Do you have high levels of stress in your life? We know many things can lead to higher stress. You may be surprised to learn that stress can affect not only your overall health but your oral health as well. We want to share some ways your stress level may be harming your teeth and mouth:
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.
At McMillan Family Dental, one of our goals is to help patients enjoy optimal oral health throughout their lifetime. We only have one set of teeth, and we want to do all we can to help them last for as long as possible. One way we can help achieve this is through preventative dentistry.
Did you know that we help patients who suffer from sleep apnea? Millions of people suffer from this common condition and often do not receive the help they need because they aren’t sure who to turn to.

One of our patients who suffers from sleep apnea recently shared his experience with his treatment and some thoughts about our practice.
