Your smile is one of your most noticeable features . That is why maintaining the health and look of your teeth is so important. As we age, teeth may lose their luster or become stained or chipped. When this happens, you might not have the confidence to smile as broadly. However, if this happens, there’s no need to become discouraged. Porcelain veneers can change a lackluster smile into one you would be proud to show off. Veneers are very thin pieces of porcelain material that are perfectly shaped to match the natural contours of teeth. T o apply them, a dentist bonds the porcelain to your tooth enamel one-by-one. They look just like the existing teeth and are custom made to match shape, size, and color to blend seamlessly within the smile. If you are looking to veneers to whiten your smile, your dentist will choose a new tooth color that will look the most natural. Veneers can solve a number of different problems, such as: Filling in gaps Smoothing out crooked teeth Evening...

Even if your child is not complaining of any pain and their teeth appear to be in good shape, it’s still very important to for your child to see a family dentist twice a year. A family dentist has undergone additional training in the fields of pediatric dentistry and is capable of addressing the growth, development, and treatment of children’s teeth. These visits  allow the dentist to check for early signs of problems such as decay and crowding teeth. They also let the dentist address any concerns that may affect your child’s dental health like diet and  oral hygiene habits . At what age should my child have their first dental visit?

Brushing your teeth properly is the first step to healthy teeth and gums. Believe it or not, toothbrush bristles can actually  damage your teeth  and gums if you are not using it correctly. Learn how to brush the right way and you’ll protect your teeth for years to come. Brushing the Wrong Way If you’re like most people, you brush your teeth hard and fast; scrubbing your teeth with a back and forth, up and down motion until you feel they are clean. You may feel that the faster and harder you brush, the cleaner your teeth will be. That isn’t the case. Brushing too hard can actually cause damage to your tooth enamel and is very abrasive to your gums. When you brush this way, you are also missing the spaces between your teeth, where tiny food particles and plaque are.
