Thinking about tooth whitening?

What is an overbite?

Bye-Bye, Buck Teeth! How to Overcome an Overbite

It’s a common condition, but not one that people have to live with. In fact, there are just as many corrective methods for this dental problem as the ...

Prevent cavities

Tooth decay can begin as soon as a baby’s teeth come in. Decay in baby teeth can cause pain. If decay is not treated, it can destroy your child’s teeth. An abscess (pus filled sac) from an untreated cavity can cause serious or even deadly infections. And children with tooth decay may have trouble eating, so they don’t get enough vitamins and minerals to grow up healthy.

When plaque on teeth (a sticky film of bacteria and bits of food) uses ...

Baby’s first teeth

To give your child a healthy start in life, it’s important to take care of his or her teeth and gums. That’s because if dental disease is not treated, it can cause serious health problems.

Your child’s baby (primary) teeth are important. These teeth help your child chew and speak normally. Baby teeth also hold space in the jaws for the adult (permanent) teeth that come in later.

Our adolescent patients are often anxious about wisdom teeth. Family members and peers share stories of what happened to their wisdom teeth.

The answer to these questions and more can be found in the video below from the Department ...

Talking about loose teeth

Kids love to talk about teeth. Our youngest patients love to talk about how many teeth they have. And our bigger patients love to talk about how many teeth are falling out. Kids love a loose tooth. They love to discuss them. They love to wiggle them. They love to talk about which of their friends have one. And they love to know when their next tooth will fall out because they love to know when the tooth fairy is ...
