I have been a patient of Dr Juan Lopez for many years. He is the best! I needed an implant and the results were awesome! No problems whatsoever with it. It look great! I would recommend him and his staff if you are looking for a dentist. They are friendly, kind, and caring. I have never been disappointed in any procedure I have had there. A shout out to my hygienist Jennifer! She is awesome and deserves a raise! 😁

It won’t be long before Halloween is here. It’s a great time to indulge in treats. But what if you’ve got braces? Does that mean you can’t eat any candy?
Fortunately, the answer is no. It is best, though, to stick to chocolate treats. Unlike hard or sticky candies, you don’t have to worry about most chocolate damaging your braces or getting stuck in them. You may need to be careful, though, if chocolate contains large nuts. Those can get caught in braces.
You can get some great tips on eating with braces by watching this short video. For example, cut the crust off of pizza before enjoying a slice.
At our office, you can straighten your smile with traditional braces, Six Month Smiles (braces that correct cosmetic issues, often in just a few months), or clear aligners (Invisalign or ClearCorrect). If you’ve already got braces, we’ll help you take great care of your smile!
