Stress manifests itself in many different ways. For some people, it begins and ends with anxious thoughts, but for others, it can express itself physically.

September 30, 2016
If your little one loves chewing gum but also complains of headaches, we’ve got news for you. A recent study suggests a link between the two — especially in young children. The research published in Pediatric Neurology showed the effects of chewing gum on 30 kids who complained of chronic headaches. The same kids also chewed gum from one to six hours per day. When they stopped chewing gum, 19 reported that their headaches went away completely. Seven others said their head pain was less frequent or less intense. Once they returned to chewing, the same 26 children said their headaches returned!

Your 55318 Dentist Discusses Fillings
July 19, 2016
One of the most common restorative dentistry procedure performed by your 55318 dentist at Chaska Dental Center is a filling to repair a tooth with decay. For centuries, cavities were filled with metals—gold or silver, typically. Then, during the later part of the 1800s, dentists discovered that a stronger material resulted when several metals were combined with the aid of mercury. These amalgam fillings were used for the better part of the 20th century. Now, however, dentists have another choice, Amalgam-free fillings, also called tooth-colored fillings or white fillings, provide equal strength without the cosmetic and health disadvantages that plagued amalgam fillings.
