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.

I get confused with the appointment set up here, they scheduled me on a particular day, and everything was okay the staff was friendly-she set me up on an appointment date. Then when it was the appointment date, she said my name did not show up and said they are no longer taking new patients--which is very confusing for me. I hope they will do better in receiving calls and be sure that they saved the full name of the caller to avoid frustration and confusion.

Dr. Julia Ariola was the only reason i kept going to Mondovi dental. Otherwise this office is often canceling appointments and resheduling months later with little notice, often the day before. When I called on Friday 7/29/2022 to request an appointment for two crowns for my implants I was informed that Dr. Ariola was leaving the pratice. I was very concerned as Dr. Ariola had been the one to originally suggested the implants. The woman that answered the phone when I called, her name is Leslie, told me she would reach out to another dentist in another Mondovi office to see if the other Dentist was available and she would call me back on Monday 8/1/2022. Leslie never called back and when I called her she acted confused and then flat out denied that she said she would call another dentist. I will not do business with Mondovi dental in the future as lying is not an acceptable way to do business.

I was impressed with the welcoming staff and professional care. When our previous dentist sent the wrong X-rays, they took new ones at no charge to us. And being an artist, I loved the decor.

Dr. Ariola is great. Be wary of Mondovi's billing. I suspect this is an issue at the corporate level, not this practice in particular. Their invoices are very confusing, it feels intentional. They will send a bill to you before they bill your insurance. I received a bill after my first visit for x-rays because they had 'estimated' that my insurance would not cover them. When I received the bill I logged on to my insurance portal to see that my insurance hadn't even received a claim from Mondovi yet. I'm glad I waited to pay it because when they billed my insurance, my insurance covered it in full. I have not encountered any other doctors who bill like this, but it seems scammy.

Excellent. I'd missed a few due to Covid worries, so I was a little concerned. They were great. The hygienist was wonderful. Very helpful. Always kept me informed. Everyone was friendly. It was a bit late, but that's the only negative thing I can say, and that's not unusual these days.

I went in for a first time procedure, and I was a little apprehensive. The staff were extremely professional and courteous. I was made to feel at ease. They did a fantastic job, and I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

Dr. Ariola and her staff are absolutely great. I was looking for a new dentist and I have found a treasure. I have to give a shout out to Leslie too who is extremely helpful and kind. I am completely dentalphobic and this was a warm, professional and most of all kind place to go.
