Summer is the time for outdoor sports and you can protect your teeth, cheeks, gums and lips with a low-cost mouth guard. It could save you from a knocked out or chipped tooth, and it will prevent you from grinding your teeth during the big game.
No really, just dont. Weve all seen someone open a bottle with their teeth. An amazing feat? Nope, but a great way to cause micro fractures in your teeth. Using your teeth to rip open potato chip bags or to crush ice are also no nos.
The short answer is no. You most likely cannot sunburn your teeth. Shwew! Your lips on the other hand can sunburn. In fact, your lips might be the most susceptible to sunburn. Its important not to rely on regular sunscreen to protect your lips, choose a lip balm with a minimum of SPF 15. It is designed for your lips, and it will stick better. And just like with sunscreen, remember to reapply it every couple hours.
There are lots of reasons to smile all summer long. Evidence suggests that smiling reduces stress and helps your heart. So show those teeth! Brush twice a day, floss daily and smile big. You'll feel better when you do.

Very rude receptionist. I called as a new patient to schedule an appointment and she talked to me as if I could not afford their services when u have great insurance. Very rude, will not be using their services.

Dr. Mary and Dr. Ron both did an amazing job of fixing a cracked and broken molar during a recent visit in Decatur. A quick phone call and they worked me into their already busy schedule. They were very patient, and they set me at ease like no dentist has ever before. I was in and out in just under an hour, and I've never dealt with a friendlier pair of amazing people. They REALLY care about the person they work on. If I could give them TEN STARS I would do so in a heartbeat. Cole Family Dentistry is the absolute best there is!!!

Dr. Ron and Dr. Mary have been my dentists since the former doctor retired. I have gotten to know these two doctors very well over the years. I remember having a root canal done, 1 of many by Dr. Mary, and to get a personal phone call after the procedure to check how I was doing meant allot. Dr. Ron and Dr. Mary are great doctors who continue to learn and use the most newest technology's in dental care. They are also very generous to the community by hosting a free dental exam day for children who don't have dental care. They support there local community also. They also served in our military which gets my vote, because I am also a veteran. They offer a warm and friendly atmosphere every time that I have an appointment. So if your looking for a dentist that really cares about your dental health, then go to them.
