Frequently Asked Questions

Flossing gets rid of the bacteria your toothbrush can’t get to. If you do not floss, plaque remains between your teeth and eventually it hardens into tartar.

  • Always spend two to three minutes brushing your teeth, do not brush too hard, floss at least once a day and cut down on sugary foods. Brush after a meal or at least rinse your mouth with water. You can also chew sugarless gum after meals. Lastly, visit your dentist regularly for routine checks.

  • Yes, we accept most insurance and as a courtesy to our patients, we file insurance for all services rendered.
