25.01.2022 Calcium is so important in keeping your bones and teeth healthy. Milk contains amino acids and other great nutrients that have been shown to help your sleep cycle. If you’re looking for a way to get more calcium in your diet, try a warm glass of milk with cinnamon just before bed. :) #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

23.01.2022 Have you tried using an electric toothbrush? While a soft, regular toothbrush is fine, electric toothbrushes do have some benefits that can make your brushing routine easier. Most electric toothbrushes come with a 2 minute timer, so you know when you’ve completed a thorough clean. Electric toothbrushes can also make around 50,000 movements per minute, with a regular toothbrush making between 300 and 600. Electric toothbrushes are made with soft bristles which makes them great for teeth and gums. #DentistryOnMarlston #BunburyWA #HappyHealthySmile

23.01.2022 Planning is an important part of life, and a great way to make sure you keep on top of those bi-yearly dentist visits. Try booking your next visit for 6 months time immediately after seeing the dentist, pop it in your calendar and put a reminder in your phone. Staying consistent with these visits will make sure you get the best dental care and keep your teeth and gums healthy. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

17.01.2022 As parents, keeping your children’s oral health in tip top shape is an important part of protecting your kids from infection and tooth decay. Brush your children’s teeth twice per day until they are about 8-9, then teach them how to brush themselves. Floss any teeth that touch together, and make sure to use child-strength fluoride toothpaste. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

15.01.2022 Dental contouring and teeth filing, also referred to as tooth reshaping or enameloplasty is a procedure executed by dentists usually for cosmetic reasons, to slightly change the shape, width or length of your teeth. The procudure can also be recommended by your dentist if you have chipped or misshapen teeth that are impacting the rest of your mouth. If you’d like a tooth shape changed or filed, check in with your Dentist during your next visit. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

11.01.2022 Cheese! Did you know that our teeth are very similar to those of our monkey friends? Primates and humans both have 32 teeth, which consist of molars, premolars, incisors and canines. The main noticable differences are that primate canines are larger than humans, and their jaws are more rectangular. :) #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

11.01.2022 Q: What do you call X-rays taken by a dentist? A: Tooth-pics. :) #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile #FunnyFriday

09.01.2022 Keeping your tongue clean and healthy is a big part of your overall oral health! Drinking plenty of water helps flush any bacteria that may be breeding on the tongue, you can also gently brush your tongue with your toothbrush during your usually brushing routine morning and night. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

08.01.2022 Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that fit into place by support created through the oral cavity. Dentures can be a great option for patients with missing teeth, and are custom made, removable and easy to clean. Our patients have described their dentures as life changing! #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

07.01.2022 Stress is a common cause of teeth grinding or bruxism. When we’re stressed, our body increases adrenaline. And when you’re not moving your body at night that adrenaline can cause you to grind your teeth. Teeth grinding can cause irreparable damage - so if you think you are suffering from this issue, make sure to book in an appointment with your doctor! #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

05.01.2022 Losing baby teeth is an amazing time in your child’s life, where they are growing and developing mentally and physically. This is a very important time to keep their oral health front of mind. When your child has a wobbly tooth, don’t encourage them to pull it out with force. They can gently wobble it from side to side, and if it doesn’t come loose then leave it for a few days. Once a tooth has come out, especially if the gum is bleeding, make sure to have your child gargle with warm salt water. Keep their mouth and gums clean during this period to avoid any infection. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

05.01.2022 Citrus fruits are extremely healthy, and rich in Vitamin C! However, they do contain a range of acids that can break down enamel on your teeth. When eating citrus make sure to drink a glass of water immediately after, to assist in washing out any excess acids remaining in your mouth. Gently brush your teeth about half an hour after consuming, not directly after as this can cause further harm. And like any good food, enjoy in moderation! #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

05.01.2022 Queensland, we’re not just flattening the curve, we’re smashing it! Due to all of our efforts of self isolating and social distancing, the Government regulations have now been moved to Level 1. This means that your Dentist has been given the go ahead to resume providing you with all dental treatment. If you’ve had an appointment postponed due to Covid-19, we can now see you for your appointment sooner than we anticipated. We are also pleased to be able to see you for your rou...tine dental care so we’re able to continue to maintain your oral health. #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

03.01.2022 We at Atherton Family Dental together with the Australian Dental Association celebrate Dental Health Week 2020 --How Much Sugar is Hiding In Your Trolley?. It draws on the concept of hidden sugars and reading food labels in order to make healthy choices. Making healthy choices at the supermarket extends to making similar smart food and drink choices at home. Saying ‘no’ to an unhealthy item in the supermarket means you don’t have to continue to say ‘no’ at home.

03.01.2022 Don’t rush when you brush. :) #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile #FunnyFriday

02.01.2022 Have you ever wondered why the Dentist asks you to wear glasses during your check-up? Glasses not only provide comfort from the lights used, they also protect your eyes from any particles or liquids that could splash into the area during your clean! #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile

01.01.2022 Dental care for babies and toddlers is just as important as dental care for adults. Even though your little ones only keep their baby teeth for a few years, any damage or decay caused to these teeth can impact overall health and even speech development. Make sure to start early and begin brushing routines as soon as your baby has their first tooth. :) #AthertonFamilyDental #AthertonQLD #HappyHealthySmile
