It is easy to get your mouth clean and healthy, and keep it that way. A simple routine of brushing and cleaning between the teeth, good eating habits and regular dental check-ups can help prevent most dental problems.

A few small changes in your daily routine can make a big difference in the long run.

Just like we do, dogs and cats get plaque on their teeth, which can be removed by tooth-brushing. Plaque is made of proteins (from saliva) and bacteria. If the plaque is not removed every day, the bacteria will multiply rapidly, resulting in gingivitis, or inflammation of the gums. In many cases, build-up of plaque eventually leads to destruction of the bone around the teeth and loss of attachment of the teeth (periodontal disease). Ultimately, the teeth may become loose or even fall out.

Ask your dentist to review your home care habits. Often times just one or two good suggestions can add years of good dental health to your teeth, smile, and gums.

Healthy eating habits lead to healthy teeth. Like the rest of the body, the teeth, bones and the soft tissues of the mouth need a well-balanced diet. Children should eat a variety of foods from the five major food groups. Sticky snacks, such as fruit rolls, gummy bears, granola bars and raisins are harmful to the teeth. The more frequently a child snacks, the greater the chance for tooth decay. How long food remains in the mouth also plays a role.

Soft tissue grafts and other root coverage procedures are designed to conceal exposed roots, reduce further gum recession, and protect your vulnerable roots from decay. During this procedure, your periodontist takes gum tissue from your palate or another donor source to cover the exposed root. This can be done for one tooth or several teeth to even your gum line and reduce sensitivity.

No, great care is taken to block out/protect your gums and any sensitive areas on the teeth. The bleaching procedure if performed correctly does not damage either of these structures.

Most of the plans that we offer are Point of Service plans. This means you have the option of going to either a participating provider (in network) or going to a non-participating provider (out-of-network). The choice is yours. When you see a non-participating provider you have elected to use your out of network benefits. With out of network benefits your out of pocket costs are higher. Your deductible, coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximum are greater than with your in network benefits.

No it’s not. Long term investing (10+ years) is all about catching the mega trends in the market and compounding these over the years. If you think too much about the market it’s a very real likelihood that you might believe the market is heading lower (and sell your investments) whereas it actually goes higher. This causes even the best investors real problems and the question now becomes ‘when and how do I get back in’.
