1. Over the Counter Teeth Whitening Products

   May 05 2023

   Teeth seem to be getting whiter and whiter. A beautiful bright smile is attractive. There are several at home teeth whitening products. We asked our dental professionals and patients. These are a few of their favorites.

   

   Brighten your smile with teeth whitening!

   Both the patients and the dental professionals stressed seeing your dentist first. Dental diseases such as swollen bleeding gums and decay need to be addressed before whitening teeth.

   The best option according to those we asked is custom whitening trays. They fit well and therefore the gel is neatly placed around the teeth. Some dental offices offer whitening for life. Once the initial trays are made and tubes of whitening gel purchased patients receive an additional tube of whitening at each dental hygiene visit. 

   Another favorite was Crest 3D Whitestrips. They are not custom-made but are convenient and easily accessible.

   Opalescence Go is offered at many dental practices as a complimentary gift for new patients after they have completed necessary treatment. Once again, it is not a custom fit but comes in different strengths and is designed to be used 10-15 days for maximum results. 

   

    

   Colgate Optic Toothpaste and Opalescence Whitening toothpaste come up as preferred whitening toothpastes.

   It is important to note that while these products can be effective, it is essential to consult with a dentist before starting any whitening treatment.

2. February is Children’s Dental Health Month!

   Feb 01 2023

   Dental health is an important topic for parents to consider when it comes to their children. Taking care of a child’s oral health can start even before they have their first tooth. It’s important to introduce healthy habits early on to ensure that children have strong, healthy teeth and gums and a lifetime of healthy smiles.

   

   First and foremost, it’s important to schedule regular dental visits for your child. These visits should start when the first tooth appears and continue throughout their life. During the visits, the dentist will be able to provide advice on oral care, assess the condition of the teeth and gums, and offer preventive treatments such as fluoride applications. Frankel Dentistry offers look and learn appointments to help your child acclimate to the dental office environment while also ensuring their oral health is on the right track.

   

   At home, parents should help their children develop good brushing habits. Ideally, children should brush their teeth twice a day for two minutes each time, using a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride-containing toothpaste. Parents should help children aged two and under brush their teeth, and should supervise brushing for children up to the age of six.

   In addition to brushing, children should also floss their teeth every day. Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from in between teeth, which helps prevent the buildup of cavities and gum disease. It’s important to teach children the proper way to floss, as incorrect technique can do more harm than good.

   Finally, it’s important to limit the amount of sugary snacks and drinks that children consume. Sugary foods and drinks can increase the risk of cavities, so it’s best to limit their intake. Replace sugary snacks with healthy alternatives such as fruits, vegetables, and plain yogurt.

   By following these tips, parents can help ensure that their children have healthy teeth and gums for life. Let’s summarize! Regular visits to the dentist, good brushing habits, flossing, and limiting sugary snacks and drinks are all important components of a good dental health routine.

3. Find a career you love!

   There is nothing like working in a field you love with people you love.

My dental team from assistant to doctor was knowledgeable and compassionate. I know I am in great hands when I am with Frankel.

4. Men’s Health Matters!

   Jun 20 2022

   June is Men’s Health Awareness Month and Frankel Dentistry is spreading awareness and encouraging healthy habits. Did you know over 350,000 men die every year from heart disease? And only 3 out 5 have regular physicals. Believe it or not, your oral health is connected to your health! This is why we always say a Healthy Mouth Promotes a Healthy Body! Oral health is often overlooked but did you know there are currently 3.6 billion individuals struggling with oral diseases? 

   

   Your mouth is typically a good indicator of your overall well-being. Individuals with periodontal disease have the same risk factors as those with heart disease. Diseases such as diabetes, stroke, heart disease, and Alzthemiers can all be connected to oral health. Frankel Dentistry wants to see you live a healthy, happy life with smiles to share for years to come. How can you make sure you’re practicing a healthy lifestyle?

   Here are some heart healthy habits to help encourage a healthy lifestyle!

