The most natural way to replace a missing tooth.
A beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime is our ultimate goal for every patients. Eating balanced meals, reducing the number of snacks you eat and correctly using various dental aids to control the plaque and bacteria that cause dental disease all play an important role in your personal home care.
BRUSHING
Brush your teeth at least twice a day (especially before going to bed at night) with an ADA approved soft bristle toothbrush and toothpaste.
Electric toothbrushes are also recommended. They are easy to use and effectively remove plaque. Simply place the bristles of the electric brush on your gums and teeth and allow the brush to do its job several teeth at a time.
FLOSSING
Daily flossing is the best way to clean between your teeth and under the gumline. Flossing not only helps clean these spaces, it prevents plaque colonies from building up,
averting damage to the gums, teeth and
bone.
Floss holders are recommended if you have difficulty using conventional floss
RINSING
It is important to rinse your mouth with water after brushing, and also after meals if you are unable to brush. If you are using and over-the-counter product for rinsing, it’s a good idea to consult with your dentist or dental hygienist on its appropriateness for you.
Using other dental aids as recommended by your dentist or dental hygienist (interdental brushes, rubber tip stimulators, tongue cleaners, irrigation devices, fluoride, medicated rinses, etc.) can all play a role in good dental home care.
I had a long overdue deep cleaning, root canal/crown, AND fillings within a month. Dr. Thurman, Morgan, Kathy and staff were very attentive and kind with not ONLY the procedures and explanations but with checking up on me after the root canal. Also great at helping me figure out my insurance coverage and payments. Dental Elements is GREAT.
