Floss Daily To Fight Gum Disease (video)

Home > Blog > Floss Daily To Fight Gum Disease (video)

At Blankenship Family Dentistry, our goal is for everyone to have healthiest smiles that they can. Preventive care is the best approach, and flossing daily is one of the best things you can do. As a reminder of what to do, we are sharing a short video by the American Dental Association.

We can treat gum disease at our Stone Mountain, GA, or we can when things return to normal. However, flossing and brushing daily can help you avoid a periodontal infection.

For now, keep up your oral hygiene habits. Stay safe, and remember that you can call 770-766-8995 for help with emergency dental care.

I’ve been coming to Blankenship Family Dentistry for over 25 years. They’re great and I love the camaraderie that they all share. It makes for a comfortable atmosphere while you’re having your cleaning or other dental work.

Blankenship Family Dentistry is truly just that; my entire family visits Dr. Blankenship for our dental needs and maintenance. Brenda is a joy! Each member of my family requests her when we visit. She cleans thoroughly, and there is not a piece of plaque left when she is finished.

Brenda is also extremely friendly and receptive to the needs/wants of patients. She helps in setting achievable dental goals; I often find myself excited to see whether or not I’ve met the 6 month dental goal because Brenda is just so encouraging.

Beyond grateful for Dr Blankenship! He is so patient, understanding, and caring despite my being an atypical patient. He is compassionate, accommodating, unruffled, and gentle despite the challenges i bring. I tried other dentists prior to finding Dr Blankenship and there is no comparison! They were either unwilling or a nervous wreck when asked to work with my unique situation. I can’t thank Dr Blankenship enough!

Best Dentist ever!!! I have been going to Dr. Blankenship for 30 plus years so did my children. I owe my beautiful smile to him.

As always the staff is pleasant and professional. I have been a patient for more than 30 years, and the ambiance has remained the same, pleasant, professional and personable. Brenda is such a joy, she brightens my day.

2nd visit here and i’m still surprised at how amazing the staff here is! Everyone is so wonderful. The hygienists and Dr. Jeffrey Blankenship really do take care of your teeth well! 10/10 recommend this place 🙂

Robert M

It was a great visit! Because I was so early, the dentist and I opened the office. Even though he had a busy Friday schedule ahead, he took time to do a great job for me. I plan to visit this office always, even though it’s distant from my home.

Mattie W

Awesome experience! Brenda, my hygienist did a great job cleaning my teeth. She’s always very thorough and very patient. I would definitely recommend this dental practice to everyone. Dr. Blankenship is very patient and kind. He’s the best!

The entire team is kind and professional. Dr. Blankenship and his team are knowledgeable and treat each person with respect and genuine care. This has been the best dental experience my family has had to date. I would definitely recommend them to anyone I care about.

I love Dr. Blankenship’s practice. We’ve been going to their practice for 13 years and never have we had a negative experience. The receptionists are friendly and always smiling. The hygienist encourages me to floss and is very thorough in cleaning my teeth. Dr. Blankenship is the friendliest doctor I’ve ever met! He genuinely cares about all his patients. Great practice!
