Happy Toothsday! Did you know: In most cases, tusks are over-sized canines, but in elephants they are over-sized incisors! Talk about being "long in the tooth!"

Did you know: Dolphins teeth are for grasping, not chewing! That's the exact opposite of human teeth -- make sure you don't use your teeth to grasp anything, or you might be paying us a visit to fix broken or chipped teeth!

November 1st is National Brush Day!

November 1st, 2014

Now that Halloween has passed and everyone is loaded up with candy, it's the perfect time for a reminder about the importance of brushing at least 2 times a day for at least 2 minutes. It's especially important to encourage children to practice this daily oral hygiene routine: starting early in life helps avoid childhood dental problems and establishes good oral hygiene that will last a lifetime. So just remember, 2 minutes twice a day!
