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 sevice from Renee. If it wasn't for the dentist, we would be seeking care elsewhere.

Great experience every time. From the efficiency and kindness of the receptionists to the expert dentistry of Dr Kholoki whose concern for comfort and well being of me is the best I've experienced. Highly recommend.

The actual dentists deserve 5 stars, they are amazing and always make sure you are comfortable. But this morning Renee called me to schedule an appointment due to some pain I was having. And she was extremely rude on the phone. I wanted to call back to see if I can get in a different day, but I do not want to deal with her again. She's the first receptionist here that I've had a problem with. The rest are usually so friendly.

Everyone was so kind to my daughter when she had some issues with a tooth yesterday. I've never heard someone sound so much like they were having fun as they got a tooth numbed, etc. Thank you!

The staff at this office are wonderful. They all are very kind and accommodating and actually seem to care about your needs. I've never once had a bad experience, in fact my last filling was the most easy and pain free one I've ever had. I'd highly recommend this office to anyone and I have.

I have had to have several procedures done over the past year and I can't say a bad thing about this office. Everyone is very friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable. I can't single anyone out because they're all great !

Watch out for their potential bait and switch techniques. I received a document that indicated a cost of $2,900 or $4,000. I called to confirm price and was told that I would have to pay the $2,900. When I went in for the work, I was told cost was $4,000. They could not explain why I was told I would be paying the lower price when I made the appointment. This was the 2nd day I had to take off as they abruptly canceled the first appointment with no warning.

Will be leaving this practice and never going back. After years of being a loyal patient, they were not willing to own up to a mistake the dentist made on my husband's crown that just fell out after just months of getting it. Insurance wouldn't cover replacement crown, and they expected us to cover the entire cost...a crown should not just fall out like that, obviously subpar work by the dentist Dr. Zelko, and they were not willing to work with us . We wanted to negotiate, willing to pay even half the cost, etc. but nope, no negotiating. It's sad that they won't take accountability for their mistakes. So we're done with this place.

I've been going to Midwest Dental in Pewaukee for about 7 years and they've always treated me good, in and out quickly and Dr. Zelko is understanding and easy to talk to, I've had good experiences with the staff and dental assistants as well Highly recommended if you live in the area and are looking for a new dentist.
