Causes of tooth decay may include: poor dental hygiene, improper nutrition, deep tooth grooves, sugary/acidic food and drinks, tooth grinding and age.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry highly recommends parents to take their child to the dentist by age 1 or within six months after the first tooth erupts. Primary teeth typically begin growing in around the first 6 months. Please click here to obtain more information from the AAPD.

Bruxism is the involuntary grinding of teeth when a person is asleep. Many individuals grind their teeth at night and are not aware that they are doing so.

We can fabricate a custom fitted night guard for a comfortable night’s rest.
