Your child may have tons of fancy new school supplies, the latest, coolest wardrobe, and sports equipment for the upcoming school year, but do they have a healthy mouth? What about all the tools and skills they will need to maintain it? Our Lincoln Dentist for Children shares her ideas on preparing kids for school and will help ensure that dental problems do not interfere with school performance.
Our Lincoln Dentist for Children says: “According to the American Dental Association, an examination for oral health performed by a dentist is just as important as the immunizations and booster shots children need. A dental exam and cleaning should be incorporated into any checklist that parents make to help them and their child(ren) prepare for the upcoming school year. Tooth decay affects more U.S. children than any other chronic or infectious disease, as noted by statistics that were posted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nearly 20 percent of children, ages 2 to 19 years old, have some form of untreated tooth decay. Dental pain and or disease can lead to difficulty in many tasks, including eating, speaking, playing, and learning and countless hours of missed school.”
Your Lincoln Dentist for Children states that a back-to-school checklist should always consist of:
#1. Regular, routine dental examinations to diagnose, treat, or prevent any dental problems.
Catching dental problems early on can save your child from pain and missed school, and in turn, it can save parents money. Parents and teachers often may not realize there’s a dental problem, so regular checkups are critical. Your Lincoln Dentist for Children may suggest fluoride treatments or sealants that can help prevent decay. Routine brushing with fluoride toothpaste, along with flossing, can help to prevent further decay. If your child has bad breath, read more here.
#2. Make life easy, and while you are out shopping for school, be sure to head for the dental care aisle either before or after getting those awesome new notebooks, binders, and pencils.
If parents buy several toothbrushes, it’s much easier and more convenient to have their child change to a new toothbrush roughly every three months. It is also important to remember to switch your child’s toothbrushes after being ill. If remembering when to change toothbrushes becomes a daunting task, replace it every time your child’s report card comes out. Also, your Lincoln Dentist for Children will gladly give you recommendations on timelines for changing your child’s toothbrush if you prefer to have his/her input.
#3. Eat healthy lunches and snacks.
Be sure to include portable, healthy lunch items and snacks in your child’s sack lunch. Those items can consist of grains, milk, cheese, raw vegetables, yogurt, or even fruit. If your child eats breakfast or lunch in the school cafeteria, review healthy, balanced food choices with him or her before the first day of school. Another great tip is to cut back on soft drinks and sugary foods.Read more about the importance of healthy lunches here.
#4. Wearing a properly fitted mouthguard while participating in PE classes, organized sports, or even playground activities can prove to be very beneficial.
Your Lincoln Dentist for Children can make custom, affordable mouthguards at any of our Nebraska Family Dentistry locations. The price for a well-fitted, custom mouthguard is only $75.
#5. Preventing decay and gum disease is essential for overall wellness.
Did you know that kids as early as 12 years of age can show signs of gum disease? Cavities can strike kids as soon as their first tooth comes in, affecting their immune system and overall well-being. Children who develop plaque quickly or have braces might benefit from cleanings every 3-4 months to prevent gum disease and developing cavities.
Braces and orthodontic treatment will help correct crowding and prevent dental disease. Some kids can benefit from Invisalign (clear braces), and summer is a great time to start treatment. The option of “invisible braces” is popular with teenagers and has many benefits over wearing traditional metal braces.
At Nebraska Family Dentistry, we know that each parent trusts us to provide a safe and healthy atmosphere for their child(ren). Part of our responsibility to each of you is to provide the highest infection control standards to ensure your child’s safety and health.
We follow every infection control recommendation from these authoritative sources:

What Makes a Very High-Quality Best Denture?
Many people will find themselves needing dentures at some point in their lives. Often times this is a sensitive situation, and many people will feel embarrassed over their need for dentures. They want to get a pair of dentures right away and don’t give enough time or thought to the quality and appearance of the dentures. But those are the two biggest factors you should consider when choosing a denturist, as the resulting product is something you will be using and wearing day in and day out for years to come. A high-quality, properly fitted denture can save you embarrassment, time, and money in the long run, and yet many people still cling to the notion that cheaper and faster is better. So why isn’t the cheap, fast denture the way to go?
Economic Denture
It may seem like a great way to save some money and get a serviceable product right away, but there is a reason that cheap dentures are cheap. Many cheap dentures are ill-fitting right off the bat or lose their fit after only a few weeks of use, and many don’t stand up against daily wear and tear, losing their color and appearance. Dentures made in these offices aren’t created specifically for the wearer, they come from a process that closely resembles an assembly line. Denturists will measure and fit your mouth, but they use pre-manufactured, stock denture bases, and teeth that may or may not fit perfectly.
