Steven Tyler was in town!

Back in April, we received a Wolf Trap brochure for summer concerts in our office. As Dr. Choby scanned the brochure, her eyes landed on the concert on June 21st. Immediately, she called Wolf Trap and bought a ticket. You might be asking: what her very excited to order so quickly? It was Steven Tyler. After missing out on the Sting concert that was earlier in the year, she took full advantage og her Wolf Trap membership. After a five chat with the Wolf Trap representative, she was set to see Steven Tyler.

After two full months of root canals treatments, emergencies, having our office laptop stolen and other personal things going on, Dr. Choby was anxious for the 21st to come along. And let me tell you, the wait was worth it! Last night was amazing! Especially after a long day at work with back to back treatments.

The show kicked off at 8PM, with a group of women playing a few songs as an introduction to Steven Tyler. The women were great! They were the perfect group to introduce the main star. About an hour into the show, the crowd started to come alive as Steven Tyler took the stage. For those who don't know who he is: Steven Tyler is well known as the lead singer of Aerosmith. He's known as the "Demon of Screamin'" as he has a great vocal range and for his high-energy performances.

That title is well earned. He came onto the stage in a very vibrant outfit and with lots of energy. 
Steven Tyler put on a great show, as always.

Brush (and floss) your teeth!

In the recent Mayo Clinic Health Letter , (Volume 37, Number 4) there was an interesting article on how tooth brushing reduces cardiovascular risks. The article states: Brushing your teeth twice daily is important for maintaining good oral hygiene. This daily routine can also benefit your heart. A study presented at the 2018 American Heart Association Scientific Sessions provides new evidence of this link. The study's 682 participants self-reported their tooth-brushing habits compared with the recommendation of twice a day for at least two minutes each time. Over an average of 28 months of follow-up, those who reported brushing their teeth less frequently and for a shorter duration had three times the risk of a first major cardiovascular event than did those who met the tooth-brushing guidelines. These cardiovascular events included heart attack, stroke, hospitalization for heart failure or dying of a cardiovascular cause. A separate study, published in the December 2018 i...

We Got A New CT!

 A few months ago, disaster hit our office. 😱 Our CT went down! No fear, we got it replace with a newer and better CT scan. Introducing the Carestream 8100.  The CS8100 allows us to choose whether we want to concentrate on one quadrant of the teeth or if we choose to take a full mouth scan. We can even take 2D panoramic x-rays if we wish. The scan yields a high resolution image. These images are more clear and sharper than the images produced by our previous CT.  We are so happy to have this new CT scan in our office. It has helped diagnosis some of the more difficult cases we have seen recently.

Does flossing really matter?

Recently, we came upon an article,  17 Health Advances Every Woman Deserves to Know released by the editors of the  Harvard Woman's Health Watch . One of the 17 concerns was:  does flossing really matter?  The simple answer: yes, it does. It reads as followed: A recent report has some people thinking there's no benefit to flossing. But before you toss your floss, consider this: flossing helps prevent periodontal disease, which is linked to higher risk of diabetes, heart disease and dementia. What's more, gum disease is also associated with a greater risk of serious degenerative diseases. To avoid periodontal disease make sure you brush your teeth at least twice a day AND floss before bedtime, eat a healthy diet and have regular dental check ups. We often get patients that unfortunately don't floss or we get patients that say they do but their teeth tell different stories. Endodontists are known for being the heroes and heroines of saving teeth so we can't expre...
