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.

Front office Staff is friendly and on top of things. Dr. Wolfinger is very personable and does a great job as do the hygienists. Couldn't ask for a better dental experience.

They are great with little kids! They explain what they are doing and go at the child's pace to make them comfortable, which means it gets easier each visit! Only down fall is the scheduling days/times is very limited.

I am glad that I researched different dentists in the Fox Cities, and that I was able to find Midwest Dental in Sherwood. I truly feel my smile is whiter and I am more confident. Dr. Wolfinger and Katie are amazing! The place is immaculate, and I look out for cleanliness because of my healthcare background. You will not be disappointed by this Dental Clinic

I arrived with much trepidation because it has been almost 6 years since I saw a dentist. I at one time was a once a year person or even every 6 months made it a point to have a cleaning and NOW!!! I was enthusiastically greeting and "made to feel welcome" by the receptionist - SUE! There was a homey feeling and she was so warm and friendly. When I went back and met my hygienist, Jessica, we discovered we knew each other which really made me feel so comfortable. I can' say enough about Jessica! She was so knowledgeable but also so friendly, reassuring, FUN, professional, so competent in the service she provided (personally I LOVED my last hygienist, BUT Jessica outdid any hygienist I have ever had with the cleaning I received!) I have a lot of plaque build up naturally that is why a 6 month check up in the past was vital. She cleaned up 6 years of neglect and smoothed out (this was the first time I have EVER had someone do this) that area which is rough after a cleaning from that much plague build up. I feel FANTASTIC and luckily no other work was needed. Dr. Megan, the dentist , is a RARE FIND! Although she is a professional, she is accessible and makes servicing you her top priority!! She has an openness about her that makes you feel you can freely talk and are respected. Dr. Megan's whole demeanor is one that makes YOU FEEL you are important and of value! I was so PLEASANTLY SURPRISED with the care I received from her. All in all, I would - HANDS DOWN - recommend the Midwest Dental Office in Sherwood. Be sure to go online if you are a new patient and review their services as well as copying their coupon for 1st time NEW Patients which helped me tremendously receive outstanding service for $89! I will be a returning patient because of the service in EVERY ASPECT I received there and the respect I was given.

My name is Tom Wozniak. My previous dentist retired a year ago. So I needed to find a new dentist. I did a search, and wanted to find a dental office near my home in Kaukauna. I called the Midwest Dental office in Sherwood. On my first visit, I was greeted by a very friendly staff named Sue. That day I knew that I was at the right Dental care office for me. Tara, one of the dental assistants, has been very professional and knowledgeable. Her her experience and patient interaction shows in her work. Also, the other staff deserves an honorable mention. Dr. Megan Wolfinger has done a great job building a fantastic staff. Sincerely, Tom Wozniak

Amanda is a very gentle, compassionate and thorough dentist. She was even willing to see me before business hours. I am very satisfied with the staff as well.

I had multiple fillings done as a child/preteen. All of them have cracked and the tooth has rotted anyways. He refused to let me mother in the room despite my cries and screams. He was extremely rough handed with me and traumatized me since. I am now 25 and rarely get dental work due to my phobia created by my experiences with Dr. Schultz.
