Someone once told us that there is no good weather, there is no bad weather, there is only weather. Our advice is to dress appropriately, grab an umbrella and enjoy the summer months. The warm weather outside is great for staying active and the rainy days that move you indoors can be used to practice your colder month activities.

Are you heading off to school?
Many post secondary institutions offer health plans that include dental coverage. If you are enrolled in a post secondary program, remember to look into the coverage offered to you.

We'd love to see your smile!
Summer vacations will be winding down in the upcoming weeks. School supplies, carpools and daily routine are just around the corner for many households. Even if there are no children around your home, many of our patients find that the summer months are more flexible when it comes to time. Whether you are heading back to school, back to work, or have been at your desk all summer, now is a great time to come in for a check up and cleaning.

The root canal procedure is often the most effective way to save a natural tooth once a cavity/decay, infection or injury has gone too far for a simple repair.

The outer layer of your tooth is made of a hard substance called enamel. This layer is made to withstand chewing forces and the daily activities of your mouth. It also protects the dentin and pulp portion of your teeth that are connected directly to your bloodstream and nourish the tooth.

It's in our water, our toothpaste and we are even treated with it when we visit the dentist, but what exactly is fluoride?

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that is found in the earths crust and throughout nature. Fluoride is used widely in dentistry to combat tooth decay.

It does this in three ways:

Fluoride aids in the remineralization of your teeth - this is the process that replenishes the calcium and phosphorous that keep your teeth hard.
Fluoride makes the tooth more resistant to the formation of tooth decay.
Fluoride inhibits the ability of oral bacteria to create acids.

Consuming the small amount that is often added in public drinking water has been shown to reduce your risk of tooth decay.

If you have any questions or concerns about fluoride ask us on your next visit, we'd be pleased to answer them.
