The Fairfield (CA) Daily Republic (3/16) reports that April is National Facial Protection Month, which is sponsored by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, and co-sponsored by the American Dental Association and other organizations. “These organizations naturally emphasize the importance of mouth guards,” the Daily Republic reports, adding that many people do not realize that “the list of activities in which mouth guards are recommended is expanding” to include activities such as martial arts, boxing, football, volleyball, softball, bicycling, “and even cheerleading.” The article then goes on to advocate for stricter bicycle helmet laws, noting that “motorcycle riders without helmets were once a common sight” too.

Gum Disease Preventable With Proper Oral Hygiene, Healthy Diet, Regular Dental Visits.

Gum Disease Preventable With Proper Oral Hygiene, Healthy Diet, Regular Dental Visits.

The Fort Campbell (KY) Courier (4/3, Young) reports that many basic daily activities, such as speaking, smiling, chewing and even smelling “are dependent on having good oral health,” which in turn can be ensured through proper oral hygiene. The article goes on to focus on gum disease specifically, noting that over time gum irritation “can progress until the gums detach themselves from the teeth, forming pockets,” eventually leading to tooth and bone loss. Proper oral hygiene, including brushing twice daily and flossing daily, visiting the dentist regularly, and avoiding tobacco products are the best way to help prevent gum disease. Additionally, “a poor diet that is low in vitamin C, calcium, vitamin D or magnesium can compromise gum tissue’s ability to heal and can speed up bone loss,” the article reports.

San Diego Orthodontist Says You’re Never Too Old For A Beautiful Smile

San Diego Orthodontist, Dr. Anton J. Bisbas says It’s Never Too Late to Have a Beautiful Smile

A healthy, attractive, confident smile gives you the look of success – no matter how old you are!

Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, one of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over 21 according to Dr. Bisbas, Orthodontist-San Diego. Having a beautiful smile can improve self-confidence and enhance your personal and professional relationships. Straight teeth are a part of a healthy lifestyle for San Diego’s active adults.

There are a variety of orthodontic types to choose from. New materials and technology have resulted in braces that are more comfortable to wear and less noticeable. Dr. Bisbas says today’s braces are more discreet than ever before.

Dr. Bisbas has earned the distinction of being a Premiere Provider of Invisalign®, the clear, removable aligners that straighten your teeth without braces. With Invisalign® visits to Dr. Bisbas’ San Diego orthodontist office are less frequent and treatment time can be reduced to fit your busy schedule.
