As the month becomes scarier by the day (Halloween is approaching, after all), we think getting a bit frightened by a creepy costume or ghost story is certainly all in good fun. However, you shouldn’t find yourself feeling afraid of dental care rumors that cross your path. Instead, we would like you to remain as positive and motivated as you can regarding your oral health. To make sure smile care continues to feel anything but frightening, we would like to address some scary rumors that are simply untrue!
#1: “You Don’t Need To Floss”
This one might not be too scary for you but it has certainly given us quite a fright! Within recent months, we’ve heard the reports circulating through the media that “you don’t need to floss.” This is just as much a rumor as you probably assumed it was. You do, in fact, need to continue your daily flossing to protect your oral health. No matter what!
#2: “You Can’t Treat Antibiotic Stains”
Have you been feeling sad lately because you’re looking for a way to treat your serious stains (possibly antibiotic stains) on your teeth but someone told you it’s impossible? This is a rumor. While it’s true that traditional teeth whitening might lack the ability to remove the stains, we can certainly give you your white smile back with either bonding or porcelain veneers. Never fear!
#3: “Restorations Hurt”
Providing you with restorations is such a wonderful gift! We can turn serious problems into nothing more than good oral health and we can do it without causing you any discomfort. Whether you need a filling, crown, tooth replacement, or root canal treatment, you can always expect a gentle approach and a visit free of discomfort. (Hint: We offer sedation!).