That isn’t to say that cheap denture offices don’t care about you, they just understand that their clientele wants inexpensive dentures in a hurry. They just don’t have the time to properly fit and create a quality product under those conditions. And while you might end up with serviceable dentures from this process if your mouth doesn’t naturally fit the stock denture options, there isn’t much that can be done by these denturists to fix the issues and custom fit your mouth. So you may end up saving money and time upfront, but if you’re too embarrassed to wear these ill-fitting dentures, is it really worth it?
Cosmetic Denture
The best bet for finding a pair of quality dentures is to have a pair created for you by an experienced denturist that can create a custom pair of dentures for your mouth. Custom dentures are fitted and manufactured specifically for you, and denturists will work hard to match the individual size, shade, and shape of your teeth so that the resulting dentures look natural and fit comfortably. Custom dentures also last longer because they fit with your mouth perfectly and aren’t rubbing or grinding, and the materials used in the custom manufacturing process are of a higher quality.
It may take a bit more time and a bit more cost, but having a pair of custom dentures created specifically for your mouth is a worthy investment. Your resulting dentures will look better, feel more comfortable, and last longer than any cheap pair you might find, and the confidence you’ll gain from having an amazing smile once again is priceless.
Flexible Patient Denture
Dentures are a traditional method used by dentists to replace one or multiple missing teeth. They are a removable plate that holds artificial teeth, which is then inserted into the mouth. The artificial teeth are positioned in a way that they fill the gap where the missing tooth or teeth were originally located. This can be a partial replacement or a complete one. As well as helping you replace your missing tooth, dentures can provide other benefits to your life too.
One of the main advantages of wearing dentures is the confidence it can give to you. When you are missing a tooth, you’ll find it difficult to eat properly, and it will understandably affect your self-esteem. This can stop you from smiling and eating out in public. A well-fitted partial or complete denture can help you feel better about your appearance and even enhance it. It can also give you the confidence to eat in front of others again. This can give you a new start and make you a friendlier and more self-assured person as a result.
Not only that, but your dentures can also help you live a healthier lifestyle. You may not have been eating the right foods due to the pain or discomfort caused by your tooth loss. This could mean your body isn’t getting the proper nutrients and vitamins it needs to function correctly. With the help of your new dentures, you can start eating better which will improve your overall health. It will also make it easier to clean and floss your teeth each day and remove unwanted plaque and bacteria.
While there are countless benefits to using dentures, like most things they can vary significantly in quality. While it can be tempting to save money where you can, this won’t always give you the best results. Low quality or ill-fitting dentures can cause discomfort and pain when chewing and talking. They often look fake and are more noticeable to others. They can also alter your face shape, by making it look sunken and less attractive. In comparison, high-quality dentures are durable, comfortable to wear and look natural. Their custom fit will also stop them from falling out and keep you looking your absolute best.
Dentures can be made from some different materials, so it can be hard to choose the right one. Porcelain and acrylic resin tend to be the materials that many dentists favor. Each has its pros and cons. Porcelain, for example, is durable and can last for a long time. But they can also get chipped, need careful handling, and thorough cleaning. Acrylic causes little damage to your other teeth and can resist unsightly staining. However, they don’t last as long and can wear down, altering the size of the artificial tooth. It’s vital that you consider the pros and cons of each before deciding which one will work best.

Preventative dental care is essential for patients of all ages, but it is crucial for children. If minor dental problems aren’t treated, it increases the risk of developing complex dental concerns. Preventative dental care is an excellent way to combat this issue and can start seeing the dentist as early as age one.
Primary Teeth are Important for Chewing
When babies are born, their primary teeth have already been developed. Most infants get their first tooth between 6 months and 1 year of age, but this varies. Even when a child doesn’t have teeth, their gums can still be cleaned using a soft, wet cloth. As soon as a tooth appears, it is good to start cleaning it with a toothbrush.
Primary teeth are crucial to a child’s development, and they open up a whole new world of food and chewing. Primary teeth also help your child speak properly, and they hold space for permanent teeth. While a gummy smile is cute on an infant, a toothy toddler is just as precious.
Preventing Decay and Gum Disease is Important for Overall Wellness
Did you know that kids as early as 12 years of age can show signs of gum disease? Cavities can strike kids as soon as their first tooth comes in, affecting their immune system and overall well-being. Children who develop plaque quickly or have braces might benefit from cleanings every 3-4 months to aid in the prevention of gum disease and developing cavities.
