Your tooth enamel degrades from plaque, bacteria, excess sugar and acids, which turn into cavities in your teeth over time. Decay happens when your enamel is worn down by acidic substances in food and drinks. To better protect your enamel, avoid consuming too much sticky candies, sodas or sugary drinks, foods that can easily get stuck in your teeth, and sugary alcoholic beverages that dry out your mouth. Give us a call today at (615) 859-3700 to discuss the best way for you to take care of your teeth!

Your mouth is home to millions of different bacteria and while brushing and flossing your teeth is a great way to keep your mouth clean, it doesn’t remove the bacteria from your tongue. This bacterium produces sulfur compounds that lead to bad breath and other health issues. Use a tongue scraper or a soft-bristled toothbrush to brush your tongue. After cleaning, be sure to rinse with mouthwash and thoroughly rinse your toothbrush with water. You’ll know your tongue is fresh and clean when all the discolored debris disappears and you’re left with a clean pink tongue! Contact us at (615) 859-3700 to schedule your semi-annual appointment!

Did you know that clove oil can help alleviate pain from a toothache until you can see us? As a natural pain- reliever, it can be helpful to provide temporary relief from pain and swelling caused by toothaches. It works well because it contains eugenol, which is also found in cinnamon. Apply a few drops of clove oil to a cotton ball or swab and place it on the sensitive area of your teeth and gums. Be aware that clove oil has a strong flavor so you might want to sample a drop before using too much! Call us at (615) 859-3700 if you’re experiencing any mouth pain.
