Or maybe you want to talk about possibilities for decreasing the amount of time you grind your teeth.

The other day one of my patient's teenagers asked for charcoal toothpaste. So, of course, this is the latest thing to hit the shelves. So, she tells me that, of course, she went looking. "I mean, who doesn't want charcoal toothpaste." She was surprised to see how many toothpastes for sale had the ADA approval seal as she was looking, which made me smile.Ìý

This is so important, and luckily we had just chatted about why this is so important to keep your smile healthy. So with this is on my mind, I wanted to be sure to share it with my readers. Toothpaste that has ADA approval has had its data submitted and published to the ADA Council on Scientific Affairs. It ensures that the product meets specific requirements for safety and efficacy. It may also contain other ingredients that help keep your smile healthy. Without this label, there is no guarantee that the toothpaste will genuinely support and keep your smile healthy. The label can tell you everything you need to know. However, if you have any questions about toothpaste, please contact us today.Ìý

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.

It can seem that your smile is not as crucial to your overall health, but you would be wrong in making this assumption. Instead, your smile fuels the health of your body. For example, if you are fighting periodontal disease or another infection in your mouth, it puts your body into fighting over-drive.Ìý

Maybe you are impacted by a broken tooth or a cracked one. That again may seem like a minor problem; however, you might be intentionally not eating certain foods because it causes you pain. This reduced food intake or nutrient-rich foods could be depleting your body of the necessary nutrients it needs so you can be at your best. Not to mention, if you are experiencing dental pain, you might not be sleeping as well as expected.Ìý

None of this should be ignored. Call us today and schedule a consultation. Get your healthy smile and your health back on track. Contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team for more information.Ìý

It is easy to let certain habits go when you are at home all day or working from home. So, how can you continue with healthy smile habits when your schedule is disrupted?

Brush your teeth and floss as soon as your feet hit the floor. You don't want to get other things in the way and sidetrack you.ÌýPack healthy snacks to keep by your side. It's easy to eat whatever when your kitchen is right next to you. So, pack healthy snacks. Or ensure you have healthy fruits and vegetables set aside for you to consume during the day. They are great for your smile.ÌýDrink water! Drinking water is a fantastic way to keep your smile healthy. It rinses food from your teeth. This ensures that food does not stick to the enamel on your teeth.

While these habits are not new, they are great reminders to keep your smile healthy in time, when things have changed drastically for some. For more information on keeping your smile healthy, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team!

You may have had a stutter throughout your entire life that impacts your social life now. Maybe you have found ways to get around it and work through it, until you are in the middle of a bunch of people staring at you. It is okay, there now may be a procedure that can help. If you have tried other things and stuttering is still a problem you are facing, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team and schedule a consultation for Lip or Tongue tie laser surgery.
It was believed a few years ago that lip and tongue ties only impacted babies when they were breastfeeding, but recent research shows us that not only can a tongue tie that goes untreated cause problems for a little one trying to learn to read and talk, it can have long lasting problems for individuals as well, and one of those problems is stuttering.
The piece of skin that holds the tongue down is necessary so that there is structure in place and that your tongue just doesn’t flop around in your mouth, but when this tissue is too tight, it can lead to a host of problems for individuals. New laser procedures can help release this and allow you to live the life you have wanted, free of stuttering.
