If your teeth could talk, what would they say?

Greetings, from all us at Times Square Dental! We hope you’re enjoying the summer and good oral health.

Today, our team of dental professionals here in Boise, ID want to talk to you about how your teeth speak to Dr. Hastings, Dr. Dial, and the rest of our trained staff. When you come in for a routine dental cleaning and exam, we can gather certain things about your life and your habits without you having to say a word.

That’s because so much of what we do on a daily basis can be reflected in the state of our teeth and gums. So let’s look at a few of the things your teeth might say to us about you, if your teeth could talk!

Cultures all over the world have been obsessed with porcelain for centuries. Known for its strength and delicacy, porcelain has been used to craft fine works of art, pottery, and china.

But in the last several years, porcelain has made its way into your mouth, and it’s just as stunning as ever.

Crafted from porcelain, dental veneers are one of modern dentistry’s hottest commodities for their durability and beauty. These powerful porcelain shells bond to your teeth to cover up minor imperfections on your teeth and in your smile.