Braces and orthodontic treatment will help correct crowding and prevent dental disease. Some kids can benefit from Invisalign® (clear braces) and summer is always a great time to start treatment. The option of invisible braces is popular with teenagers and has many benefits over wearing traditional metal braces.
First Dental Visit – What Age Should Kids See A Dentist?
Children should have their first dental visit between 1 and 2 years of age. At this check-up, dental professionals will look for cavities and discuss fluoride and other habits like thumb sucking or sleeping with a bottle. After their first visit, children should see the dentist at least every six months.
What Age Should Kids See a Dentist? Dental Visits for School-Aged Children: Ensure Better School Performance
Did you know dental disease causes children to miss more than 51 million school hours each year? A great way to avoid dental disease is to visit the dentist and for children to brush twice a day for 2 minutes in addition to flossing.

This family dentist sees kids of all ages and their parents.
Dental work and pregnancy questions are very common for any mom-to-be. Annual exams and preventive dental cleanings while pregnant are safe and strongly recommended. We’ll discuss why, here. Our article at a glance will answer the following questions and more:
Is dental work safe during pregnancy?
Can you have a dental filling done while pregnant?
Can a tooth infection harm my unborn baby?
Should you avoid the dentist when pregnant?
A change or rise in hormone levels while pregnant causes the gums to bleed, swell and trap food, irritating them. It is essential to receive preventive dental work during pregnancy to avoid oral infections like gum disease, which have been linked to preterm births.
What about dental concerns such as fillings and crowns?
Dental work while pregnant, such as crowns and cavity fillings, should be treated, thus helping reduce any chance of infection. If dental work must be done during pregnancy, the second trimester is ideal. You can read more information about fetal development here: http://americanpregnancy.org/while pregnant/second-trimester/. Once you have arrived at your third trimester, it might be challenging to lie on your back in a dental chair for an extended period. At this point, the safest course of action is to postpone any unnecessary dental work until after the birth of your child.
Studies are currently conflicting about possible adverse effects on the developing baby from medications used during dental work and pregnancy. Learn more here: https://americanpregnancy.org/medication/. Typically, Lidocaine is the most commonly used drug for dental work during pregnancy. Lidocaine (Category B) does not cross through the placenta after it has been administered. There are additional facts that can be obtained from here: Medication and Pregnancy:: American Pregnancy Association.
Should you need dental work, anesthesia amounts should be administered in as little dose as possible, yet receiving enough to make you comfortable for the procedure. If you experience discomfort, you must request additional numbing medication. Being comfortable reduces the amount of stress felt by both yourself and your child. Also, the more comfortable and relaxed you are, the easier it is for the anesthesia medication to work.
Often, dental work requires antibiotics to treat and prevent infections. Antibiotics such as Amoxicillin, Penicillin, and Clindamycin (which are labeled as “Category B” for safety during pregnancy), might be prescribed after your procedure has been completed.
Dental Work during Pregnancy: Are dental x-rays safe during pregnancy?
What about x-rays done during pregnancy for dental work?
Routine x-rays typically taken during your annual dental exam can often be done after delivery of the baby. https://americanpregnancy.org/healthy-pregnancy/is-it-safe/x-rays-during-pregnancy-1189/. However, it is essential to know that x-rays are necessary to perform many dentistry procedures, especially those of an emergency nature. Something important to know is that according to the American College of Radiology, there is no single diagnostic x-ray that has a radiation dose significant enough to cause adverse effects in a developing fetus or embryo. According to the ADA and ACOG, having dental X-rays during pregnancy considered safe.
One vital thing to note that when receiving any x-ray is that the appropriate shielding is always necessary to help deflect any scatter radiation. During pregnancy, this would include shielding of the abdomen and thyroid. However, any good dental practice will shield you regardless of being pregnant or male versus female. It’s good practice to protect all anatomy near radiation to reduce the amount of dose you receive over time.
Should you avoid the dentist altogether while pregnant?
Some women might elect to avoid all dental work during the first trimester. The first trimester is the most vulnerable time of fetal development. However, there has been no evidence suggesting harm to the baby for those that elect to visit the dentist during this time.
Also, if non-emergency dental work arises during the third trimester, it should be put on hold. Doing so will help avoid a period of prolonged time lying on your back and the risk of premature labor.
Suggestions for addressing your oral care during pregnancy:
It is also vital that you have preventive dental exams and cleanings during pregnancy.
