Dental Experts Treat Gum Disease in Greensboro Comfortably!

April 13, 2017

Filed under: Uncategorized — @ 5:53 pm

You don’t have to suffer from gum disease in Greensboro. Gum disease in Greensboro doesn’t just affect patients that have bad oral hygiene. It is easy to get gum disease no matter what age or habits you have. Many factors may play into it, even your genetic makeup. Even after practicing good oral hygiene at home patients visit their dentist, expecting a clean bill of health to find out they have gum disease.

Although teeth are meant to last a lifetime, many people lose them due to periodontal disease (advanced gum disease). For some patients, it’s because they don’t realize they could have been taking action to prevent losing their teeth by visiting their dentist for assistance when they first notice signs of unhealthy gums. If our office discovers that you have gum disease, we also have a revitalizing periodontal therapy option for patients wishing to get their oral health back on track.

Free Day of Dental Care a Success

October 6, 2016

Filed under: Uncategorized — @ 1:10 pm

picture-1Each year, a line begins to form the night before the actual event.

Men and women bundled in coats, and loaded down with camping chairs, blankets and sleeping bags, crowd the sidewalk in front of Lake Oconee Dentistry. By the time team members begin arriving at 4:30 a.m. to set up for the day, there’s typically a crowd of at least 50 people waiting for them.

It’s a sight that is both heartbreaking and heartwarming.

“Now, more than ever, there are people in need of dental services who have no means to afford them — whether they are unemployed or experiencing some other serious financial difficulty,” says Dr. Patti Bradley. “While there are a lot of programs available for those in need of medical care, programs for those needing dentistry don’t really exist.”

That’s why Lake Oconee Dentistry began hosting Dentistry from the Heart, a free day of dental care, in 2010.

You Didn’t Inherit Soft Teeth

September 3, 2014

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — @ 11:15 am

IT’S TRUE THAT EVERY ASPECT OF OUR HEALTH IS AFFECTED TO SOME DEGREE BY OUR GENES. And yes, some people just seem to be more predisposed to getting cavities. But it’s probably not a matter of “soft” versus “hard” teeth.

“I Do Everything Right And I Still Get Cavities”

Does this sound like you? If so, you’re the rare exception—and although it isn’t typical, we understand. That’s why it’s SO important that you pay particular attention to the basics.

You Probably ARE Inheriting Your Oral Bacteria

There’s good bacteria and bad bacteria. That unique mix, in your unique mouth, and how your mouth reacts to that mix may be what you’re really inheriting from grandpa. This video talks about oral bacteria mix or imbalance:

BY THE WAY… If you watched the video above, Josh says, “All you have to do is brush.” Hey Josh… We have one criticism of your video. You need to floss too! When you skip flossing, you’re missing up to 35% of your tooth’s surface area!

You May Have Inherited A Tendency Toward Dry Mouth

Are you a mouth breather? Was everyone who attended last summer’s family reunion a mouth breather too? Our saliva is a critical primary defense against tooth decay. Dry mouth may be a problem you need to be aware of and treat.

You May Be Inheriting A Few Eating Habits

Some of us emulate our parents when it comes to the way we eat. That may include a tendency to snack a lot, an affinity for soft drinks, etc., which may be detrimental to our dental health.

You’ve Probably Inherited An Oral Hygiene Mindset

How faithfully do you brush and floss? How consistently do you schedule regular dental checkups? Do you avoid (or even fear) dentists? How aware are you of the connection between your oral health and whole body health? Often, these things are priorities/attitudes passed by parents to children (consciously and sub-consciously).

We Can Help You Troubleshoot

As you know, we love talking about this stuff. So if you’re unsure why you’re more cavity prone than you should be, let’s visit. We can help figure it out and suggest solutions to keep your mouth healthy.

Before We Go… Just For Fun…

As Always, Thanks For The Trust You Place In Our Relationship!
