You can take simple precautions to avoid accident and injury to your teeth. To reduce the chances of damage to your teeth, lips, cheek and tongue, wear a mouth guard when participating in sports or recreational activities that may pose a risk. Avoid chewing ice, popcorn kernels and hard candy, all of which can crack a tooth. Use scissors rather than your teeth to cut tape or packaging.
When accidents happen, knowing what to do can mean the difference between saving and losing a tooth.
General Advice on dental emergencies

PPO dentists participate in the network thereby agreeing to accept contracted fees as payment in full rather than their usual fee for patients with the PPO. When you visit a PPO dentist, you typically pay a certain percentage of the reduced rate (called coinsurance) and the plan pays the rest. The Read More
Affordable Teeth whitening at Denton Smiles Dentistry in Denton, TX. Zoom whitening Denton, TX
Have you ever gone to a mall and seen the kiosks for tooth whitening? They are almost always cheaper than the tooth whitening at your dentist’s office and they use that blue light that they used on “Extreme Makeover.” Why not give it a try?
Mall whitening does use the same chemical (hydrogen peroxide gel) as dentist office whitening. Actually, over-the-counter whitening strips like Crest Whitestrips also use this ingredient. We all use hydrogen peroxide because it works. However, I can think of a few problems that can be avoided if you whiten your teeth at the dentist’s office.
- Some people aren’t good candidates for whitening. If you’ve had fillings, crowns or bridge work on your front teeth whitening might not be a great choice for you. Often it can be a great choice in combination with a well thought out treatment plan from your dentist. Will the Read More
