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. Moltz is an outstanding dentist. For over 30 years my Mom, and over 20 for me, saw Dr. Moltz. His work has held up thru the test of time for both of us. Other dentist's (after I moved away) always marvel at the outstanding dental work in my mouth and inquire who did the work. That is the highest compliment you can get from your peers. Recently I traveled for an appointment to see Dr. Moltz to get a second opinion at Midwest Dental and was happy to hear I don't need to have any work done at this time. We just love Dr. Moltz for taking good care of us for many years.

November 2020 - Billing Manager threatened collections on a bill that they never submitted an insurance claim for. When the insurance company confirmed there was no claim , I called back. The billing manager refused to resubmit and demanded payment. To this day, the claim was never resubmitted.

I went here once for my dental needs when Dr. Holz was there because my girlfriend recommended it and had raving reviews. She had nothing but good things to say about her dentist so I decided to go with her one day for a cleaning and the staff was absolutely awesome. Not a fan of going to the dentist on a general hole but it was a good experience overall. She unfortunately went recently for a cleaning and had a bad experience for the first time in almost 20 years due to the new dentist Dr. Moltz. He dropped her as a patient because she advocated for herself and he tried to walk all over her. She was appropriate and polite towards him but apparently he didn't like a woman telling him the word NO. I am no longer a patient with them because I will NEVER give them a cent of my money again. Hope you don't either because that's all this new doc wants....

Dr. Moltz is a conniving corrupt man that only wants your money and will lie to you about "laws" to get it. Forget advocating for yourself, he'll drop you as a patient because treating you truly isn't his practice, scamming money is. Careful

The new dentist Dr. Moltz lies through his teeth...He tries to scam people into doing procedures/X-rays that they don't need OR ASK FOR....He's profoundly one of the most disrespectful, dishonest and ill-mannered men that I've met....do yourselves a favor and go to a different dentist...

DO NOT COME HERE! Straight up, the new doc doesn't care about you or your dental needs, he just wants your money and will fight... Yes he will fight with you to get what he wants done. Don't ever forget to advocate for yourself especially if you're going to this doctor. Dr. Moltz is a shady, unpleasant and unkind man due to his lying, disappointing display of common sense and willingness to be respectful towards his patients. A foolish and unwise man.

Left my appointment absolutely furious due to the new doctor insulting me by thinking I wouldn't look into his lies. He tells his patients that its Illinois's law to get x-rays every year to 2 years on your teeth... That's a bunch of bull and he knew it but yet lied to his patients face. Morally wrong and clearly unintelligent if he can't even be honest with the people he's treating *cough cough* taking money from. People like that are called crooks, scam artists, a con man. I wonder if all woman threaten his manhood so much where he drops them as patients because a woman put him in check.

Not everyone loves going to the dentist but I didn't mind at all when Dr. Holz was my Dentist because he was fantastic!! Went here for years but the new doctor Dr. Moltz is the COMPLETE opposite. I highly suggest you don't go here or you may been racking up a lot of money that not all insurances cover OR Dr. Moltz might sit there belittling you. Learned that the hard way....just a heads up.

I have been a patient of Dr. Holz for over 5 years now. This is the first dentist out of many of my dentists over the years that really cares about my dental care. He has always been very accommodating when I have needed urgent dental work needed. I wish I had him 30 years ago as my Dentist.
