If you just started to floss, a little bleeding may be normal. However, if you bleed almost every time you brush or floss your teeth, see your dentist. The sooner the better! 🦷 Be sure to make regular appointments with your dentist (every 6 months!) to keep you and your family's oral health in tip top shape! 😁 If you are looking for a pediatric dentist for your child, give us a call today!

“Baby teeth don't matter, they're going to fall out anyways" - said no dentist ever! 🤪
A common myth we hear time and time again is that baby teeth do not matter.
This could not be further from the truth!
🦷 Baby teeth are extremely important for the development of your child's chewing and speaking abilities. Baby teeth also create space for adult teeth!
🪥Don't forget to brush twice a day, floss once a day (starting when their teeth start to touch!) and visit your dentist every 6 months to ensure a long-lasting and beautiful smile!
Here's why we don't recommend rinsing after brushing ⬇️ If you take a look at the fluoride content in your mouthwash and compare it to the fluoride content in your toothpaste, you'll see that your toothpastes content is higher! We certainly don't want to wash away the fluoride from our toothpaste with water or mouthwash, right? Right! So, if you really want to use mouthwash, use it before you brush your teeth or at a different time throughout the day. Did you know this?? 😅👇👇
