At Declaration Dental, the Christmas season is about more than decorations and treats — it’s about compassion, generosity, and caring for others ❤️🎄

This December, we’re proud to spotlight Samaritan’s Purse, an organization that provides practical help and hope to people in need around the world.

Through their work, Samaritan’s Purse delivers hot meals, clean water, medical care, emergency relief, and essential resources to families facing hardship. They’re also well known for Operation Christmas Child, which sends shoebox gifts filled with simple necessities and toys to children around the world — reminding them they are seen, loved, and not forgotten.

In addition, their Christmas Gift Catalog allows you to give meaningful gifts — like food, livestock, medical support, or clean water — in honor of someone you love.

If you’re looking for a way to make your Christmas giving even more meaningful, we invite our patients and community to explore these opportunities:
👉 https://www.samaritanspurse.org/our-ministry/gift-catalog/

👉 https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/

Sometimes the most powerful gifts aren’t the ones under the tree — they’re the ones that provide nourishment, comfort, and hope.

Wishing you a season filled with peace, gratitude, and generosity.

Ever wonder why toothpaste is minty?
Mint has been used for centuries to freshen breath — but here’s the truth most people don’t realize:

Toothpaste masks bad breath.
Professional dental hygiene visits eliminate it.

Bad breath is often caused by bacteria hiding below the gumline and around plaque and tartar buildup — places your toothbrush and toothpaste simply can’t reach. A professional hygiene visit removes the source of odor, not just the symptoms.

Use It or Lose It

Many patients are surprised to learn they still have unused benefits — sometimes $1,000 or more — that do not roll over into the new year.

We still have a few appointments available. Call today to reserve yours before your benefits disappear.

Caitlin, one of our skilled dental assistants at Declaration Dental, answers a question we hear all the time:
👉 “How can a tooth go bad even if it already has a crown?”

Here’s the truth — a dental crown is like armor for your tooth, but the tooth underneath still needs care and protection. 🦷
Decay can sneak in at the edges if plaque builds up, or the tooth’s root can be affected by gum disease. Sometimes, even tiny cracks or bite pressure can cause issues over time.

In this video, Caitlin explains in simple terms why crowned teeth sometimes fail and, more importantly, what you can do to make your crown last for years to come — from great home care to regular dental hygiene visits.

If you have a crown or think you might need one, this is a must-watch!

Monticello — this is your end-of-year reminder! ⏰🔥
Your 2025 dental insurance benefits are about to expire, and once the clock strikes midnight on December 31st… anything unused disappears.

That means:
👉 Any remaining exams, cleanings, or x-rays
👉 Any coverage for fillings, crowns, or restorative work
👉 Any benefits toward dentures, partials, or Invisalign®
…may be lost for good if they’re not scheduled now.

Most patients still have $1,000 or more in unused benefits that the insurance company would love to keep — but that money belongs to you.

Don’t let your benefits go to waste.
Appointments fill quickly this time of year, and we want to help you get the most out of your plan.

📞 Call today: (574) 583-5042
Let’s get you scheduled before time runs out.

Monticello — here’s something most people have never been told. 💙🫁
During Lung Cancer Awareness Month, we’re sharing an important health connection that often gets overlooked:
The same bacteria that cause gum disease have been linked in research to lung cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal cancer. 🔬
Your mouth isn’t separate from your body — it’s deeply connected to your overall health.
When inflammation or infection starts in the gums, it can travel through the bloodstream and affect major organs, including the lungs.
That’s why we take periodontal health seriously here at Declaration Dental.
To us, you are far more than a set of teeth — we care about your total health, not just your smile.
If you have gum disease (or a family history of it), we often recommend a 3-month hygiene schedule to help reduce harmful bacteria and lower systemic health risks.
And with the year coming to a close, now is the ideal time to schedule your next visit and use your remaining dental benefits before they expire.
📞 Call (574) 583-5042
Let’s help you stay healthy — mouth and body — while maximizing your insurance benefits.
