What Actually Happens at a Dental Checkup?

Regular dental checkups are an essential part of maintaining good oral health. While most of us visit the dentist twice a year for these appointments, life can get in the way sometimes.

It is important to make it a priority to visit your dentist for a check-in every six months. And since it’s June (six months from the start of the year), we thought it was the perfect time to remind you. 🙂

We are also going to take you behind the scenes and shed light on the important procedures that take place during a typical dental checkup!

Keep Cavity-Free Despite the Halloween Candy Sugar Rush

Halloween is such an exciting time… deciding what costume you are going to wear, decorating the house, and let’s not forget about the pile of candy that will last you for the next year.

But once the decorations have come down, costumes have been tucked away, and all of the candy has been eaten, what’s left?

Cavities, if you’re not careful!

Check out how much sugar is in some of your favorite Halloween treats and consider their sugar-free counterparts…

Keeping up with your dental health routine while quarantined

We know that 2020 has been difficult for a lot of us. With the pandemic striking the nation and lots of people locked inside, finding dental care can be difficult. Luckily, lots of dental offices have been accepting emergency appointments throughout, and many others are beginning the slow, cautious process of opening their offices back up (including us!). Still, if you’re stuck inside with kids who are not in school (or are out on summer break at this point), it may be hard to stick to a good dental routine for yourself or even to get your kids to stay on point. We’ve got some good tips to help.

Find out how regular dental appointments are now seen as unique opportunities to screen for diabetes and deliver diagnoses that can lead to treatment which otherwise might have been delayed.
