If your life is generally busy, it’s pretty easy to let preventive dental care slip through the cracks. Between work and family commitments, the things that aren’t screaming for immediate attention usually get pushed to the back burner. So, before the summer ends and the even busier fall begins, consider scheduling dental checkups for the whole family. Not only will you be able to check it off your list and not think about it again for six more months, but you’ll also be starting the new season with fresh smiles for everyone!

When several dental issues affect a person’s daily life, it’s not always clear what the next step should be. Maybe a few teeth have shifted, others are worn down or missing, and chewing isn’t as comfortable as it used to be. They might be brushing and flossing every day but still feel like their oral health is falling behind.
You brush, floss, and try to stay on top of your oral health. But even with a solid routine, seemingly harmless habits can sabotage your progress. Everyday actions you do without thinking can slowly wear down your teeth and gums. From how you snack to what you do when you’re stressed, your choices can affect your smile in ways you might not expect.
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.
