Avoid coffee, cigarettes, and wine while whitening for maximum effect. Consuming each only in moderation after you’re finished whitening will help maintain your brightened smile. However, discoloration over time is inevitable. The only truly effective care is repeated whitening treatments.

No part of the dental implant process should be painful! This includes extractions. The only pain you may feel is during recovery. Our team will work with you to outline a plan for care that speeds along recovery times and reduces pain.

Don’t be intimidated by your dental cleaning! Dental cleanings typically take anywhere from forty-five minutes to an hour. This timeframe includes any preventative care, like X-Rays, fluoride rinses, and tooth or gum disease check-ups.

We also recommend coming in for a regular cleaning once every 6 months.

Dental first aid kits should include clove oil as a natural, safe way to prevent pain. If you are in pain, take a mild painkiller like aspirin and clean the affected area. Then, use a cotton swab to apply clove oil. If the pain doesn’t go away, contact our team for a checkup.
