Do you know about chips? Are you certain about treating chipped teeth? Do you know if this is something that can affect your smile health or if it’s just a matter of esthetic details?

Let our quiz guide you (and remember, it’s always easy and smart to call us for a visit).
Are you noticing that you’ve been grinding your teeth lately? Do you do this in your sleep and you would never have known had your significant other not mentioned it? Maybe you don’t clench on purpose but you’re aware that it’s happening, particularly when you’re stressed. Whatever the case, if you are dealing with bruxism disorder, then you need treatment (and suggestions) to address the problem and keep symptoms from worsening. Let’s talk about how we can help you!
What’s the problem with the way your smile looks? If your immediate response includes something along the lines of “there are spaces in my smile!” then this is certainly something we have heard before. Did you know that gaps in your grin can be more than just an eyesore? You’ve probably noticed that they can trap food (or grab your soft tissue), so closing them certainly provides you with many benefits. How to do that you may wonder to yourself? Not a problem. Consider cosmetic treatment options.
Of course, with just about anything these days, there appears to be a searchable, do-it-yourself (DIY) option for something you need to accomplish.
