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.

From the moment I walked in until when I left, this was by far the kindest and most understanding dentist office I have ever been to. Absolutely no judgement, pure understanding, and they listened to all of my concerns and helped put me at ease. I will probably actually start scheduling appointments because it will be here. Dr Davis was amazing. I left smiling!

Dr. Davis is a Class Act Dentist!! Best dental experience ever!!! Went in for third opinion, was told filling non repairable 2x and needed removed and or partial, after our consult & several ex rays Dr. Davis informed me she believes in restoration, hence teeth restored along with my self confidence and ability to enjoy my food again!! I cried happy tears on way to work thanking God for putting Merit Dental into my search feed!!! ALSO GOT AN APPOINTMENT EXTREMELY FAST!!!

The office has had quite a few turnovers in personnel; however, I was pleasantly pleased that front desk, dental hygienist, and dentist were all considerate, professional, thorough, and intentions were to assure me that they cared about my comfort level and any issues. Thank you.

My husband and I are both patients, and we love Dr. Stein!! We couldn't be more pleased. She is an outstanding dentist, and we trust her implicitly (just as much as we trusted Dr. Campbell). Dr. Stein is kind, thoughtful, professional, intelligent and meticulous. We are so thankful for her!
