When it comes to healthy teeth and gums, oral hygiene is imperative. Our dentist recommends having a dental check-up at least twice a year to maintain a healthy mouth and teeth. Based on your comprehensive oral evaluation, our dental hygienist will recommend personalized dental goals and Dr. Robin Asbury will further prescribe a treatment plan centered around your dental needs. Please do not hesitate to share any specific concerns and/or questions about preventative measures during your dental visits. Here at Metro Smiles, you will meet a professional dental team dedicated to providing the quality dental care you deserve. We are committed to educating our patients in practicing good oral hygiene, daily. Currently, we are gladly accepting new patients at our Greenwood Village location. Please be sure to call us during our regular business hours to reserve your dental appointment Mondays through Thursdays.
In most cases, periodontal gum disease can start below gum line, therefore our dental hygienists annually utilize digital radiographs to proactively catch and diagnose any related periodontal conditions in the early stages. Our detailed oral exams allow for the opportunity to take all necessary actions in disease prevention, oral health protection, and will be a financial benefit by saving your money on extensive treatment costs. Periapical, bitewing, and full-mouth digital radiographs provide your dentist with the pertinent information regarding oral conditions to further affirm their prescribed treatment plans and oral hygiene strategies. At Metro Smiles, we utilize digital radiographs to improve your oral health more proactively and effectively.

Many people who struggle with teeth grinding could benefit from a custom occlusal guard offered by the Denver general dentistry practice of Dr. Robin Asbury of Metro Smiles, PC. She and her team offer occlusal guards which are designed to meet the needs of each patient.
You may be wondering what is an occlusal guard. It is a plastic device which will cover your teeth to help protect them from grinding and clenching damage. When you visit Dr. Robin, she will explain more about what an occlusal guard is and how it can benefit you.
Do you grind your teeth? Damage from teeth grinding may cause: chipped enamel, flattened, grooved, worn-down teeth, loosened teeth, cracked teeth, periodontal gum problems, and damage to bridges, fillings and dental implants. Tooth grinding refers to rhythmically and repetitively rubbing your teeth together. If you don’t wear a mouth guard for teeth grinding, you will eventually cause your teeth to fail. Grinding can also affect your jaws and change the appearance of your teeth and face. To avoid this, ask Dr. Asbury to make you a mouth guard for teeth grinding.
Many people grind their teeth unconsciously during sleep, wearing a custom night guard is a good solution for this. A dull headache or sore jaw upon waking is a sign that you’ve been grinding your teeth. However, a custom night guard created just by Dr. Robin Asbury at Metro Smiles can make all the difference and be worn at any time you are most likely to grind your teeth.
Bruxism refers to constantly grinding, gnashing or clenching your teeth. Symptoms include flattened, chipped or loose teeth, pain or sensitivity, and signs of chewing the inside of your cheek. Without a bruxism guard, you may experience severe face and jaw pain, tension headaches, and damage to your teeth or crowns. If you want to avoid, permanent damage, get a bruxism guard. Consequences of grinding include a sore tired jaw, sensitive teeth, loose teeth, earaches, dull headaches, neck aches, and clicking sounds when you open your mouth.
