When the temperature gets below zero, all you really want to do is curl up by the fire. But cold weather is no reason to skimp on oral care. Flossing might seem like a chore, especially in a North Dakota winter, but the value it brings to your teeth and gums is worth a little shivering. Flossing, when paired with daily brushing, is proven to help reduce the risk of gum disease. Besides that, it can help improve your breath and whiten your teeth, resulting in a bright smile. Anyways, when you’re chatting with colleagues about the last hockey game, you don’t want to be the one with food stuck in their teeth, do you?

With nearly 90% of all land in North Dakota taken up by farms, it’s to be expected that NoDaks know a thing or two about maintaining a healthy crop. However, when it comes to maintaining a healthy smile, the average person’s expertise gets more shaky. Unlike a crop, if the one this year doesn’t do so well, you can always try again next year! With teeth, it’s a different story. As an adult, the teeth you have now are all you’ve got. So, take care of them with a daily oral care routine—brush, floss, and eat a healthy diet, too! Like a healthy crop, healthy teeth and gums require lots of care. When you put in the work, you’ll reap the rewards!

What are dental implants?

t

Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth, and they can last for many decades with proper oral hygiene. They are made from titanium alloys, which does not contain nickel and cobalt. This means that they are biocompatible and will not irritate gums. These tooth implants restore tooth functions and aesthetics and promote bone preservation and healing. If you are missing one or multiple of your teeth, dental implants can be the best option. They can also help people who have difficulties masticating, speaking, breathing, and swallowing. Implants can be used to improve patients' oral health, appearance, and quality of life. Implants are false teeth replacements that attach to the gum and bone tissue by means of screws or crowns. The screw is inserted into the jawbone. The crown is attached onto the implant. It is then capped with either a porcelain or porcelain fused to metal crown. There are different kinds of dental implants. Some are more longer lasting while others are less durable. There are two main types of dental implants: the Osseointegrated Dental Implants, and the Endosteal Dental Implants. • Osseointegrated implants use bone to connect to the implant. • Endosteal Implants rely on a separate crown and Artificial Bone. Osseointegrated Dental Implants are popular since they are more effective at restoring teeth that have been lost. They are stronger and look more natural looking than an endosteal implants. The titanium-ceramic dental implants are made of pure Titanium with an outer ceramic or porcelain coat. These implants can replace a single tooth or be used to support implant supported dentures. The titanium-zirconium implants ore dental implants are made using both zirconium and titanium oxide. There are other types of dental implants each designed to serve a specific purpose.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.

I fell off my bike and chipped my front tooth. I was able to find and book an appointment online right away. Next time I need an appointment I'll try Doctors Network again.
