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.

Dr. Phams does a great job. I had 3 teeth extracted the same day and he made sure I knew every step along the way and why he was doing it. He took great care to thoroughly explain the after care to me and make sure I understood what to do. He even showed me the problem teeth and explained why he had a harder time extracting them. I love that he takes so much care making sure I know why and what is happening. The assistants are also great and friendly. They made sure I was as comfortable as possible while taking xrays and firmly reminded me why home care is so important and gave me great recommendations on how to improve it. The desk staff are also great and very transparent about what insurance will cover. They also are great at scheduling future appointments and working with outside dental places for referrals. One of the best dentists I've had.

Very thorough and took time to do things many dentists and hygienist never did to give me the best experience and make sure my teeth were extremely clean and healthy. Discussed my concerns and listened to my worries as I have dental anxiety

My first visit. Everyone was extremely nice. My dental tech was Jennifer. I have a small mouth and always have difficulty with the X-rays, but she was kind and patient and helped me get through it! The dentist was great and honest with me. Strongly recommend this office!

Dr. Phams is actually the best dentist that I have had in my life and he is very personable and even though I can't talk most of the time I love that he talks to his assistant and keeps me advised of what is happening next with dental work. Dental work is not fun by any means but you feel like you are cared for when you are there:) Love the front desk staff too, Julie is awesome! Highly recommend!!

Had a few fillings done, the hygienist was horrible at suctioning and stabbing my gums, said it was to keep my tongue out of they way. I've had plenty of dental work done and never experienced that. The filling process was weird and nothing any of my previous fillings were like, does it in layers so took forever. After the grinding down I didn't notice until later how sharp he made a few of my teeth and they felt really misshapen. Worst dental experience I've ever had and I've been to a few due to insurance changes. Will not be coming back.

Dr. Phams is so kind and professional. I've had a real bad experience with dentist and to get me there is hard to do. He is gentle and excellent at everything I've had done. Also I love the explanation s and showing problems with xrays . I cannot say enough good about him....or staff. From girls up front to all the others doing fantastic jobs!!! (I won't say girls as there's an excellent guy too!) Thank you all so much!

Beware this is a large chain of dentists offices!!! There billing is unscrupulous. They just try to drive up the bill and you end up paying out of pocket as the insurance will not pay for procedures.My recommendation is to try one of the private practices in town and give you business and money to a local resident.
