Are your teeth sensitive?

A good majority of the guests I've seen over the past 6 years have one or more teeth that are sensitive to a variety of stimulants.  It is also the number one complaint or concern that guests have.  Cold and hot liquids or food are the usual cause, however for some people it can even be chewing or simply touching the tooth. This can be challenging during a dental cleaning, for both the guest and the hygienist.  It is often hard for the guest to tell if the pain sensation is coming from their tissue or their tooth.  

BPA free fillings

Here at Incredible Smiles we pride ourselves in using the best known materials on the market. BPA or Bisphenol-A is becoming a very well known substance to stay away from. Growing scientific evidence has linked the chemical to a host of problems, including cancer, sexual dysfunction and heart disease. Federal officials say they are particularly concerned about BPA's effect on the development of fetuses, infants and young children. 

Mmmmmmm..... Summer produce at the Boulder Farmer’s Market

It’s that time of year again. All the locals are headed down to the Boulder Farmer’s Market to indulge in the amazing selection of freshly picked treats. Rhubarb, beets, strawberries, peaches, squash blossoms, green beans, bok choy, and the list goes on. I look forward to summer produce all year long, not to mention seeing the entire community outside enjoying the sun and Boulder Creek.
