Mouth and Dental

Learn about mouth and dental health

If you've ever had a toothache, you know how much it can hurt. The pain from a cold sore, a canker sore, or an aching jaw can also be hard to deal with. It's important to know when you should see a dentist or a doctor before a problem gets worse. Our topics can help you learn what to do about problems with your mouth and teeth, and they can give you tips on preventing these kinds of problems.

Due to the threat of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus), we are taking precautionary measures to protect our staff and patients. We are implementing a temporary NO VISITOR policy at this time. Only patients or patients and their guardians will be allowed into the office. Please note, this is not to inconvenience anyone! The virus is a very real threat and it is essential that we stay healthy in order to provide needed care for our patients. If you are sick, we ask that you CALL the office to speak with a nurse before you come in. The nurse will provide specific instructions for you. Please DO NOT enter the office if you are sick (upper respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, or flu like symptoms). We are closely monitoring the situation and will update you as circumstances change. Thank you for your understanding!!
