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.

Absolutely awful. My husband was in excruciating pain, missed a day of work, I was able to get him in and all they said is that they couldn't pull the wisdom tooth causing pain. They wouldn't prescribe anything or do anything for him. His normal dentist was put on vacation and couldn't get him in for another week so we tried this office. Mistake and waste of money.

Hi, I am 70 years young and have many great dental people in my life. I must say the crew at Midwest in Stevens Point is one of the best. They always try to work around my busy days. Which is a plus, plus for me. The happy faces that meet me through their doors tell me I am in the right place. When I leave I know I have had best the care. I thank all of you.

I have gone to this dentist for the last 5 years. The last time there they would not clean my teeth unless they could do the ultra sonic cleaning. I had three sensitive teeth due to crowns. I left because they wouldn't clean any of my teeth. I just went to Crowe Family Dental and they told me I have some periodontal disease and need to take care of it. For the love of god why didn't Midwest tell me I had the start of that. Don't go there. They don't care about you. You are just a number there.

My 1st appointment with Midwest Dental when smoothly. The staff there was friendly, courteous, very professional, and knowledgeable. I only had x-rays, and exam but at this point I am extremely satisfied with Midwest Dental Staff, DDS, and Assistants.

The office manager, Deb, and the office assistant, Dawn, really both very friendly. Deb worked patiently with me to help me understand my new insurance policy. She really knows her stuff and went above and beyond! The dentist, Dr. Levitt, and dental hygienist, Katie, were both very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Everyone was upfront about costs. I have no hesitation about sticking with this office. Great job, guys!

Everyone was so sweet and nice! Especially with my previous dental office being a bit difficult. Getting the print out about my benefits and what all was covered was an unexpected, but delightful surprise! That was such a thorough and thoughtful thing to do, and I really appreciated that!

My first visit today!!! Wow! Great staff. Deb at front is great & so helpful! Katie dental asst. & Nicole my Hygienist are great. Dr. Folchert is awesome; guy; very down to earth & friendly. I'd recommend this Midwest location to anyone. I moved from one MW Dental closer to me to this site. Again Kudos to All (even if Dr. Folchert is a 'Husker').

You guys made coming to a new dentist office easy and as painless as possible. 100% planning to come back in 6 months. Y'all are awesome. The dental hygienist I worked worth was great! I dislike coming to the dentist a little bit less now. Thank you!

Everyone is always incredibly kind when I am there. They are understanding when money is tight and always walk me through options that fit with my insurance. Overall I've had a wonderful experience here and they've helped me get over my dentist phobia!
