We’re Celebrating 25 Years Of Smiles!
Smiles Dental Clinics formed 25 years ago on October 6. We can hardly believe it’s been that long! Now, it’s time to celebrate this milestone.
Call Right Away If You Experience A Dental Emergency!
If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, don’t panic. Our experienced emergency dental team is here to guide you. You can call our office for expert dental advice, especially in an emergency situation. We have same-day appointments to ensure you get the treatment you need as quickly as possible.
September Is National Gum Care Month
We hope our patients are caring for their gums year round, but that can be difficult to do if they’ve never been told how. Nearly half of all adults over the age of 30 have some form of gum disease, so this month we’d like to discuss how to properly take care of your gums.
When Was Your Last Appointment?
Do you remember when you last saw us? It’s important to keep up with your dentist visits for the sake of your health. If your visits are uneventful, that’s a good thing! But, don’t let that trick you into thinking you can get away with skipping your next checkup. Dental problems can pop up quickly, and you may not even realize it until you’re in real pain. Visiting us every six months is your best defense against dental disease.
Kids Won’t Brush Their Teeth? Try These Suggestions!
Since the invention of the toothbrush, the struggle has always been the same: kids just don’t want to brush their teeth. If your child has been resisting the call of fluoride and floss, you’re not alone. At least 75% of parents claim their child doesn’t want to brush and doesn’t know why it’s important. Why are so many parents struggling, and what can we do to fix this?
Are Your Teeth As White As You Want Them To Be?
You deserve a smile that reflects how you feel inside. We know you’re brushing and flossing like a pro, but even that can’t cut through the years of accumulated stains and the effects of time.
5 Habits That Harm Your Teeth
Brushing and flossing are essential, and avoiding sugar definitely helps—but some of the biggest threats to your smile come from the small things you do without even realizing it. At Smile Dental Clinics in Phoenix, AZ, we help patients spot the hidden habits that quietly wear down teeth.
Tooth Pain That Won’t Go Away?
Tooth pain can be frustrating and, sometimes, easy to brush off. Maybe it comes and goes. Maybe it only hurts when you chew. But when a tooth just doesn’t feel quite right, it could be your body’s way of letting you know something deeper is going on. In many cases, that pain means the inner part of your tooth—called the pulp—may be inflamed or infected. When that happens, a root canal may be the best way to stop the pain, remove the infection, and save your natural tooth.
5 Things Your Tooth Pain Could Mean
Tooth pain can be more than just uncomfortable. It’s often a sign that something isn’t right. At Smile Dental Clinics in Phoenix, AZ, we know how frustrating and disruptive dental pain can be. Whether the discomfort is dull or sharp, occasional or constant, your toothache could point to a number of different causes.
A Smile Worth Sharing
Now and then, a patient comes along who reminds us why we do what we do. LeeAnn is one of those patients. She first came in for a dental implant consultation, unsure of what was possible. She had been through a lot and was worried about how her dental health might affect her overall well-being. More than anything, she wanted to feel better—but like many patients, she wasn’t sure how to make it all work.
