This happened....
The best day ever.

We are happy to announce we now offer Zoom! Teeth Whitening!
Dr. Perella wanted to be sure this product was good enough for our patients, so he went through the entire process himself.
Here's Brooke carefully applying the barrier fluid onto Dr. Perella's gums, as Kelly and Chris look on.
The light curing process is now safer and more comfortable, using LED light instead of ultra violet.
We are excited to offer this popular teeth whitening option to our patients. It's a great idea for upcoming weddings, graduations, job interviews, or if you just need a confidence boost!
Give us a call to schedule your Zoom! consultation!
Now this is what we like to see...a full house on a Thursday morning!
Sometimes, we need a little pick-me up. And, luckily for us (or not) there's tons of energy drinks to put that pep back in our step just in time for that big meeting, that long drive, or in Paul's case, his wedding!
While energy drinks provide a short term fix, your teeth may suffer in the long run.
According to a 2012 study published in the journal of General Dentistry, energy and sports drinks, which tend to be highly acidic, can erode tooth enamel. And when enamel is damaged, teeth can become more susceptible to cavities and decay. It also can make teeth sensitive to touch and temperature changes.
Researchers examined the acidity levels in 13 sports drinks and 9 energy drinks. They found that the acidity levels varied among brands, and even flavors of the same brand. Overall, the energy drinks caused twice as much damage to teeth as the sports drinks. In light of this, the Academy of General Dentistry is recommending that people minimize their intake of sports and energy drinks, and to chew sugar-free gum or rinse their mouths with water following consumption of these beverages. Either of these actions will increase saliva flow, which in turn helps bring the acidity levels in the mouth to normal.
Last night, we threw a pizza party for our little Braves t-ball team. The boys were hungry after giving it their all against the Phillies. We loved meeting their families who were so appreciative.
We are proud to support our local parks and recreation programs and look forward to more games!
