A Few Success Stories We’d Like To Share With You

Patient Testimonials, Smiles by Holsinger & Higgins

Everyday we see how dentistry transforms people’s lives. While many patients just come in for their regular cleanings and exams and don’t encounter dental issues, there are patients who have conditions that cause pain or affect how they chew food. Then there are patients who wish they could change the look of their teeth and are embarrassed to smile. We are happy that we are able to use our dental skills and technology to improve their teeth, restore their dental health and boost their confidence. We’d like to introduce you to some of these patients.

Night Guard Care

One of the ways we treat temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is through the use of a night guard. Patients find relief from symptoms such as jaw, head and facial pain after wearing the night guard while they sleep. The more they wear the appliance, the better their jaw feels and functions. Since the night guard has an important job to do, we’ve included guidelines on how to care for it properly.

Are You Afraid of the Dentist?

Does the very thought of going to the dentist send shivers down your spine? You may be suffering from dental anxiety or phobia. This can be caused by a traumatic dental or healthcare experience, or generalized anxiety and phobias. Some people could experience this as a slight nervousness, but for others, a trip to the dentist can be an actual nightmare that prevents them from getting appropriate treatment.

Do You Or A Loved One Snore?
