Our team at Stiles Dentistry is excited to announce that we recently completed training on the new iTero technology! iTero allows us to scan patients’ teeth and avoid having to take messy, goopy impressions. It also helps us to achieve more accurate and precise data so that we can provide the best dentistry to our patients.
If you have any questions about our new iTero system or your dental health, feel free to give us a call or ask us on Facebook! Have a great Presidents’ Day weekend!
Did you know February is American Heart Month? It’s a great time to take notice of the health of your heart, say Drs. Dennis and Marie Stiles. Cardiovascular disease remains American’s number one killer, according to the American Heart Association. Studies have shown a correlation between gum disease and heart disease, underscoring the importance of good oral health care.
Visiting our office on a regular basis can help prevent gum disease or at least catch it in its early stages. And because people with dental insurance are more likely to visit their dentist when they should, a healthy mouth begins with a visit to . In observance of Heart Month, Drs. Stiles know it’s also important to know your numbers: blood pressure (less than 120/80), cholesterol (less than 200) and BMI (less than 25). If you have any questions about heart health, or about your treatment at Stiles Dentistry, please give us a call today.

Are you drowsy during the day? Do you snore loudly, or wake up breathless in the middle of the night? If so, you may be affected by sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a condition in which breathing stops periodically during sleep, as many as 20-30 times per hour. If you suffer from sleep apnea, each time your breathing stops, the resulting lack of oxygen alerts your brain, which temporarily wakes you up to restart proper breathing. This leaves one feeling tired during the day, even though he or she thought that they had a good night’s sleep.
At Stiles Dentistry, we are able to help those who have been diagnosed with sleep apnea. A recent patient at our office was treated with an oral sleep apnea device to help control his symptoms. An oral sleep apnea appliance can be used to position the mouth in such a way that prevents throat blockage. Just see what he has to say:
To learn more about how our office can help you with your sleep apnea, give us a call or ask us at your next appointment. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Here at Stiles Dentistry, we realize the importance of taking steps to minimize our waste and environmental impact. Did you know that we offer patients account access 24 hours a day, seven days a week? You can even fill out your medical history and new patient forms online! This eliminates the need for a paper form, and helps keep your health information confidential. In 2012, our practice will be transitioning to become 100% paperless. We’re also now offering Stiles Dentistry reusable bags. Be sure to ask Drs. Dennis and Marie Stiles for one at your next appointment!
Today, we’d also like to ask you: are you taking any steps to minimize your ecological footprint this year? If so, we would love to hear your story here or on our Facebook page!
