An impacted tooth is a tooth that gets stuck and cannot come in the right way.
This usually happens when there isn’t enough room in the mouth or another tooth is blocking it. The tooth may stay under the gums or only come out partway. Wisdom teeth are the most commonly impacted teeth followed by maxillary canine teeth (commonly called eye teeth or even fangs). An impacted tooth can cause pain, swelling, or push on other teeth, so a dentist may need to help fix or remove it. This is where we shine!

A dental implant is a dependable way to replace a missing tooth in many situations. First, a dentist puts a small metal post into the jawbone. This post acts like the root of a tooth. Over time, the bone grows around it and holds it firmly in place. Next, the dentist attaches a new replacement tooth on top (called a crown). This tooth looks and works like a real one, so you can eat, talk, and smile normally. Dental implants are strong, long-lasting, and help keep your mouth healthy by stopping nearby teeth from moving out of place.

DIY teeth whitening trends promise quick results, but they can quietly damage your oral health. Overuse of harsh products may weaken enamel, increase sensitivity, and irritate gums, sometimes causing long-term harm. A brighter smile shouldn’t come at the cost of pain or damage.

It’s New Years Resolution time and with that a push to change any bad habits to help prioritze our health. Now, there are a lot of healthy beverages on the market right now that aren’t as healthy for our teeth. Drinks like Kombucha, sparkling water, and lemon water can be very beneficial for us, but there are also highly acidic, which can slowly strip away enamel. One way to prevent those healthy drinks from having a negative impact is to rinse your mouth out with water after consumption. Added sugars may outweigh health benefits of whatever they sweeten also, so watch the sugar! You don’t have to risk your oral health for your overall health.

If missing teeth, pulled wisdom teeth, or postponed dental surgery have been on your mind, this is your sign.
Taking too long in making a decision can lead to more than just a gap in your smile, nearby teeth can shift, bone can slowly weaken, your bite can change, and everyday things like chewing or speaking may become harder over time.
This year, choose progress over procrastination Don’t wait another year to invest in your health and confidence. Let’s make 2026 the year you smile without hesitation.

Wisdom teeth get their name because they usually emerge during late adolescence or early adulthood, typically between ages 17 and 25. Historically, this life stage was associated with greater maturity, insight, and “wisdom” compared to childhood. Ancient cultures noticed this timing and named the third molars accordingly. In Latin, they’re called dens sapientiae, meaning “tooth of wisdom.” Unlike other teeth, wisdom teeth appear after most personal growth and learning milestones, reinforcing the connection between age and perceived wisdom.
