Excellent service! I had terrible anxiety about dentist offices from a poor experience when I was a kid. I ended up not going to the dentist for many years as an adult, resulting in many problems. Ultimately, one day, I had a dental emergency and found Bridgetown Dental, who got me in immediately. I had so much fear about dentist offices that I was tearful during the initial consult. However, Dr. Kaady never shamed me for my worry. He was kind, explained everything about the procedure, and took the time to make me feel like he cared about my teeth and experience. I totally survived the cavity-filling! He asked if I would return (I had a lot more cavities) and start regular cleanings. Five years later, I am still a patient here! Valerie, who cleans my teeth, is wonderful! Everyone here is exceptional, professional, and friendly. I decline to go anywhere else. Bridgetown Dental cured my dentist office anxiety, and I highly recommend them!
Ever thought about your teeth while munching on an apple? You should! Nature’s snacks are not just a treat for your taste buds. They’re also your smile’s best friends. You can supercharge your oral health and enjoy a healthier smile with incorporating more fruits and vegetables into your diet.
These healthier snack choices will:
- Act Like Natural Tooth Cleansers – Crunchy fruits and veggies act like nature’s toothbrushes, scrubbing away plaque as you chew.
- Boost Saliva – Chewing stimulates saliva production, your mouth’s built-in cleaning system.
- Nutrient Powerhouses – Fruits and vegetables are packed with vitamins and minerals essential for strong teeth and healthy gums.
Consider incorporating leafy greens like spinach and kale to strengthen your tooth enamel. Crunchy favorites like apples, carrots, and celery will keep your teeth clean. Incorporate citrus fruits in moderation for help with saliva flow.