Be sure to let your dentist know what you are expecting.
Postpone all non-emergency dental work until the second trimester or even after delivery, if at all possible. Postpone any elective procedure until after delivery.
Maintain healthy circulation while sitting in the dental chair by keeping legs uncrossed.
Bring a pillow to help keep yourself and the baby more comfortable (Nebraska Family Dentistry locations offer many amenities to keep you comfortable during your appointment).
If you are still unsure about dental work during pregnancy, be sure to visit with your “dentist near me in Lincoln, NE,” and they can help guide you on a safe journey. We’ve also included some of the most commonly asked questions to help you make a more informed decision regarding dental work during pregnancy.
Commonly Asked Questions about Dental Work during Pregnancy:
Is dental anesthesia safe during pregnancy?
According to the ADA (American Dental Association), diagnostic, preventative, and restorative dental treatment is safe. Local anesthetics such as lidocaine and bupivacaine can be used during pregnancy. However, it is always a good idea to check with your dentist to be sure the treatment you are considering is safe for both yourself and the baby.
Can dental problems affect pregnancy?
There is evidence that some dental problems can affect a developing baby. There is a strong correlation between gum disease in pregnant women and preterm births. If you have dental concerns and are expecting, be sure to address them with your dental provider.
Can a tooth infection harm my unborn baby?
When left untreated, gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) can lead to a more severe infection within the gums and surrounding bone. Ultimately, periodontal disease can lead to bone and tooth loss. A mother who has active tooth decay can spread this same bacteria to an unborn child.
Is seeing the dentist necessary while pregnant?
Why is it so essential to go to the dentist while pregnant?
Dental care and pregnancy go hand in hand. Dental care during pregnancy is vital because of a change in hormones; there is an increased risk of developing gum disease. In turn, gum disease can affect the health of your baby.
Conclusion:
While this isn’t a complete list of dental work during pregnancy questions, it’s a good start. An excellent way to ensure that you maintain excellent oral health throughout pregnancy is to have routine check-ups and cleanings.

-How do I find a reputable dentist or the “best dentist near me in Lincoln, NE?” We have a few helpful tips.
-What qualities will a good dentist possess? We have hints.
-How does technology affect dental visits? We will explain!
Anyone can likely find a dentist by merely driving around town. But, to find “the best dentist near me in Lincoln, NE,” you’ll probably need to put in a tad more work.
Although some would agree that any location of Nebraska Family Dentistry is incredible, we know that not everyone feels this way. Everyone defines “best” differently, and therefore, what’s the “best” to one person might not be the “best” to another person.
It’s important to realize there while there may be an office that is a “perfect” fit for one person, that exact same office might not be at all suitable for another. There could be various reasons that an office isn’t a good fit. Your decision could hinge on office location, whether or not a provider is in-network with your dental insurance or even dental clinic hours. In this article, we’ll outline some positive attributes of what makes a great dental office. We’ll also outline some things that patients can look for when searching for a new dental office.
How do I find the “best dentist near me?”
One of the easiest ways is to ask around! Ask for referrals to get some insights from friends and family. You can also look for reviews that are online to see what others have shared. In some cases, online opinions might want to be taken with a grain of salt. Some of the statements in online reviews can be misleading and, in some cases, are more “personal” versus general. Another thing to look for is dentists that are willing to submit claims to your insurance. While this isn’t all you should look for: we do have other things listed below to help you in your search for the “best dentist near me.”
What Qualities Set Some Dental Providers and Offices Apart From their Competition?
What’s the quality of their care?
Advice from Your Lincoln dentist:
Generally, this is one of the most important deciding factors for many patients. Everyone deserves to have the highest quality clinical care available. The mark of a skilled clinical team could be a dental group that offers multiple locations. Aside from offering numerous locations, these clinics also have multiple dental providers. Bigger group practices typically have higher standards for patient care, thus ensuring consistency for all patients. Ultimately, patients will have a better experience when the entire team can work together. In the end, this creates a friendly and balanced atmosphere.
What is the experience and education of the dental provider you are considering? Your Lincoln dentist answers:
Every dental college shapes many exceptionally skilled dental providers with every graduating class. These dentists might practice for many years throughout their career, becoming more skilled in one particular discipline of dentistry. Every dentist has their weaknesses and strengths-based upon their general aptitude and clinical experience within certain areas of dentistry. In practice with multiple dentists, it is more likely that patients will receive exceptional care because these dentists can refer patients to one another. Also, in the event of a more complicated case, our dentists can consult with one another. At Nebraska Family Dentistry, aside from multiple locations, we also have various dentists in Lincoln, NE that work together regularly to deliver outstanding clinical care to every patient.
