If you’ve been thinking about straightening your teeth with clear aligners, you might be wondering what the process is actually like. Jordan recently came to Tomase Dental Care for her first set, and her experience gives a great behind-the-scenes look at how simple and comfortable it can be.
You might think it’s just stress. Or that you slept funny. But if you’re dealing with recurring jaw pain, headaches, or neck tension, your jaw joint might be the source of the problem. TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint—the hinge that connects your jaw to your skull. When this joint becomes strained or misaligned, it can lead to a wide range of uncomfortable symptoms that affect your daily life.
When you think about straightening your teeth, your mind probably goes right to how your smile will look—and there’s no doubt that’s a big perk. But what many people don’t realize is that proper alignment can do much more than boost your appearance. A straighter smile can also have a lasting impact on your oral health. At Tomase Dental Care in Toledo, OH, we offer Invisalign® clear aligners to help you achieve a straighter, healthier smile. Here are five ways straight teeth can support better oral health:
A healthy smile depends on more than just good brushing. It takes a mix of smart habits at home and consistent care from your dental team to keep your teeth and gums in great shape. Since May is National Dental Care Month, it’s the perfect time to check in on your routine and consider why those everyday habits and regular dental visits matter more than you might think.
The thick sweaters are put away, the days are longer, and spring is in full bloom. It’s a season of fresh starts, making it the perfect time to refresh your smile. If you put off cosmetic dental work this past winter, now is the time to take action—before wedding season, graduations, and summer vacations fill your calendar.
If you’ve been considering clear aligners, now is the perfect time to take the next step. Our limited-time offer of $1,000 off ClearCorrect clear aligners won’t be available much longer, and we don’t want you to miss this opportunity to transform your smile with a comfortable, discreet solution.
Your teeth work hard every day, but over time, they can take a hit—whether from an accidental chip, gradual wear, or decay. When a tooth becomes too weak to support itself, a dental crown can provide the strength and protection it needs while keeping your smile looking natural.
Snoring, morning headaches, and feeling exhausted no matter how much sleep you get—these might seem like minor inconveniences, but they could be signs of sleep apnea. This common condition causes repeated pauses in breathing throughout the night, preventing deep, restful sleep.
When you think about staying healthy, your teeth might not be the first thing that comes to mind—but they should be! The truth is, what’s happening in your mouth can have a profound impact on the rest of your body. From your heart to your lungs (and even your pregnancy journey), taking care of your oral health is essential for your overall wellness.
When it comes to whitening your teeth, there’s no shortage of options out there. While at-home kits can help brighten your smile, professional whitening takes it to the next level, delivering stunning, long-lasting results you’ll love.
