Happy Global Running Day! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️ Global Running day is a day that people all over the world celebrate by running long distances, short distances, or even just getting out to walk the dog!
We all know that having good cardiovascular health, but what impact do sports like running have on your oral health? It may surprise you that you have to take a little extra care for your teeth when you exercise.
Athletes tend to breathe heavily through their mouths, causing dry mouth and an increase in bacteria. The main fuel sources for athletes are carbs in the form of sugary sports drinks and energy bars, which all combined lead to increased tooth decay and erosion of tooth enamel.
The best way to keep up your dental health as well as your cardiovascular health is to drink plenty of water to help flush out excess sugars and bad bacteria in your mouth, keep up your at-home care, and regular visits to our office for dental cleanings — contact us today to schedule!

May is Save Your Tooth Month, a time to shine a spotlight on the importance of saving natural teeth and the specialists who make it possible: endodontists! Endodontists specialize in root canal treatment, diagnosing and relieving tooth pain and saving teeth from cracks and trauma.
Save Your Tooth Month focuses on empowering patients with knowledge about how modern endodontic care can prevent tooth loss, eliminate dental pain, and enhance quality of life. Remember, it's key to catch potential problems early with regular checkups and cleanings.
