A New Way To Numb
In the dental office, we never mention the “n” word…the one that rhymes with beedle. If it weren’t for the “beedles,” maybe we dentist would be more popular. Nobody likes “beedles,” but if we didn’t numb your tooth, we definitely wouldn’t remain friends.
But what if we could numb your tooth without you even knowing it? Or, better yet, what if we could do some procedures without the use of “beedles” altogether.

Can too much whitening harm tooth enamel?
There has always been some disagreement in the dental world about this question. Some past studies showed that high-concentration hydrogen peroxide-based products can cause increased porosity leading to demineralization and calcium loss, but results have always been inconclusive.

NFL player T.O. uses it. So does Adrian Peterson. So does professional golfer Hunter Mahan and professional baseball player David Ortiz. What am I talking about? Performance enhancing drugs? Nope. Try performance enhancing mouthguards.
Athletes lose approximately 5 million teeth every year making mouthpieces an essential piece of equipment for any sport. Mouthpieces may not only protect teeth and prevent concussions, but recent research shows some types may actually increase athletic performance. Read on for a review of mouthpieces and the science (or myth) behind performance enhancing mouthwear.

Is your snoring keeping the neighbors awake? We have the answer for you! With a success rate of over 80%, the Silent Nite Anti-Snoring device is the most popular on the market. It can not only help with the noise, but also make you feel more refreshed in the morning.
Studies estimate that 45% of men and 30% of women snore on a regular basis. Occasional snoring is usually not very serious and is mostly a nuisance for the bed partner of the person who snores. However, the habitual snorer not only disrupts the sleep patterns of those close to him, he also disturbs his own. Habitual snorers snore whenever they sleep and are often tired after a night of what seems like quality rest.

Ahhh…Valentine’s Day. The time of love, red roses, chocolate hearts, and….kissing! There’s arguably more kissing on Valentine’s Day than any other day of the year. The Valentine’s Day gift breakdown shows 65% greeting cards, 38% candy, 32% flowers, and 11% jewelry. At the end of the day, all the gift giving is for one notable reason – for the eloquent, midnight smooch.
As dentists, we seem to always focus on the negatives. Don’t eat candy or you’ll get a cavity; don’t brush too hard or your gums will recede; don’t eat ice or you could chip a tooth. We could talk about the risky business of kissing, like the sharing of harmful bacteria or the transmission of different illnesses. But not today. We’ll only explore the positives of the “make out” and discuss ways to “kiss a little longer.”
