What To Expect When Wearing Dentures For The First Time

Ackley Dental Group, Restorative Dentistry

Have you recently made the decision to get dentures to replace some or all of your missing teeth? You are not alone in your choice as millions of Americans wear dentures, making this treatment one of the most popular tooth replacement options. Dentures have come a long way over the years and are now lightweight and closely mimic the look and feel of natural teeth. The first step in your denture journey is to meet with our staff to determine which dentures are best for your personal needs. You may need partial dentures, metal-free partials, full dentures, or implant retained dentures.

We could not be more excited for summer! We hope you are enjoying the long summer days, and time with your loved ones, especially after so much was cancelled or postponed last summer. With all the summer fun, it is important to remember that accidents can happen at any time. After dealing with everything that we did during the pandemic, we feel that it is important to be prepared and to expect the unexpected. It always seems that an emergency occurs when you least expect it and at the most inopportune time. We wanted to share some important information to remember if you find yourself or a loved one dealing with a dental emergency. Read on to learn more.

Are Your Teeth Sensitive?

Have you been enjoying the warm Florida weather? Now that June is upon us, our warm weather is slowly changing to what many would describe as hot. Nothing feels better on a hot summer day than a nice, cold drink, delicious ice cream treat, or frosty popsicle. If you suffer from tooth sensitivity, you likely do not share this sentiment. In fact, eating or biting anything cold can immediately bring discomfort to your teeth. Tooth sensitivity can also occur when eating or drinking something hot, brushing teeth, and flossing your teeth.

No matter if the reason is due to decay or an accident, missing teeth can affect multiple aspects of life, from appearance to speech and the ability to enjoy favorite foods.

Dental implants are the popular choice among many of our patients and offer numerous benefits.

It’s Time To Celebrate!

Ackley Dental Group, Team

May is an exciting time for many. It’s the month of Memorial day, which tells us that summer is right around the corner. It means that school is coming to an end for the year, and plans for family trips and outings start to take shape. The excitement is building for lazy days filled with cookouts with family and friends, swimming, beach days, and all of the enjoyments of summer. Our office has even more reason to celebrate this May—it’s our 40th Anniversary. We are proud to announce that we have been serving the Spring Hill community since 1981! Continue reading to learn more about how excited we are to celebrate this anniversary with our wonderful patients.

The Benefits Of Choosing An Out-Of-Network Dentist

Ackley Dental Group, Patient Education

Has our practice been recommended to you, but you are hesitant to make an appointment because we are considered out-of-network with your dental insurance? Or do you not have insurance and are fearful of having needed dental work completed due to the overall cost? Insurance is a great option for many of our patients, but lack of insurance or our practice being out-of-network does not mean that we cannot provide the services you need. In fact, many times our patients with dental insurance are actually limited to accepting the care the insurance provider will pay for instead of the treatments they truly need.

The Biggest Reasons Why You Should Replace Missing Teeth

Are you missing a tooth or teeth and are deciding if it is worthwhile to replace them or just leave them as is? We know that there are many reasons patients are missing teeth, whether it be from an accident, dental decay, gum disease, or injury to the mouth. We also know that it can be very difficult to decide which tooth replacement method is right for your lifestyle and budget. We would hate to see any of our patients delay choosing a tooth replacement method as it can cause permanent damage to the mouth. Continue reading to learn more about why it is important to replace missing teeth and why it can be so damaging if you don’t.
