How to Reach Your 2023 Smile Goals | Farmington Dental & Ortho

Whether you desire a brighter smile, a straighter smile, a healthier smile, or all of the above, here are some tips to help you achieve your smile goals this year!

Make a List of Your Top Goals

First, start by writing down what your goals are. This will help you narrow down the next steps you should take. Simple steps could involve switching to an electric toothbrush or setting a two-minute timer when brushing. Bigger steps could involve making adjustments to your diet or tweaking your monthly budget so you can invest in a certain treatment at your dentist’s office.

Prioritize Your Oral Hygiene Routine

No matter what your smile goals are, you will always be better off by flossing every day and brushing your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time, using small gentle circles to clean the entire surface of each tooth.

Use an Electric Toothbrush

Electric toothbrushes are recommended by dentists everywhere because they’re both effective and easy to use. Even though they’re pricier than manual toothbrushes, electric toothbrushes are long-lasting and can make brushing your teeth feel less like a chore.

Talk to Your Dentist

Dreaming of a whiter smile or straighter teeth? Schedule a consultation with your dentist to determine the right treatment plan for you.

Budget Accordingly

During your consultation, your dentist should provide you with a cost estimate of your treatments so have an idea of your anticipated out-of-pocket expenses. At Farmington Dental & Orthodontics, we offer flexible financing to make your treatments as affordable as possible!

Visit a Dental Office That Offers Comprehensive Services

When your dental office offers a variety of dental services to cater to your unique needs, you don’t have to shuttle between offices to get the oral healthcare you need. You can get general, cosmetic, restorative, and emergency dental services under one roof at Farmington Dental & Orthodontics! We also offer sedation dentistry and comprehensive orthodontics.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the time I walked through the door I was treated with understanding & kindness. Everyone that I dealt with are very knowledgeable, patient & kind. I had avoided dentists longer than I care to admit but once I found Nick Dollar I will never look for another dentist. I recommend his office to ANYONE who is looking for a dentist. No one asked me to give a review...I did it because I truly believe in his work, people skills & staff is top notch. I usually dont take this kind of time for reviews but they are worth it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So I’ve neglected going to the dentist for half my life and I decided to go here because this was the last place I went when I was 16. They still had me on file, Toni at the front desk was more than helpful. Full of laughter. The coffee machine was on point. And Ashley in the back made the scary experience enjoyable and full of positives that I will surely carry with me. See y’all at my deep clean.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been going to Farmington Dental for years and have never had a negative experience. I only write this review now because I had a particularly helpful visit. While there for a routine cleaning, I got to talking with Kristin about the microbiology classes I teach. She made some observations that inspired me to approach the latter half of the semester differently, and it was a super helpful change! I guess all that is to say that the workers are competent...but also pleasant and helpful. :P

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had traumatic dental experiences in the past and am unfortunately one of those people who require a little more juice to get fully numbed. Farmington Dental not only managed to numb me completely but also prescribed an anxiety medication for the visit which helped ease the tension of getting in the chair. This is one of two dental experiences I can remember without experiencing pain and the other experience I was asleep. I’ll definitely be going back.
