COVID-19 has impacted all our lives in many ways we could have never imagined. Protocols have been implemented to help protect you at your next visit. Please see our protocol pages. 

Dentistry has come along way from the days when dentist would just drill out an entire tooth surface to get access to the cavity and hopefully prevent further tooth destruction. Today we know a lot more about the chemistry of cavity formation and so a relatively new product to North America has been added to our tool box to help fight this disease. 

The strongest tissue in the body is the enamel that covers the tooth. It is rock solid but it is still capable of breaking. I have seen an increase in tooth fracture over the last several months and I wonder if it can be linked to the pandemic.

Teeth straightening or tooth alignment is one of the most common treatments dentists suggest to improve your bite, speech, smile, periodontal health, and improve your overall confidence. However, since teeth straightening can be a long and expensive process, many people have begun to indulge in do-it-yourself tooth straightening techniques. In fact, there are several systems on the market, discussing ways to straighten teeth for less than what a professional can provide. Remember, a professional has spent years learning tooth movement, bone anatomy, and smile design that a non-professional has not mastered.

Let's all do our part to fight COVID-19.

Not sure how you feel about wearing masks in public. For the next 2-3 year experts say this is the new normal. So lets all do our part and keep the number of COVID-19 cases low. As we see a surge in cases in countries where the restrictions have been relaxed I feel that we can all wear masks to help keep our community healthy.
