Don’t Leave Your Smile Vulnerable

You deserve to have a beautiful and healthy smile. Do not leave your smile vulnerable to cavities, periodontal disease or missing, cracked or broken teeth. Taking time to visit your cosmetic dentist and receive a consultation on your smile, can ensure you are on the right track. Nowadays, grabbing a soda and candy bar for lunch may be the norm for you. However, that amount of sugar can impact your smile.

There are so many choices you can make during the day. If you are going to consume sugar or a high carbohydrate meal, instead of waiting until bedtime to brush, you might want to consider brushing your teeth or rinsing with water to remove some of the food particles from the surface of your teeth. The longer these items are glued to the enamel on your teeth the more damage that is done. 

If you find you are struggling to have a healthy smile you love, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team. They can help evaluate and work with you on a plan to get your smile back in order. It is critically important you have a healthy smile because if not it can lead to other more detrimental problems later on.

Teeth Replacement Options

Gone are the days in cosmetic dentistry where you do not have choices. If you have missing, broken or cracked teeth, you have options that can put your smile back in optimal condition. The health of our smile can determine so many other things for our bodies and our minds, so don’t let your smile determine your worth.

Implants have become an extremely viable option to use in order to replace missing teeth. There are several options depending on the look that you want. No longer do you have to choose dentures that fall out during inopportune times, or have one tooth that is the wrong color. Implants can be permanent solutions that when taken care of they can last a lifetime.  When they are done correctly they look and feel just like your own teeth as well as help you to regain control over your bite function.

When you have missing teeth or mis-fitting dentures, it can be difficult to chew your favorite foods because they don’t perform well or because of the bite pressure of dentures. However, with implants this is not a problem because the implant is placed into the bone socket of the missing tooth or teeth. Allowing it to feel as if nothing was ever lost. Now is your time to ensure you have the smile you want. For more information, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team.

It’s Getting Hot Out There, So Don’t Forget The Water!

As the temperatures continue to rise, it is critical that you are drinking enough water in order for your body and your mouth to stay hydrated. Once you begin to feel a dry mouth it is too late. You are already dehydrated and in need of even more fluids. So, how can you ensure that your mouth and your body is getting enough water this summer? Follow these simple 3 steps and you’ll be well on your way to ensuring that your smile is not impacted by dry mouth and dehydration.

1.     Always carry a water bottle with you. Having a water bottle in your purse ensures that you are remembering to fill it up when you are out and about and doesn’t require you to purchase water.

2.     Eat fruit for meals and in between meals. The water concentration in fresh fruits helps to provide the water content in between drinking water.

3.     Utilize fresh fruits and vegetables in your water to add flavor. Drinking plain water can be boring and can be a problem when it comes to motivating yourself to drink more water. By putting some fruits and vegetables in there, it can keep you excited about drinking water for days.
