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.

After haven't been seen by a dentist in well over a decade, Dr. Arts was thorough and patient, explained my options clearly and well to me. It was surprisingly a great experience! Thank you Dr. Arts and Midwest Dental.

I informed them that a filling had to be repaired as a priority. When I got there they told me the could not fix the filling, and I would have to wait a year. This was an emergency situation, and the did not to prevent further decay. The staff including the dentist where rude, downplayed the issue, and blamed me. They wanted me to keep coming back for more appointment so they could keep billing me. My over well being was not their concern.

I have had bad experiences with other dentists in the past, but Midwest Dental has done an excellent job. They are always kind and do a great job at making your dental appointments pleasant. Everyone always is super happy to greet me and are never rude. I feel like my mouth is taken care of there. I would not consider leaving Midwest Dental ever. This is the best dentist I've ever had.

Second time being there for teeth cleaning, this was second time being told that I had pockets in my gum line of 1 tooth. If not treated it could continue to erode the jawbone. Then I'd loose it & loose some chewing area. Stormie preformed the extra deep cleaning after numbing topically & locally for possible pain. She also had explained the procedure well. No surprise! This is 24 hours later & no pain, slept good. No concerns. I go back in a month for follow up & X-rays if needed. Procedure was reasonably priced & hopefully I won't need an oral specialist referrral

It might seem like a little thing, but the warm, enthusiastic greeting from the receptionist was just the first of many positive experiences during our visit to Dr Arts' Midwest Dental office. Every step in the process (x-ray, cleaning, exam, billing and setting our next appointment) was handled efficiently and professionally. We highly recommend Midwest Dental

Positive and or negative reviews are a way for the office to improve. I made an appointment to have my tooth looked at. I came to my appointment and was told " I see you are here for a crown?" The dentist came in and proceeded to tell me " we discussed this at your last appointment and you were given a plan of care. That was a year ago! It would be different if Amy the receptionist manager had informed me over the phone That I was being scheduled for a crown appointment, than to just show up and be surprised. At no time during my negative review did I say I wasn't returning to this office! By giving an honest review this is the response I get from the receptionist Amy....The photo below is the voicemail I received....

I appreciate the friendliness of the staff and the location of the setting works better for me than where I previously went in Oshkosh.

This is the best dentist I have ever been to. Very well organized, efficient, happy, and helpful staff. I learned so many helpful hygiene tips I had never been told before. I never felt rushed, unheard, or unseen. I would recommend them to anyone.

I was so impressed going to Midwest Dental. I was very nervous about going to the dentist but the dentist and the person who worked on my teeth were fantastic. They made me feel comfortable not afraid and worked with me on everythinge. They kept me informed of what they were doing and what was expected to be done and it's was a fantastic experience. I would definitely go back and send other people to go there.
