for parents as well as grandparents.
