Do I have
to floss every day? Is it really that important?
Yes, it really is that important. Proper daily flossing removes dental
plaque that is in between your teeth. If plaque is not removed, it
can harden into rough porous deposits called calculus, or tartar. The
pores in tartar hold bacteria and toxins, which are impossible to remove
even with regular brushing. Once the hardened tartar forms, it can
only be removed when teeth with a professional dentist cleaning.

I want my
front teeth to look better, but I do not want to wear braces. What
would you recommend?
For slightly crooked or unevenly worn teeth, a bit of reshaping and
the addition of porcelain veneers may be sufficient to give them a
bright, uniform look. Porcelain veneers can enhance your smile by making
your teeth look more beautiful and whiter, especially in situations
where teeth may resist traditional whitening methods. They can also
reshape your teeth for a more youthful, natural appearance. For further
information, please call our office. We would be happy to talk about
the appropriate option for you.

many other features of your mouth and face. He will then take the time
to explain the relationships of each of these features and answer your

younger.
