Here are some essential nutrients and their natural sources to help your child stay healthy this summer: Vitamin A

    Teen Health Isn't Child's Play

    The teenage years are fraught with developmental milestones and a growing desire for independence. As a parent, you want them to grow up and make smart decisions about their health and body. When it comes to your teen’s mouth, there are still some things you should keep an eye on to make sure they have every advantage heading into adulthood. Wisdom Teeth-
    Wisdom teeth develop under the gum by around age 13 and usually poke through between the ages of 17-21. Sometimes they need to be extracted because your teen’s mouth is too small, or they aren’t coming in upright. This can make them crooked or impacted.

  • Space Maintainers: A Short Term Solution May Prevent Long Term Problems

    Space Maintainers: A Short Term Solution May Prevent Long Term Problems

    Space maintainers are usually a simple and straightforward way to keep the space open for adult teeth to come in. In some cases, a simple space maintainer can prevent more expensive treatment, like braces, in the future. Who doesn’t love seeing a little child laugh, showing off a huge grin complete with spaces from missing baby teeth? Or how about the excitement each child has when they lose a tooth and realize they get a visit from the tooth fairy? But baby teeth do much more than let your little one chow down on dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets and mac and cheese. They serve as a placeholder for adult teeth, and if they come out too soon before the adult tooth is ready to come in, ....

  • Tooth Sensitivity Can Be a Real Pain

    Tooth Sensitivity Can Be a Real Pain

    Tooth sensitivity is a common problem, but you don’t have to suffer in silence. There are many treatments available that can have you enjoying your favorite foods again in no time. Tooth sensitivity can have many causes including:

    Enamel loss along the gum line
    – Clenching, grinding, and brushing too hard or with a hard-bristled toothbrush can cause the thin enamel along the gum line to wear away. Under the tooth enamel lies a layer of dentin. Dentin’s composition is much like our bones, hard, yet porous. It is made of tiny tubules which act like pathways to the pulp and nerve of our teeth.

I highly recommend dentiq to anyone looking for a dentist in Houston. Courtney has been cleaning my teeth as well as my husbands teeth for years now and I would never want to go to anyone else! I feel like the staff really takes the time to develop a rapport with their patients and that make them stand out from the rest. Also, the waiting area is SO chic. You would never think you were walking into a dentist office.

Jonathan Flores

Very professional, efficient, and caring workspace. Their team is impeccable and made me feel like a valued customer. Definitely recommend this dentistry to anyone out there who might have doubts about their current dentistry.

Yazmin Gutierrez

This place is awesome! They are so professional & understandable. They took their time to listen to my needs and explain to me what treatment I needed. The assistant Erika is so lovely! She made me feel like family. I definitely recommend this place, you can tell right away from the moment you walk in that they want to help!
