Summer is a great time to relax – but it’s also a surprisingly good time to take care of some dental maintenance. We make it especially easy at Oasis Dental, by offering appointments as early as 7 a.m.
Don’t hesitate to call our offices in Vancouver ( 360-695-3369) or Ridgefield ( 360-727-0335) for any of the following services or help with other dental needs:
Begin Orthodontics Treatment
– Are you or another family member getting orthodontics treatment? If you’ll be wearing Invisalign, you’ll probably find it easier to get acclimated to changes during the summer months when you’re spending less time at school or work. You can adjust to how the aligners feel in your mouth and how they might affect speech, oral hygiene, or other aspects of your life.
Get Your Athletes a Custom Mouthguard
– If you or other family members play sports, let us fit you for custom-made mouthguards to protect your smiles. They are made with dental impressions, so the fit is superior to any store-bought gear. Plus, no “boil-and-bite” adjustment is needed.
Book Your Exams Before School Starts
– Many people postpone their family’s dental exams and cleanings until late in the summer, then try to schedule them before the kids return to school. Even with our early hours, our calendar can fill up pretty rapidly. Schedule these services now, so you’ll have a wider choice of appointment days/times.
Take a Proactive Approach to Cavity Prevention
– Diets are sometimes a little less healthy in the summer, with vacations and other activities disrupting your eating habits. We can protect your family’s teeth with dental sealants and fluoride treatment.
Troubleshoot Your TMJ Pain
– If you wake up with jaw pain or headaches, you may have a TMJ disorder. TMJ disorders occur when your jaw joints become inflamed, causing pain and discomfort. We offer several treatment options to help relieve symptoms and improve jaw function. Custom mouthguards prevent teeth grinding and reduce pressure on the jaw joints. Botox treatments relax sore facial muscles and ease tension caused by TMJ disorders.
