Avoid the Dental Grinch!

Thanksgiving and Black Friday have just about past, but the holidays are only just getting started. We love holidays at Hamlin Dental Group, probably more than your typical dentists' office. That's why we think it's just terrible when something gets in the way of holiday fun.

Sadly, your teeth and gums are one of those things that can seriously hamper your seasonal good times if you don't pay them proper attention with good oral hygiene and regular dental visits. Obviously, the often extremely nasty pain of a sudden toothache is a pretty obvious threat to any fun at all while you're experiencing it. A less obvious holiday buzzkill, however, are periodontal problems. Aside from the long-term health issues associated with gum disease (including increased risks of heart problems), halitosis -- the polite medical term for bad breath -- is frequently an issue. The holidays are definitely less fun if everyone runs away the minute they see you approaching the mistletoe!

Of course, the solution to all of these problems is take advantage of the very best family dentistry you can find, and that's obviously what we're all about here at Hamlin Dental Group. Give us a call and we'll do our best to make sure that your holidays are as jolly as they're supposed to be.
