We are always happy to address our patients’ oral health issues with treatments and techniques that restore their teeth to near perfection. Treating dental problems is a big part of what we do. But what makes us even happier is when we can help our patients prevent problems from happening in the first place.
If you think dental technology doesn’t make much of a difference in your treatment, think again. The technology we use in our office every day enhances your experience as a patient by making you safer and more comfortable. It also allows us to perform procedures faster and more efficiently than ever before.
On International Patient Safety Day, we’re reaffirming our commitment to patient safety! Trust and safety are key to a good doctor-patient relationship, and so we hold ourselves to the highest standards here at McMillan Family Dental.
Quick question: Can you explain the basics of brushing and flossing to your kids? Even if brushing and flossing are second nature to you, hygiene habits are learned, so even small gaps in an explanation can lead to serious issues down the line. No routine eschews the need to see your dentist twice a year, but a good routine helps visits go as smoothly as possible.
Gum disease is a serious oral health threat that most people don’t even know they have. In fact, half of all adults will have gum disease at some point in their lives. Plus, the older we get, the more prone to infection we are, and that includes gum disease. Thankfully, gum disease is entirely preventable!
