3 Simple Yet Compelling Reason To Keep Your Smile Healthy
If you’ve ever pouted and asked yourself, “Why do I even have to brush my teeth, anyway?” our Grand Prairie, TX team has some thoughts for you. We know, sometimes you just don’t feel like it, you don’t feel well, you’re tired, or brushing and flossing (or a preventive visits) isn’t first in line of the list of things you’re excited to do. However, making the time for your smile care is absolutely worth it! Of course, we are well aware that offering up compelling reasons is going to be much more powerful than simply saying, “Oh, it’s great!” So, without further ado, consider some new factors to think about in regard to protecting your oral health.
Why “Natural” Isn’t Always Better
You might think that when you find a natural solution to your smile care woes online or when you hear about them from a friend, they’re probably going to save you time, money, and that they’ll make things easy breezy. Unfortunately, though some natural solutions are wonderful for you, they’re not always better. Remember, it’s all about whether the product you use to clean or treat your smile is safe or unsafe, whether it comes straight from nature or not. So, consider some details that our Grand Prairie, TX team would like you to keep in mind regarding “natural remedies” that aren’t so great.
Gingivitis: Why It Can Be So Confusing!
Gingivitis is one of those oral health concerns that frequently causes a whole lot of confusion. On its own, it’s not a very complex topic: It’s gum inflammation, the very first phase of gum disease!

Our Grand Prairie, TX team would love to help make this topic an easier one, so you know what’s what and can better protect your smile.

When Your Sense Of Taste Goes Haywire!
Your sense of taste is something you rely on, just like your other senses. This one happens to be very obvious to you because you get used to the way certain foods taste. You even crave certain things. So, when you dig into your favorite dish, dessert, or even your daily breakfast cereal and it doesn’t taste the way it normally does, this can immediately cause you serious concern (and frustration, too). We know this is inconvenient but our Grand Prairie, TX team reminds you that when your sense of taste goes haywire, there’s usually a pretty good explanation and your oral health is likely just fine.
