Hello Everyone,
We hope that you had a relaxing break and are back in the swing of things. January is well under way and the new year is looking promising around our office.
Did the new year bring changes to your dental insurance? Many insurance plans are based on the calendar year and with the new year may come changes. Please remember to let us know if there have been any changes to your plan before your next visit.

We wanted to share some pictures from our holiday party with you.

There you are watching a movie, innocently eating your popcorn...
Crack! Ouch! Uh oh?
Was that your tooth?
Time to call the dentist!
A crown is a covering that sits over the top of the tooth. Crowns protect, cover, seal and strengthen your tooth. When a filling just won't do the job, we often turn to the crown.

There are many situations that may call for a crown:
When large old fillings break down, or get decay around them, the tooth often needs to be crowned. It is important to crown a tooth that has been structurally weakened to prevent further damage such as cracking or breaking.

Protect Your Winning Smile with a Custom Fitted Mouthguard!
Mouthguards are flexible dental appliances worn by athletes to protect teeth from possible damage. They are usually made of plastic materials that fit comfortably over your teeth and gums. There are over the counter variations available, but for the highest level of protection we recommend a custom fitted mouthguard that is made specifically for your smile.
Mouthguards prevent major injuries including concussions, jaw fractures, neck injuries and more by protecting the lower jaw from impacting into the upper jaw. Mouthguards also prevent bruising and laceration of the lips and cheeks.
Whenever there is a possibility of contact either with other competitors or any immovable objects we highly recommend the use of a mouthgaurd.

Many schools and sports leagues require the wearing of mouthguards during both practice and actual competition. Even if this is not mandatory, mouthguards should be worn during active involvement in sports. Parents in particular should ensure that children, who may not be aware of or fully understand the potential dangers, protect their winning smiles through the use of mouthguards. |
