Dr. Beck and the rest of our team do all we can to make sure you have high quality dental care, plenty of treatment options, and the knowledge to make the best decision for your healthy teeth and gums. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But we aren\u2019t the only ones who can help you achieve your best oral health. You are an integral part in that endeavor. It\u2019s a responsibility we share together, and our team is happy to help you in every way we can. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the ways we can do that is with today\u2019s blog post! We\u2019re talking about how you and our Columbia dental team can work together to help <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">prevent dental problems<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before they become serious oral and overall health issues. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s look at how you can prevent problems with your smile every single day and how we are here to help you do it!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Prevention Starts At Home <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone can and should be in control of their oral and overall health. Good oral hygiene is one of the ways you\u2019re in the driver\u2019s seat of your smile every single day. The ADA, American Dental Association, suggests a hygiene regimen to ensure a healthy mouth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, you should brush your teeth twice a day with an ADA approved, soft-bristle toothbrush. They also suggest brushing your teeth for two minutes each time. How would you time yourself in a way that was fast and easy? Maybe it\u2019s your smartphone timer? Maybe it\u2019s by playing your favorite song while you brush?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, the ADA tells us to floss once daily. Studies have shown, shockingly, that only one in five people claim to floss each day. That\u2019s pretty surprising considering how important it is to your healthy teeth and gums. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flossing does what a toothbrush can\u2019t. It dislodges food particles from smaller, hard to reach places in your mouth. You can do this in the morning, at night, before you brush, or even after you brush. The point is that you do it at least once.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An added habit that will help prevent dental problems caused by harmful bacteria and plaque buildup is to carry plastic flossers so you can floss on the go after a meal. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are simple, but incredibly valuable ways to prevent problems with your teeth and your oral health overall. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Prevention Also Happens In The Dentist\u2019s Chair<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beck Dental Care is here for you! That\u2019s why we offer a variety of preventive dental treatments you can take advantage of on your next visit. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And speaking of your next visit, we should start by reminding you about how essential it is for you to make sure to schedule a dental cleaning and exam at least twice a year. Cleaning your mouth of plaque, tartar buildup, and harmful bacteria requires the professional eye and the professional tools we have here at Beck Dental Care. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t always show signs of gum disease when you have it. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to let us catch it, and other oral health issues, early enough so we can treat them before they become more serious. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But we go further than that in our Columbia dental office! You can take advantage of dental services that try to help you achieve good oral health from every angle, such as<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Dental Sealants<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Fluoride Treatments<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Athletic Mouthguards<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Mouthguards For Teeth Grinding<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you come in for your routine dental checkup, be sure to ask about our preventive treatments. Dr. Beck and our team can help you figure out what might be right for you and for your lifestyle. If you\u2019re involved in competitive or recreational sports, for example, and athletic mouthguard are a great way to prevent injuries to your teeth, lips, and the soft tissue of your gums and cheeks. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Beck Dental Care Is Happy To Help YOU!<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call us today at <a href=\"tel:19313888452\">(931) 388-8452<\/a> or fill out our <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online form<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to schedule an appointment for a dental cleaning and exam.
