Show Your Smile Some Love

Have you been doing enough to keep up with your smile? Well, if you managed to miss one or both of your biannual checkups in 2025, then the answer is no. You need to come in to see your oral health team twice each year in order to fight back against common dental concerns like tooth decay and periodontal disease, and when you skip your visits, you’re at risk. So, before your Valentine’s Day date, come in for a refresh.

With our helpful, neighborhood dentists at MMC Dental in Houston, TX, you have someone looking out for your smile. We know the value of having a strong, beautiful set of teeth, and we work with people to help them find their way to a great smile success story. This time of the year, it’s a good opportunity to discuss lifting enamel stains and battling periodontal disease. On that note, let’s get into it!

Your date appreciates your oral health efforts. Make a plan for a safer smile with MMC Dental.

Enamel Stains Have You Down?

We get it. It can be truly tough to be yourself when you are focused on your smile imperfections. Enamel staining is one of the most prevalent of these, and they can be difficult to remove on your own. Even with all of the over-the-counter whitening products out there, they just might not be effective, and when that happens, talk to your dentist about your next steps.

Our office offers simple and convenient whitening solutions. Start your journey with your next checkup, and while you’re here for your cleaning and examination, we can talk about your dental direction. Whether that means erasing enamel stains, planning for porcelain veneers, or another cosmetic avenue, we’re here to help. We want you to know not only what’s available, but what’s achievable, too.

Periodontal Disease Can Affect Loved Ones, Too

There’s some bad news out there for people with periodontal disease. The bacteria that cause this condition can be transmitted through salivary contact, so you may be sharing more than love this Valentine’s Day. If your dentist has given you a diagnosis of periodontal disease, think about holding back from those kisses.

And when it’s time for your next biannual checkup, let’s talk about ways to fight back. Periodontal disease is routinely identified as the leading cause of adult tooth loss, so it’s important. Ask about keeping a cleaner smile through scaling and root planing.
