Are You Due For Your Next Teeth Cleaning And Checkup?
What kind of feedback did you receive at your last routine dental exam? Did your dentist find a problem that required restorative dental treatment, or was your smile found to be issue-free? Were any areas of concern pointed out to you? One thing to remember is that even an appointment that leads to nothing but good news requires follow-up care at home, and during a subsequent visit. Unless you are told by your dentist to follow a different schedule, you should stick to a semiannual treatment schedule whenever possible. By doing so, you can enjoy consistent support in the form of evaluations as well as professional teeth cleanings. (more…)

Can Sleep Deprivation Affect Your Oral Hygiene Efforts?
When you struggle with daily fatigue, it can become difficult to take on tasks that have previously offered up little trouble. While you might be well aware of how fatigue is affecting you when it comes to work, or how it affects your mood, you may not realize just how much trouble it can cause for your oral health. People who frequently feel exhausted due to a lack of sleep can feel especially tired at the bookends of their day – in other words, at the times when they tend to brush and floss. Because of this, their routine may become less effective because they are frequently distracted, or because they simply feel too tired to take care of their smile. At our Greenville, TX dentist’s office, we can provide support for patients during routine dental exams to keep their teeth and gums healthy. We can also discuss your sleep troubles, particularly if there is a possible link between your fatigue and sleep apnea. (more…)
