We Care About Your Health!

The best way to maintain your oral health, in addition to visiting the dentist at least twice a year, is to have healthy hygiene habits at home. This involves brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing daily, and maintaining a healthy diet. At Springer Dental Care in Elkhart, Millersburg, Crossroads, Keystone, and Bremen, IN, our dentists believe in empowering patients to make healthy decisions by providing them with the information they need.

Snoring & Sleep Apnea

Snoring and sleep apnea are not only disruptive to those around you, but they can be detrimental to your health. Sleep apnea is a disorder in which you stop breathing for short periods of time while you sleep and then wake up many times throughout the night (you may not even remember doing so) to catch your breath. This usually results in a snoring sound. Because you are waking up so many times, you are unable to get a good night’s sleep, causing fatigue, memory difficulties, and trouble focusing and concentrating. It can also cause irritability, morning headaches, or high blood pressure.

By providing you with an oral device made to open your airways while you sleep, a dentist can help decrease the symptoms of snoring and sleep apnea, and allow you to get a better night’s rest. If you suspect you may have sleep apnea, speak with your dentist to determine the best treatment plan.

Digital X-Rays

X-rays are important because they can help us discover developing dental issues that we are unable to see during a routine exam. Therefore, by allowing us to detect problems early before they are painful, we create a better chance for success when we begin treatment.

Digital X-ray machines are made of state-of-the-art equipment that are extremely safe to use, as they greatly reduce the patient’s exposure to radiation compared to old technology. Plus, they are quick and clear and can be stored on or sent via the computer.

The Importance of Fluoride

Fluoride is a mineral that helps strengthen your teeth. It also helps prevent cavities from forming. Fluoride is usually added to the water we drink, but sometimes this isn’t enough to give your teeth the amount they need to build up enamel. That’s why it is important to get a toothpaste that contains fluoride. How much fluoride you need varies from person to person, but if you are more exposed to tooth decay, for example, because your diet includes a lot of sugary products, you will need more fluoride. However, you need to be careful to not have too much fluoride, which can also be harmful to your teeth. Speak to your dentist to determine how much fluoride you or your child should be receiving.

Pediatric Dentistry

Children should begin seeing the dentist for regular dental exams by the time they are one year old. Children are especially vulnerable to cavities and decay, as it can be hard for a parent to thoroughly brush their teeth and children usually don’t brush as thoroughly as they should. Pediatric dentistry involves taking care of a child’s teeth while making them as relaxed and comfortable as possible. We want going to the dentist to be a fun experience! We can provide sealants to minimize the risk of decay as well as provide fluoride treatments to help protect your child’s enamel. By bringing your child to the dentist at a young age, you are setting them up for a lifetime of oral health and healthy dental habits.

FAQs

Are sweets and ice really bad for my teeth?

Yes. Sweets and foods with acid, like candy and soda, could stick to teeth and lead to cavities. Smoking and chewing tobacco can cause oral cancer and gum disease. While teeth are strong enough to chew ice and tear open packages, this can break them and stress your jaws. Gritting or grinding down on teeth when you’re stressed may crack them. Biting your nails is another bad habit. It pulls your jaw out of position and changes how your teeth fit together.

How can I fix my teeth and smile?

Caps and crowns cover problem teeth by surrounding them in a material that looks like a real tooth. They use the root and inside of the tooth as a base to build on, then attach it with special cement. Veneers and bonding improve your smile by sticking a layer of smoother and whiter materials like porcelain or resin to the natural tooth. Talk with your dentist about which fix is right for you.

What’s the best way to whiten my teeth?

Stores sell many whitening products, and you can get take-home gels and trays from your dentist, but neither is as strong as procedures done in a dental office. If you want to try an over-the-counter whitener, look for one with an ADA seal. Check with your dentist for advice before you buy, especially if you have dental work or dark stains. Also, don’t keep using them, or you could damage your teeth.

Do teeth need fluoride?

Fluoride helps make teeth strong and prevents decay. The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Dental Association (ADA), and the CDC all agree that kids should use fluoride toothpaste for brushing, taking care not to swallow it. Adults benefit from using fluoride to protect their teeth, too.

Are dental X-rays safe and needed?

Medical and dental experts study the use of X-rays and set limits for their safety. Your dentist should take as few as possible. Expect to get them during a first exam after not seeing a dentist for a while. This helps check tooth and gum health. If you have gum disease, the dentist may want pictures every six months. For regular check-ups, yearly X-rays are acceptable, or it could depend on your dentist’s plan.
