Overcome common dental issues

Taking care of your smile means knowing when it’s time to see your dentist. It’s a good idea to visit your local Celebrate Dental & Braces as soon as you experience symptoms for common dental issues, such as tooth sensitivity or consistent bad breath. Your dentist will work with you to create a customized care plan to treat the issue at the source and get you smiling again.

Tips for preventing oral health problems

A strong smile starts with healthy gums (and teeth, of course). That means paying extra attention to them with good oral health habits like these:

TIP 1

Brush your teeth

Not just once, but brush your teeth twice daily. Use a soft bristle brush to gently massage your gums to rid bacteria and prevent plaque from building up along the gumline. Ahhhh.

TIP 2

Floss like a boss

According to a survey conducted by the American Academy of Periodontology, only 1 in 4 Americans floss every day. The result? An increased risk for gum disease. By getting into the daily habit, you can keep bacteria and plaque at bay.

TIP 3

Skip sugary foods

When it comes to cavities, candy is the biggest culprit (sorry, gummi bears). The sugars break down the enamel of your teeth, making them more prone to decay. Acidic foods do damage too, so limit your intake to keep your smile strong. Explore preventative measures you can take to keep your mouth its healthiest.

Is it time to restore your smile?

Sometimes a tooth repair or restoration is unavoidable—but your Celebrate Dental & Braces team has services to support you. Our dental experts are skilled at providing common treatments like dental fillings, root canal therapy and placing crowns. How can we help you today?

Dental fillings

Combat cavities with a simple dental filling. Small surface decay can be filled in a short office visit with little to no discomfort while a deeper cavity may require more time.

Root canal therapy

Root canal therapy can save a damaged or infected tooth and keep your smile healthy for years to come. Your care team will keep you safe and comfortable during your procedure, so it won’t feel much different than having your tooth filled.

Dental crowns

Just complete a root canal? A dental crown can fit over your tooth to restore its shape and usability. Explore how this solution can work for your smile (and keep your oral health in top shape).
