Summer Dental Care Tips

We don’t know about you, but we are loving the summer weather and long days! As fun as summer may be, it is still important that you continue to care for your oral health. You might be surprised at how quickly problems can creep up and lead to oral health complications. We would hate for you to experience any problems during the summer. Read on to learn more about the importance of caring for your teeth this summer.

Importance Of Restorative Dentistry

At McMillan Family Dental, we believe in providing dental care that will make a difference in your life. Our goal is to help our patients avoid complications and problems with their teeth and gums. As hard as we try, we regularly see patients with less-than-ideal oral health. Whether they are dealing with recurring decay, gum disease, or tooth loss, it can be frustrating when your oral health is suffering. In these instances, we will recommend a restorative dental treatment. Restorative dental treatments are used to help those who experience recurrent decay, frequent discomfort, missing teeth, or visible dental damage.

“Seal” Your Teeth Against Cavities

When patients visit our office for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning, one of their main concerns is whether we find signs of tooth decay. Decay in the rear teeth is very common due to the deep grooves found in these teeth. It can be difficult to clean them properly, leaving food and bacteria to sit for prolonged periods of time, eventually turning into decay. Thankfully, there is a simple treatment that can help protect your teeth. Read on to learn more.

We Can Save Your Teeth With Root Canal Treatment

At McMillan Family Dental, we are passionate about doing all we can to help our patients’ oral health. Teeth are designed to last a lifetime, but when they are not cared for properly or treatment is avoided, it can lead to an extraction and the need for a tooth replacement. There is one treatment we often use to save the tooth before an extraction is needed — a root canal. Over the years, root canals have gotten a bad reputation, but thanks to advancements in treatment and technology, the process is similar to a more involved filling.

Look Younger With Facial Esthetics Treatments

We want to help you look and feel your best! Do you look in the mirror and find things that you wish you could change or improve about your face? As we age, we may start to notice more lines and wrinkles that appear in different places on our faces. If you are self-conscious or unhappy with your appearance, we offer a variety of facial esthetic treatment options that can make the changes you want to see on your face.
