So your dentist told you to brush, floss and rinse- what’s next? While good oral hygiene and routine checkups are an absolute must for healthy teeth, this article is for patient superstars looking to the next steps to rockin’ dental and, surprisingly, bone health.
There are three key nutrients to support dental and bone health, ready?
Here we go!
We’d like to suggest that you add one more person to your holiday shopping list… You! Now is the best time of year to treat yourself to that straight smile you’ve always wanted. Not only because we are in the midst of the holiday season, but also because Advanced Dental Care is offering an Invisalign special. During the month of November, you’ll receive $1000 off your Invisalign treatment. So, if you are looking for Invisalign in Costa Mesa, look no further than Advanced Dental Care.
Most think of New Year’s Day or Spring as the time for new beginnings, but what better time to start than now. November marks the turn into the winter season and while most of us are usually wrapped up in holiday gatherings and gifts for others, we forget about one very important person.. YOU! We have to take care of ourselves to be able to take care of others the best we can. This starts with total mind and body health, and especially your smile!

Two of the most common conditions in dentistry include Periodontal Disease and Crooked Teeth. Periodontal Disease is an active infection in the gums that must be treated by a professional. A common misconception is that a patient can brush or floss a little extra, but toothbrushes and floss can not reach the bacteria that have now burrowed pockets around our teeth. When left untreated, periodontal disease can lead to a number of other conditions including tooth loss. By using traditional procedures such as Scaling and Root Planing combined with our advanced technology diode lasers and medicinal irrigation we can rid you of the bacteria that is causing the infection!

If you are suffering from tooth loss, you are not alone. In fact, it is estimated that 69 percent of Americans over the age of 35 are missing at least one tooth. In addition, as many as one in four Americans over the age of 74 have lost all of their teeth. Tooth loss can occur from injury, disease, or poor oral care. No matter what the cause, Dr. Jeremy Jorgenson and the Advanced Dental Care staff are here to help you restore your smile with dental implants. With a 95 percent success rate and extensive list of benefits, we are proud to offer dental implants in Costa Mesa and Orange County.

Throughout the year, Advanced Dental Care takes pride in supporting and bringing awareness to local organizations doing AMAZING things in our communities. We learned about Project Independence through our fellow Costa Mesa Chamber of Commerce friend and Project Independence’s Director of Development, Todd Eckert! Todd became a patient of Dr. Jeremy Jorgenson’s and over time we got the pleasure of learning more about him and his organization.
Project Independence (PI) is a nonprofit organization founded right here in Orange County, CA in 1977! The organization is based just down the road from us in Costa Mesa. Project Indepedence focuses on helping people with developmental disabilities live independent and productive lives by securing jobs and housing for the clients. The Core Programs include:
Do you experience an occasional zing throughout the day? Sensitivity to hot and cold? Or constant dull, achy pain? These are all signs you are suffering from tooth sensitivity. Tooth sensitivity can be very unpleasant and also be a sign of a more serious dental condition. If you’re experiencing tooth pain, Orange County Dentist Dr. Jeremy Jorgenson can help!
Tooth Sensitivity causing Dental Pain
Tooth sensitivity can come in many forms and from many causes. You can simply be sipping in air, taking a bit of your lunch, or trying to concentrate at work and you notice that something doesn’t feel right. Tooth sensitivity, also called dentin hypersensitivity, can occur when the outer layers of the tooth, the enamel and cementum, become thin and expose the dentin layer underneath. When dentin is exposed, the tooth root and nerve are closer to the surface and more likely to become irritated.

For all of us at Advanced Dental Care, being leaders in our community is really important to us. We are always looking for ways to be involved in Costa Mesa and our neighboring Orange County communities. A few years ago we saw a school supply drive on Instagram from a local nonprofit called Chava’s Angels At Heart Foundation (CAAHF). We immediately reached out to the organization and were contacted by the founder of Chava’s Angels, Nadia Flores.
CAAHF‘s mission is to provide quality services to at-risk youths, at-risk young adults, and low-income families. CAAHF is committed to education, exposing, and ensuring client success. One important program that CAAHF puts on each August is a School Supply Drive for Santa Ana students. According to CAAHF, the Santa Ana Unified School District has approximately 56,000 students of which 91% qualify for free or reduced meals.
For the last two years, Advanced Dental Care has been a proud supporter of Chava’s Angels. We are again hosting our in-office School Supply Drive and striving to outdo the number of school supply donations we received last year (a whole carload full!!).
This year we’ve already filled once box in our lobby and have had generous donations mailed to us from all over the country! Wow! We are always amazed at the generosity of our patients, family, and friends!

Fluoride is present in most of the foods we eat, and tap water in the US has been treated with the mineral (a process known as fluoridation) due to its benefits for oral health. Most people know that fluoride has been linked to healthy teeth, but do you know why fluoride is necessary? Dr. Jorgenson, your Costa Mesa dentist, explains the function of the mineral and your smile’s need for it.
Straightening your teeth with Invisalign in Costa Mesa has never been more affordable.
