I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how thankful we are to be a part of each of your lives. I just saw a patient on Monday that I remember seeing as a 2 year old who is now entering college. How did she get so old, when I didn't?! So many of my littlest patients have grown and now have jobs or a spouse and some even have kids of their own! I don't take any moment for granted with my own

Well, it's almost Halloween, so that means it's almost time for our Annual Tooth Fairy Halloween Candy Swap. As always, the day after Halloween, the Tooth Fairy will pay kids 10 and under $2 per pound of Halloween candy that they are willing to part with. The Tooth Fairy is always happy to invest in tooth futures, so she asks Drs. Powell and Tiller to collect for her during the day because she

If you have been a patient of ours for years, you know what to do when you see us pick up the gauze. You stick out your tongue, because we are about to check it for oral cancer. I laugh that I don't even have to say it now, you see the guaze and out goes the tongue. Every 6 months, we check your mouth and tongue for any suspicious lesions. As with all cancers, early detection results in the

Like many of you, I'm sending my kids back to school next week. As I was shopping for school snacks, I thought it would be a good to give you a dentist's point of view on school snacks and lunches.I love for my kids to have healthy snacks like fruit, veggies, nuts, cheese or yogurt when they are home, but when school starts that can be less than practical (and definitely not cool). Some snacks

It's true that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...even for teeth. Therefore our goal is to not only beautifully restore your smile when needed, but to work with you to find the underlying cause, so that we can prevent the need for future treatment. If you have short, worn, or fractured teeth, you may need a crown or veneers to restore your smile, but just as importantly, you may

Okay, when you think of teeth, green is not a color that pops into mind! Nor does dentistry seem like an area that can be particularly environmentally conscious. But here at Powell and Tiller Dental Care, keeping up with the latest in technology is helping our planet as well as our patients. Digital X-rays not only provide excellent diagnostic value, they are also quite environmentally friendly.

Monday, November 2, 2009, is the date of our Annual Halloween Candy Swap.On the first working day after Halloween each year, kids 10 and under can bring in their candy to our office and trade it for cash! We will pay them $2 per pound of Halloween candy that they are willing to part with. We also give $5 per pound of candy received to the Capital Area Food Bank so that they can buy and deliver

Seeing no hands up, let us tell you about the latest technological advancement we've added: Digital Impressions. No goop, no gagging, no dripping, or drooling, just a few clicks of the camera! The iTero scanner takes 3D images and gives us all the information we need to fabricate your crowns, bridges, onlays, or veneers.It only takes a minute or two to take all of the images. It is more

The free wireless internet we offer for our patients in our reception area is not the "wireless" most enjoyed by our patients. What is? Wireless braces! Many of our patients are adult professionals who would like to have straight teeth or to close gaps between their teeth, but do not want to wear unsightly metal brackets, bands and wires. Invisalign clear braces are a great way to get the smile

I was just talking to one of my patients who has been coming to our office for over twelve years, and she asked if we were still accepting new patients. She mentioned that we seemed to have such a successful practice that she thought we might not be open for additional patients. I told her that YES, we are always open to new patients. We are so successful precisely because we get our patients
