Dr. Tsiatis Brings Clearview Dental to Bayside

On March 1, 2009, Dr. Tsiatis launched his new practice as Clearview Dental in Bayside. The new location was custom-designed and renovated to be a modern, comfortable office that delivers the most modern treatments to patients: exactly what he had envisioned. The new office will be identical to the old practice in terms of hours, staff, policies and quality of care, but also has upgraded equipment and is conveniently located on Northern Boulevard, just east of the Clearview Expressway. Dr. Tsiatis and the entire Clearview Dental staff look forward to continuing to help you and your family keep your smiles healthy and bright.

Live Longer!

Gum disease can contribute to illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes and even pneumonia. An ever-growing body of scientific evidence shows a direct link from the bacteria and its inflammatory agents from the mouth to these and other diseases. This bacterial attack on the body can be minimized with better home care, including proper brushing and flossing. Adults often unknowingly have gum disease, because it is rarely uncomfortable until its later stages. To help avoid gum disease:

• Have your teeth checked by a dentist twice a year. However if you smoke, have periodontal disease or diabetes you may need to be checked every 3 months.
• Avoid snacking on sugary foods, they cause an increase in bacteria and acidity.
• Brush at least twice a day, and floss properly every day.

Do You Require Antibiotic Premedication For Your Dental Appointments?

A new standard by the American Heart Association was released in June, 2007 which recommends that premedication is no longer necessary for mitral valve prolapse or heart murmurs in most cases. Please check with us and with your physician prior to your appointment if you have any question.

Would You Like to Prevent Decay and Reduce Sensitivity?

A revolutionary paste applied to the teeth can help: MI Paste.

Applied to your teeth after brushing and flossing, it supplies the teeth with a pool of minerals which are naturally found in teeth. These minerals flow into the tooth, helping undo some of the damage caused by plaque and by the acids found in foods.

This helps keep the enamel intact thus reducing decay and sensitivity. And it tastes delicious!

Dr. Tsiatis believes this can benefit virtually every patient. It is especially helpful for patients with a high cavity rate, for patients with braces, and for patients after whitening their teeth. Or if you want to do the most for your teeth in prevention, you can add this to your home care.

Dr. Tsiatis is now offering the MI Paste for $15 per tube. Schedule a preventive appointment for your dental exam and cleaning and please let us know if you would like to try the MI Paste.

Make your teeth feel better.
