YOUR SMILE, NOT JUST YOUR MIND AND BODY, SUFFERS FROM STRESS! SEE HOW!!

Unbalanced stress may result in a headache, a stomachache, or just a feeling of being "on edge". Furthermore, excess stress could also affect your mouth, teeth, and overall health.

How would you know your smile, or mouth, is stressed? Well, among other symptoms and signs, those listed below are some of the more common findings when dealing with "smile tension, or stress":

  • mouth sores ( canker sores )
  • grinding or clenching of teeth
  • poor eating habits
  • poor oral hygiene
  • periodontal ( gum ) disease may start or worsen

What I would recommend is to BRUSH, FLOSS, and VISIT YOUR DENTIST REGULARLY.  Regular check-ups lead to early detection of:

  • cavities
  • broken fillings
  • gum disease
  • oral cancer
  • TMJ disorder
  • premature tooth loss

When these, or any, abnormalities are detected early, usually during routine visits to your dentist, you will most definitely benefit from less complicated, less costly, and more predictable solutions, enabling us to create, and maintain a "Smile You'd Be Proud To Wear...ANYWHERE!"
