It’s National Gum Care Month

General Dentistry, Gum Disease

Maintaining healthy gums is one of the easiest things you can do for your oral health. Many people don’t understand the importance of healthy gums. This is the reason we recognize National Gum Care Month. When you visit our office for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning, we do more than just clean and check your teeth. We also evaluate your gum health. Healthy gums are necessary to not only provide support for your teeth and tooth roots but for your jawbone as well.

When was the last time you and your loved ones visited our office for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning? If it has been over six months since your last visit, you are due! We know that the start of the school year is fast approaching, so we encourage any of our teenage and younger patients — and our teachers — to schedule their next appointment as soon as possible. We know that the fall can be a hectic time and want to see you before then to ensure you have no problems with your oral health. Read on to learn more.

Caring For Your Oral Health When Traveling

General Dentistry

At Muse Dental Studio, we have been loving hearing about all your summer plans. We know many of our patients have trips and vacations planned before the return of the school year. Continuing to care for your oral health while on your travels is extremely important. It can be tempting to relax your oral hygiene routine, but we do not recommend that. Not cleaning your teeth properly, even a few times, can lead to oral health complications. Here are some helpful tips to remember when you travel:

Do You Have Sensitive Teeth?

Do you have difficulty eating hot and cold foods because it bothers your teeth? If so, you may be suffering from tooth sensitivity. When we experience tooth sensitivity, it is our mouth’s way of alerting us to a problem with our oral health. Do you know what issues with tooth sensitivity may mean for your oral health?

Prevention Is The Best Intervention

General Dentistry, Patient Education

We are passionate about helping our patients achieve optimal oral health. You only get one set of teeth, and we want to do all we can to help them last for many years to come. The best way to do this is with preventative dental care. Preventative dentistry helps patients avoid complications with their oral health, such as decay and gum disease. Building good dental health practices creates a sound foundation to ensure your mouth remains healthy.

April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know that oral cancer deals with more than just the inside of the mouth? The lips and throat also fall under the category of oral cancer. When you visit our office for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning, not only do we thoroughly clean the teeth, but we also look for signs of decay, gum disease, and oral cancer.

How To Help Prevent Tooth Decay In Children

February is Children’s Dental Health Month. The American Dental Association uses February as a time to promote good oral health among children. Whether you have a child in your life or not, now is an excellent time to evaluate the state of your own oral health. Our younger patients often need some assistance in helping clean their teeth and learning healthy dental habits. If you are a parent of a young child or have a young child in your life, you know it can be a struggle to get them to understand the importance of brushing their teeth properly.
