The practice of teeth whitening dates back to 4,000 years ago in ancient Egypt! At the time, a mixture of pumice stone and vinegar was used to lighten people’s smiles.
The most widespread disease is the common cold. The runner up? Tooth decay. Fortunately, visiting your dentist annually can reduce your risk by 60%!
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!
To our patients, The practice will be closed on Wednesday, November 25th, and Thursday, November 26th in observance of Thanksgiving. We are thankful to have such wonderful patients and hope you all enjoy this time with your family members or close friends.
From using their teeth to cut ribbons to opening a bottle of wine, people are hard on their teeth during the holidays. So, it’s not surprising that many patients experience cracks or chips in their teeth during the winter season. To prevent this from happening to you, grab the scissors or the bottle opener!
Don’t Forget to schedule your dental appointment before the year ends!
Did you know a 32-ounce sports drink contains between 14 and 19 teaspoons of sugar? That’s roughly six times the recommended amount for kids and teens! To protect your child’s oral health and keep them hydrated, opt for water instead.
6% of Americans said they would share their toothbrush with a celebrity!
To keep your toothbrush clean, place it at least six feet away from your toilet. Otherwise, it can be exposed to the bacteria that travels after flushing.
Did you know your toothbrush is home to more than 100 million bacteria? To keep your teeth and gums healthy, the American Dental Association recommends replacing it every three to four months.

Brushing twice a day does wonders for your oral health, but alone it only cleans about 60% of your teeth. To clean the remaining 40% of plaque and tartar, you should floss daily! That way, you can effectively clean the areas of your mouth that the bristles cannot reach.
Candy-based holidays, like Halloween, can wreak havoc on your oral health. Fortunately, you can protect your teeth by eating a healthy meal beforehand. Not only can it coat your teeth, but it can also increase the production of saliva, which helps fight cavities. Just make sure to follow your candy consumption with a good brushing and flossing!
Amid the current pandemic, our lives have changed in more ways than one. However, clenching your teeth, poor sleep, and frequent snacking with no trips to the dentist in sight can wreak havoc on your teeth. So, make sure to implement a solid daily oral care routine at home and speak to your dentist about how you can safely attend your biannual visit.
Thank you, Veterans, for your service!
A New Orleans dentist introduced the concept of flossing in 1815 when he offered patients a strand of silk thread to clean between their teeth. By 1882, factories were producing unwaxed, silk dental floss for mass use.
Your tongue takes up a large amount of real estate in your mouth, so it is important not to neglect it! To keep it clean and bacteria-free, use your toothbrush or a tongue scraper to clean it from front to back during your oral hygiene routine.
There are over 100 million bacteria in one drop of saliva!
Recent research found that chewing sugar-free gum after your meal can encourage the production of saliva, remove food particles, protect your teeth from decay, and give you minty-fresh breath. So, don’t hesitate to opt for a stick or two until you can get to your oral hygiene routine!
Before the invention of toothpaste, people used charcoal, chalk, ashes, honey, and lemon juice to clean their teeth!
Cavities, also known as tooth decay, is considered one of the most common chronic diseases in the world, which is why daily brushing and twice a year dental visits are so important!
