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.

The areas are clean and the folks are always friendly and professional. I always enjoy the fact the employees aren't pushing add-on treatment after add-on treatment like some other providers. Overall, I have been very happy.

Yearly clean and check up and things were done efficiently and quickly! For many years I choose to go once a year as my plaque build up is little and they respect my decision.

Dr.Allen is great! I used to live near the Appleton location but have since moved to Green Bay. Even though I could change locations to somewhere closer I wouldn't even consider that. The drive is worth it for this clinic

Had a great first visit, despite it being a last minute emergency visit as a new patient! I woke up in the night with terrible tooth pain from a bad bite on a crown (done by another dentist 8 months before). Called at 1am, left a voice message asking if there was any chance I could be seen the next day, and they worked me into a cancelation. Very kind, very professional, clean and relaxing atmosphere. She identified and fixed my bite issue in no time and by the next day I felt better than I had in 8 months.

My hygienist had a great personality and never made me feel bad about my need to floss better. Had a lot of great tips and compliments about what I was doing well! They did a great job with the new covid protocols!

The entire Staff was very welcoming and attentive! Dr. Lee was very knowledgeable about my dental needs and wants. She has an excellent "bed side" manner! Her assistant (I apologize I do not remember her name) was very knowledgeable as well. She was able to get my x-rays faster than I've ever seen or experienced happen. She had an understanding and caring approach. Thank you so much for your compassionate care! I look forward to my upcoming appointments.

I HIGHLY recommend Midwest dental/ appleton east! They are extremely friendly and personable! I went in for my first crown, extremely anxious and nervous! They were so helpful with making me feel comfortable and made sure before they preceded that I knew exactly what was going to happen and always made sure I was okay! Specifically, Dr. Shalini Achanti and her assistant Kim! They were amazing! I'm so grateful for them, they made the whole experience so much better!! Again, if your debating on whether or not to go to Midwest dental-appleton east location, do! They are beyond amazing! Thanks again Dr. Achanti and Kim!

Just got my front lower tooth filed down a bit cosmetically because it was taller than the others and it bothered me. They did such a good job and it was so quick and painless! Thanks Midwest :) Very happy with how it looks and feels.
