Do you often grind your teeth or clench your jaw? Not only is this habit annoying, for your significant other as well as you, but routine grinding and clenching could mean bruxism, a serious disorder that threatens the health and stability of your smile. Fortunately, your Houston, TX, dentists can help stop teeth grinding with a custom-made nightguard.
Every now and then, we like to take a break from our usual oral health topics and take a closer look at our community. Houston, TX, offers tons of fun and exciting events for you to attend with your friends and family. In today’s blog, we’re going to look at four events taking place this weekend. So, if you haven’t made any big plans for the weekend, we can help!
Our previous blog was all about dental checkups and cleanings, and how these help safeguard smiles in Houston, TX, from the onset of tooth decay and gum disease. But what if a patient comes to us with the indicators of gingivitis or even the early stages of gum disease? In order to manage the issue and protect overall oral health, we may suggest a deep cleaning, also known as a scaling and root planing.
If we asked how much time has elapsed between your last cleaning and now, what would say? Six months? A year? Two or more years? Often, we find people don’t realize just how vital a routine visit is for keeping your teeth and gums healthy and free of complications, such as cavities and gum disease. In order to help our Houston, TX, patients enjoy healthier smiles, we always recommend a six-month dental cleaning.
