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. Mukhin works extremely fast, but is still very thorough. I love that I can be in and out rather quickly. I also feel that both the dentists and hygienists are very willing to thoroughly explain things to me in laymen's terms.

I've been going to them for 5 years and I had the same gal she's very good very nice but when I came out this last time they just looked at me and said we're not going to accept your insurance anymore because we're dropping your insurance so you'll have to buy our plan well I can't afford to buy their plan so they lost a good customer and it's not my fault that you don't like my insurance company but they said they're cutting United healthcare right off so now I have to try to find another dental company so I feel ripped off

I am over 65 and WAS afraid of Dentists until Dr. Mike and his team. He repaired my teeth as an artist would paint. Beautiful, painless work. The whole team is awesome.

Got into the chair right at my appointment time. Hygienist was pleasant and courteous. Most important is that she laughed at all my jokes. She explained the process as she went along and let me know what she was finding. She recommended a follow up appointment on some previous work done by the dentist. Recommend this office and its staff.

My hygienist did a phenomenal job. Carried out her tasks with care and explained everything better than anyone else ever has for dental care, what to watch out for and why. The fill in dentist was also great. I had never seen him before and he had a calm and caring demeanor.

My daughter and I have been going to Midwest Dental for 3 years now. Dr. Mike is, by far, my favorite dentist ever! I no longer have anxiety about dental visits. Jocelyn has been my hygienist and she's great. We get along well and she is great at her job. I have only good things to say about this office.

They won't even do a cleaning because of my high blood pressure. Won't work on my teeth either. They expect me to have good blood pressure before they do any work. Like I have control of that. The dentist did shock testing on my teeth also. I heard the dentist in his back room laughing about it. Freaked me out
