]]> Did you know there are bad tooth brushing habits that can affect the condition of your teeth and gums? Well, it’s true, and our dentist, Dr. Khashayar Khomejany, strongly recommends avoiding those habits as much as possible. To help you do so, they is happy to list those habits as well as give you the tips you need to do just the opposite.

-Using a toothbrush that doesn’t have soft bristles (Soft bristles are the best because they clean the teeth and care for the gums)

-Using a toothbrush that hasn’t been approved by the American Dental Association (The ADA stamp of approval is important because it proves the tool is safe and effective in an oral hygiene routine)

-Not brushing for the appropriate amount of time (It’s best to brush for two minutes each time you scrub your chompers)

-Brushing too hard or too often (You should brush your teeth with a gentle motion and you should brush twice a day, typically every morning and night)

To learn more about bad tooth brushing habits in Vallejo, California, our dental team encourages you to call Plaza Dental Care at 707-642-1360 today. We are here to give you the tips, information, and answers you need to have the best brushing technique possible. We look forward to helping you!

]]> Welcome to Plaza Dental Care, a  comprehensive, family-friendly dental practice in Vallejo, California, where we use state-of-the-art dental technology, including CEREC® one-visit restorations for our patients seeking a high-quality, natural-looking dental crown.

As well as covering a tooth that is damaged, weakened or discolored, our porcelain dental crown can be used to help a tooth’s shape or appearance to look more attractive, and also to keep the bite healthy as a crown prevents the teeth from shifting.

Our porcelain dental crowns are created to match your own pearly whites, making them a natural-looking replacement. The life of a dental crown can run anywhere between five to fifteen years, depending on the amount of stress you place on it and how well you care for your oral health in general. Taking excellent care of your crown means staying on top of your oral health which includes:

  1. Brushing at least twice a day
  2. Flossing daily at least once (particularly around the crown area where your gums reach the tooth)
  3. Avoiding hard foods, biting your fingernails and grinding and clenching your teeth
  4. Keeping up with routine professional dental cleanings and exams

Do you have a damaged or missing tooth that may benefit from wearing a dental crown? If so, Dr. Sean and Dr. Sepi in Vallejo, California, are here to help restore your smile in just one visit. To schedule visit with our skilled team, please call 707-642-1360 today and let us restore your smile confidence!
