Getting enough may have a positive impact on our dental health. When we sleep, our body produces saliva, which helps to wash away harmful bacteria and prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Lack of sleep may cause a decrease in saliva production, which may lead to an increase in harmful bacteria in our mouth. So, make sure you're getting enough sleep to keep your mouth healthy and happy.

✅ or ❌ : Whitening toothpaste alone can make teeth several shades whiter
➡️Answer: False. While whitening toothpaste may help remove surface stains and make teeth appear slightly whiter, it typically does not have the ability to change the natural color of teeth or make them significantly whiter on its own.

New featured review on google
I started Invisalign treatment at La Jolla Family Smile Design in April 2024 and completed it in October, much faster than the 12+ months I was originally told it might take. At the beginning of my treatment, everyone was incredibly nice, and I felt respected and well-cared for during each visit. I even raved about this office on every military response page I could find because of how great the experience was.While they dont accept military dental insurance, I still chose to start treatment with them because of the amazing deal I received on Invisalign. I couldnt imagine going anywhere else. However, as my treatment progressed, I needed additional dental work. While the office could perform this work, it wasnt covered by my insurance, and the out-of-pocket costs would have been significant. As a mother of four and with the holidays approaching, I made the practical decision to have this work done at another provider that accepted my military insurance, allowing me to save a considerable amount of money.Even though I returned to La Jolla Family Smile Design to complete my final Invisalign photos and other steps, it felt like I wasnt as valued as a patient anymore because I chose to get some of my dental work done elsewhere. I didnt feel the same warmth or respect that I experienced at the start of my treatment. It felt rushed and impersonal, and I didnt even get to see the doctor to review or celebrate my final results.While Im incredibly happy with my Invisalign results and have recommended this office to otherssome of whom are starting treatment in January based on my referralI was disappointed by how I was treated at the end of my journey.La Jolla Family Smile Design is a great place to start your Invisalign process, but I hope they work on maintaining the same level of care and respect for all patients, regardless of where they may need to seek additional treatment.

✅ or ❌ : Chewing gum can replace brushing during busy holiday travel
➡️Answer: True! While sugar-free gum may help reduce plaque, it doesn’t replace brushing and flossing.

-Choose toys free of small parts that could be a choking hazard.
-Avoid sugary treats in stockings that can harm little smiles.
-Consider gifts like fun toothbrushes, flavored toothpaste, or dental care kits to encourage healthy habits.
Let’s keep the holidays safe, fun, and full of healthy smiles! 🦷✨
