Yesterday on the Rahny Taylor Morning Show, Rahny was wondering what he can do about clenching and grinding his teeth. This is a more common problem than some people realize and can sometimes affect your TMJ. It is always a good idea to talk to your dentist if you are having these kinds of problems.
In addition, they spoke about what causes crooked teeth and why so many of us need orthodontics. Listen to the full segment here!
Every Tuesday, our own Erin, joins the crew at the Rahny Taylor Morning Show to talk about all things tooth related! Yesterday they talked about what causes yellow or stained teeth and how you can get your teeth whiter!

Sharing Smiles is our mission. We feel that this mission should spread to all aspects of what we do, which is why we are hosting our first FREE educational seminar. We hope to continue these on a monthly basis and eventually will cover additional topics.
Please join us on Monday, July 24th, from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. for a FREE educational seminar on how implants can help restore your mouth to it's full function and your smile to what it was meant to be!
Please call to reserve your spot at this event. This event is not limited to our patients, so please feel free to share it! We hope to see you soon!
Yesterday on The Rahny Taylor Morning Show on 97.3, Erin and the group spoke about sugar-y foods and how sugar can (and does!) affect your teeth. To learn more about how plaque bacteria are fed by sugar and how it can eventually turn into calculus, give a listen to the segment! Remember your trip to the dentist every 6 months can help rid your teeth of calculus build-up. So, don't fret!
Yesterday, on the Rahny Taylor Morning Show on 97.3, Erin discussed with the group why thumb-sucking is not good for your child's teeth.
Ultimately, it comes down to the fact that if you have something, like your thumb, between your upper and lower teeth for long periods of time, your teeth will develop around your thumb. When your teeth develop around something else, they don't line up properly in front. Oftentimes then, the front teeth won't be able to come together, decreasing the functionality of the teeth both for eating, and sometimes speech.
While most children will drop this habit at a relatively early age, it is good to be aware of it and to try to help them to break it sooner than later. If you ever have concerns about your child's teeth, we encourage you to come in and ask us! We are here to serve you!
