Showing Thanks for Your Teeth!

What are you most thankful for this Thanksgiving?  Family and friends usually top the list of things for which we are thankful.  However, things like our teeth are often taken for granted and we should give them thanks as well.  Teeth are more important to your everyday life than you may realize.

Thankful for Speaking

Teeth are essential for speaking.  Your tongue uses the structure of your teeth to form many sounds.  Often, speaking issues can first be addressed at the dentist.  Schedule an appointment at Carolina Smiles Dentistry for more information.

Thankful for Smiling

Your teeth are a defining physical feature.  A smile is one of the first things that we notice about each other.  From laughing with friends, smiling on first date, or impressing at work, your smile influences all aspects of your life.  The dentists at Carolina Smiles Dentistry dedicate themselves to improving and maintaining your beautiful smile so that you can be at your best self.

Thankful for Eating

One of the best parts of the holidays is the delicious food.  Your teeth are your top tools for eating.  Incisors, the square front teeth, bite and rip food into manageable pieces.  Molars, the large back teeth, mash and chew the food to jumpstart digestion.  Food particles and plaque directly impact the health of our teeth.  Cleaning teeth properly after each meal is vital to their longevity.

Your teeth give you a great deal for which to give thanks.  Celebrate Thanksgiving with a cleaning at Carolina Smiles Dentistry.  Your dentist will also instruct you on a healthy daily oral health routine to best care for your teeth.
