Tooth sensitivity often occurs when gums recede slightly, exposing the underlying dentin. This allows easier access for water and food to reach sensitive nerves. There are various solutions available, including specialized toothpastes, gels, and dental procedures. If you experience significant tooth sensitivity, we recommend scheduling a consultation to discuss appropriate treatment options.

Effective oral hygiene practices at home are essential for preventing gum disease and tooth decay. Consistent daily brushing and flossing form the foundation of good dental care. By maintaining a regular oral hygiene routine, you can significantly reduce the risk of developing gingivitis or tooth decay as you age.

Gingivitis is a dental condition that develops when bacteria accumulate around teeth and penetrate the gums. This can lead to gum irritation, inflammation, and occasional bleeding. To prevent the progression of gingivitis, we strongly recommend regular dental hygiene visits. During these appointments, our hygiene team will demonstrate proper flossing techniques and provide guidance on home care protocols to help prevent periodontal disease.
