With the end of the year fast approaching, we know that a lot of our patients are starting to think about their health and longevity, including when it comes to their oral health. Because we are a dental office, patients often ask us for recommendations on the best dental products. We know that other medical professionals are also asked the same questions about diet and exercise. Dr. Brown is back to discuss this topic in the next installment of his vlog, “Dr. Brown Speaks the Tooth.” Click here to watch the video and learn more about dental and overall health.

At Brown & Gettings, DDS, we not only care about our patients’ oral health, but their overall health as well. When you visit our office for a routine hygiene examination, we do more than just clean your teeth and inspect for decay, we look for signs of weakness in your teeth and mouth that can lead to serious complications in the future. One red flag that indicates a problem is worn teeth. Worn teeth can be a sign that you are clenching and grinding your teeth, a condition known as bruxism.
