A Little Flossing A Day Can...


Why is daily flossing so important? Most of us don't want the bother or the stares, so we just don't floss regulary. But there are important reasons that we should...

1. To prevent tooth decay

Dental plaque can cause cavities if it’s left between teeth. To remove this stuburn plaque flossing is necessary.

2. To prevent gum disease

Gingivitis (inflammation of gums) is the first stage of gum disease (periodontal disease). It is caused by an accumulation of plaque around gums and between teeth. Flossing is therefore important to remove all plaque accumulated after a meal.

3. To prevent halitosis

Everyone hates bad breath. Dental plaque is one of the causes of halitosis, and if it’s left between your teeth, it will generate a bad smell in your mouth. Flossing can be a big help with fresh breath.

4. To prevent tartar build-up

Tartar is dental plaque that has become hard from the saliva’s calcifying action. Good oral hygiene measures, which include brushing and flossing, can slow down the accumulation of tartar.

5. To reduce the risk of heart disease

The mouth is an entrway for harmful bacteria. These bacteria may eventually reach the body organs, including cardiac tissue. Good dental health, including flossing regulary is directly related to bettering your overall health.

The Benefits Of Bonding


Dental bonding or tooth bonding, is an great way to repair cosmetic and structural problems in the teeth. Dental bonding can be used to correct cracked, chipped, and/or discolored teeth. They can also be used to replace silver amalgam fillings. Cosmetic bonding is ofen used to repair misaligned teeth, providing a straighter, more uniform smile as well.

Have The Smile You Always Wanted With Veneers


Veneers are a fantastic option for teeth that are stained, chipped, misaligned or worn down. This increasingly popular cosmetic dental procedure allows you to have a whole new, "perfect" smile. Veneers allow the dentist to reshape teeth, close gaps and conceal cracks, stains and chips... it's the ultimate smile makeover.

Veneers are thin porcelain shells that are fabricated in a dental laboratory and applied to the front of each tooth after a layer of enamel is removed from the tooth's surface. Despite the porcelain's thinness, it is extremely durable. Veneers often outlast most other cosmetic dental treatments.

You don't have to live with an imperfect smile. Veneers offers a safe, convenient and effective solution. Gain the confidence and appearance you always wanted. Ask us about FREE GLAMOUR SHOTS with your new veneers.

Dental X-Rays Are Important !!


Even if you go to the dentist on a regular, or somewhat regular, basis for cleaning and exams it is important to also get x-rays every year. So often a patient will come in excrutiating pain from a tooth that has been gradually decaying for years, but the decay was not visible to the naked eye. All the extra pain and dental complications could have been avoided by routine x-rays.

Often decay forms between the teeth where it may never become visible to the examining dentist or the hygienist, but it is certainly visible on the x-ray. So when your dentist recommends x-rays, get them! It can save you pain, additional dental procedures and most importantly-- your tooth.

Kurz Family & Cosmetic dentistry specializes in preventative care. Call us today to schedule a complete exam, cleaning and x-ray.

Use Or LOOSE Your Dental Benefits


You can save money and improve your dental health by maximizing your insurance benefits each year. Some dental insurance plans run on a fiscal year, but most run on a calendar year. If your dental insurance plan is on a calendar year, here are 5 great reasons why you should make a dental appointment now.

1. Yearly Maximum
The yearly maximum is the most money that the dental insurance plan will pay for your dental work within one full year. Unfortunately unused benefits to do rollover. The yearly maximum amount varies by insurance company, but usually is around $1,000 per year, per person. The yearly maximum usually renews each year (on January 1st if your plan is on a calendar year).

2. Deductible
The deductible is the amount of money that you must pay to your dentist. This out of pocket expense must be paid before your insurance company will pay for any services. This fee varies from one insurance plan to another and is sometimes higher if you choose an out-of-network dentist. Your deductible also starts again when your plan rolls over.

3. Premiums
If you are paying your dental insurance premiums every month as scheduled, you should definitely be using your benefits. Even if you are not having any particular dental problems, you should still always have your regular dental cleanings to help prevent and detect any early signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer and other dental issues.

4. Fee Increases
Another reason to use your benefits before the end of the year are possible insurance fee and deductible increases. Some dentists raise their rates at the beginning of the year due to the increased cost of living, materials and equipment. Some insurance companies also raise copays as well.

5. Dental Problems Can Get Worse
Delaying dental treatment, can put you at risk for more extensive and expensive treatment in the future. It can mean the difference having a tooth treated or having a tooth removed. What may be a simple cavity now, could turn into a root canal later. Call Kurz Family Dentistry today to schedule an appointment and use those benefits.
