5 Steps You Can Take To Improve Your Smile!

You may be wondering what you can do from the comfort of your home to keep your smile healthy. Even if you visit the dentist every six months, you still want to take steps to ensure your smile in-between visits. Here are 5 easy steps you can take to keep your smile healthy because a healthy smile can last a lifetime. 

1. Brush. This sounds like a no-brainer, but brushing 2x a day is the only way to remove plaque and buildup from your teeth. 
2. Floss. Flossing ensures that your gums stay healthier than if you didn't floss. Sounds cheeky, right, but the truth of the matter is that if you don't floss, your gums don't have a way to fight the food buildup that happens. 
3. Drink water. I know, I know. You've heard it a thousand times. But water is not only good for your body, but it's essential to your smile. 
4. Eat Fruits and Vegetables. Yep, you guessed it. The water content in fruits and vegetables keeps food from sticking to your teeth. 
5. Drink water. Right, I already mentioned that, but this one pertains to after meals. Drink water after high carbohydrate meals. This is the best way to remove food from the surface of—your teeth after meals. When food builds up, it attacks the plaque on your teeth, causing problems. 

Your smile is essential, and your health is dependent upon the health of your smile. For more information or to schedule a visit, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team.

The Purpose Behind Porcelain Crowns

You may hear porcelain crowns referred to by different names, but the purpose behind them remains the same. If you have a cracked, broken, or damaged tooth, Dr. Judy Strutz and her team might recommend using a crown to fix the problem. 

A crown permanently fixes your natural teeth. The intent is to help you get your beautiful, healthy smile back while having the bonus of strengthening the tooth. The nice thing about a crown is that it can restore your smile without hassle with anything once placed. 

Dr. Strutz and her team might recommend several different types of solutions to support your smile. The goal is always to provide you with a solution that ensures you have a healthy smile that will last a lifetime.

Are You Impacted By One Of These Dental Problems?

There are so many dental problems that might be causing you problems. Dr. Judy Strutz and her team want to ensure that they provide support to all of their patients. Here is a list of some of the most common dental problems that you might schedule a dental visit for: 

Bad Breath. This is called halitosis and goes beyond eating food that has intense flavors. Halitosis can cause problems for your self-esteem, which impacts you in other ways. When you visit the dentist, the goal is to find out the underlined problem leading to bad breath.

Periodontal disease. An infection causes this in your gums. It is typically caused by problems with your brushing and flossing routine. But a visit to the dentist can help to identify the problem and help create a dental plan. 

A cracked or broken tooth. There are many causes for a cracked or broken tooth; however, visiting with the dentist can help to develop a plan that will fit your needs.

Dental problems should not be left as dental intervention is necessary to fix the problem. For more information or to schedule a consultation, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team.

Do You Have Concerns About Oral Cancer?

 

It seems that oral cancer is not talked about as often as other cancers. This, however, does not mean that it isn't deadly. Did you also know that you can get oral cancer even if you have not smoked or chewed tobacco? One of the problems people face with oral cancer is that it often goes undiagnosed until it is a problem. We know a higher rate of people surviving oral cancer when tested for it early, and it is taken care of. So, how do you do this?

 

By calling Dr. Judy Strutz and her team to schedule an appointment, you can get an early oral cancer screening. While it used to be more common among older individuals, this has steadily changed over time. If you have a growth in your mouth, you can't explain if you are a moderate to heavy drinker or smoker. Or you have other health risks. It is in your best interest to get this taken care of and error on the side of safety.