How does the dental office team treat you?
Is the technology they use modern? Your Lincoln dentist explains why this is very important.
Dentistry changes daily with new techniques and instruments being introduced to help improve patient comfort and treatment outcomes. With all of these advances in dental technology, dentists in Lincoln, NE, can give patients the most accurate diagnosis and excellent treatment. When looking for a new dental home and the “best dentist near me,” be sure to check out your potential dentist’s office technology. An office that has newer technology is excellent. Often, it means that they are up-to-date with the latest advancements in dentistry.
As we all know, going to any office with an unhelpful, rude team is most definitely something no patient ever wants to experience. No matter where you do business, people should always be treated with compassion and respect by a friendly team who is genuinely there to help you. The best dental offices have a warm, sincere and caring team that wants nothing but all the best for you.
Is the office clean and calm?
Your Lincoln dentist will explain how we created a clean and comfortable atmosphere.
Patients tend to always feel more confident and comfortable in a dental environment that is well-lit, clean, and smells good. For several patients, the smells that are associated with dentistry can add to their anxiety. At all of our Nebraska Family Dentistry locations, we use aromatherapy. Aromatherapy helps minimize clinical odors during hours of patient care. Patients can relax in our clean, comfortable treatment rooms with headphones, blankets, and sunglasses during their appointment. The best dental offices offer thoughtful touches like those just mentioned to help create a relaxing atmosphere for patients of all ages. When searching for your new dental home, be sure to see what the office as a whole can provide.
Patient Experience Before/After Appointment:
A top-notch dental office will provide helpful information on their website(s). Also, they will make requesting appointments easy by allowing online scheduling. What else would they offer? Another thing that many top-notch offices offer is 24/7 emergency care. Many will say that some of the best dentists are available on weekends and after-hours. Although this might not define “the best dentist” for everyone, it’s certainly helpful when it comes to making the final decision.
Does the office file insurance claims on your behalf?
Your Lincoln dentist explains how this helps patients complete care:
Dental offices that want patients to file their insurance claims are not doing their patients any favors in the department of customer service. Unfortunately, this is something that you will see in offices that don’t have adequate staffing to handle billing and insurance for their patients. Ultimately, this creates more obstacles and can, in turn, prevent patients from getting the care and treatment they need and deserve. More often than not, insurance companies require documentation and follow-up with many claims. In the end, patients will be spending a good deal of time on the phone with their insurance company. At Nebraska Family Dentistry, we know that our patients are busy, and dealing with any insurance company could create a challenge. Generally, insurance companies are more likely to accept claims sent by trained staff at dental offices versus patients themselves. An excellent question to ask when looking for a new dentist in Lincoln is whether or not they are willing to handle insurance claims on your behalf.
Is your dentist kind and caring? Your Lincoln dentist on how providers can help patients relax:
The best dentists have an excellent chair-side manner.
Have you ever tried to have a conversation with your dentist while they are working on you? Most of the time, they try to make small talk, but we all know that this is challenging when you have instruments and hands in your mouth!
It was encouraged that dentists make lots of small talk to bond and connect with patients in the past. Although it is important to be cheerful and friendly with patients, it is just as effective to allow patients to do what they feel is comfortable. While at the dentist, some patients don’t feel like talking. In that case, they should be allowed to have conversations focused on the task at hand: their dental care. Other patients enjoy visiting with the dental team and doctors while they are at the office. Others will say that the “best dentist near me” offers distractions like music and TV along with sedation dentistry to help you relax.
How affordable is the treatment?
Your Lincoln dentist offers solutions:
Finances are most definitely a factor when it comes to proceeding with any dental treatment. At Nebraska Family Dentistry, we realize that all patients have expenses beyond their dental treatment. When searching, patients need to find a dental office that maximizes value. Patients need an affordable price, one that they are able and willing to pay. Patients need to find an office that will give them an estimate for treatment, which will allow them to be prepared for any financial obligation. Dentists in Lincoln, NE that offer different payment plans and those who work with multiple insurance companies can help reduce patients’ overall costs. Offices that offer substantially lower prices beyond the offices with more competitive rates must make sacrifices to stay profitable. More expensive dental treatment isn’t necessarily better. Instead, competitive offices in pricing with other providers within the same area are typically a safe, reasonable bet.
What sets Nebraska Family Dentistry apart from other dental clinics in the Lincoln, NE area?
