“We love what we do and its shows in our patient’s smiles when they enter and leave our office.”
Dr. Brian Carp
Regular Check-ups
Do you think you only need a check up once a year? That may be a mistake. After your next visit, ask your dentist how often you should have a check-up. Simple, regular check-ups using fluoride and/or the sealing of small pits in the enamel of your teeth may severely limit your chances of tooth decay and other more serious and painful problems.
Eat A Healthy Diet
Do you love Gummy Bears, Swedish Fish and other sticky treats? We do too! But, eating sticky or dry foods that remain on your teeth increases the risk of cavity development. So, if you can’t eat healthy all the time, remember to brush your teeth after each meal. It will significantly decrease your risk of cavities!
Floss Daily
We realize that flossing can be a pain but it is very important if you want to have a healthy smile and odorless breath! Try to use dental floss at least once a day to remove harmful plaque and left over food from between your teeth. In addition to flossing, regular brushing with a soft brush will prevent gum disease, which causes bad breath and can lead to loss of teeth.
We are always welcoming new patients to our practice. Request a new patient exam here.