   1. A healthy diet.

   Limit your fat and sodium consumption! Highly fat foods are known to increase your risk of heart disease or stroke. This is because fatty foods increase cholesterol which lead to high blood pressure, build up in the blood, clogged arteries, and more. 

   A heart healthy diet includes whole grains, fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and limit processed foods. 

   2. Exercise!

   30 minutes a few days a week is all you need! Cardio exercises such as walking, running, cycling, or exercise classes all help strengthen your heart. Find a form of exercise you love and will look forward to! 

   3. DENTAL CARE

   As you know a healthy mouth promotes a healthy body! Studies have shown bacteria in the mouth creates plaque which can move into the bloodstream and increase your risk for diabetes, stroke, and more. Remember to brush twice a day for at least two minutes, floss regularly, and schedule your recare appointments! 

   4. Quality rest.

   Quality sleep is essential to your health and well-being. Sleep allows your heart to rest as well as improve blood pressure and heart rate. We recommend a 7-8 hours of quality rest a night.

   

5. Rooster Hijacks Ride to Frankel Dentistry

   Dec 27 2021

   

   Being located only a mile South from the state line and beautiful Michigan farm lands, Frankel Dentistry is no stranger to farmers and their families. However, this chilly December afternoon, we had a visitor we’ve never seen before. 

   It was a calm day in the office just like any other. Our front desk receptionist welcomed patients as something odd caught her eye. “Maybe, I’m just seeing things” she thought to herself, when once again a red flash dashed across the glass office door. 

   A comedy ensued. The patient had no idea her rooster had hijacked a ride with her to Frankel Dentistry. Once alerted, an event mirroring the keystone cops of yesteryear began. The escapee rooster’s owner, Dr. Greiss, Madison, and Megan were zigzagging across the parking lot. The clever bird had the edge for longer than one might hope. Eventually cornered and corralled, the rooster was defeated but safe. The now seasoned dentist, hygienist, assistant, and patient returned to changing lives a smile at a time through dentistry. 

   

   Frankel Dentistry has offered the best dental experience for 75 years. It is easy to see why they have been awarded the Best of Toledo Dental by the readers of City Paper for 11 years. They are more than dental professionals. They are family, friends, and when needed farmers.

   First time there and I felt comfortable and I don’t like the dentist. Julie was great. And was gentle on my teeth. Will DEFINITELY be going back to let her work on my teeth.

   Randy G

   January 7, 2021

   I was very impressed with my initial exam and x-rays. The x-rays were processed immediately – only a few minutes. The professional conducting my exam put the photos on the tv screen in front of me and used a mouse pointer to highlight the areas of concern as she explained the issues (possible root infection , tartar build-up, filling inclusions..) Very thorough. I came out with a clear understanding of the issues and treatment plan.

9. Toledo Dentist Rave Reviews

   Jun 04 2019

   

   As always professional & comfortable! I need a bumper sticker that says, “I love my dentist!”

   PR

   I have been going to this office for about five years now and they always provide great care. They make sure you are comfortable and they also take your questions and concerns very seriously. I would highly recommend!

   KD

   I am a past patient visiting from out of state. I had an emergency situation and Tatyana was extremely helpful. She found an appointment for me the same day and made sure she called back to confirm. Dr. Smith was very personable and explained everything that was going on – and helped put my mind at ease.Fortunately, it was nothing but my confidence in the practice that they’re still there for me when I’m in town was completely reassured. Definitely highly recommend!

   ANON

   Kind and friendly as always! They seem to really care about you ! Gentle and thoughtful ! That’s me saying that, from a person that never liked going to the dentist . It always brought on so much anxiety till I found Dr Frankel and Karen !

   BA

   Great experience starting with the welcome phone message from Zach! We felt comfortable and valued by everyone we interacted with on your team! Thank you for your outstanding service. We look forward to our next visit.

   BW

   I can honestly say I am no longer afraid of the dentist. After many traumatic experiences at many different dental offices, I decided to try Dr. Frankel’s office because it seems to be the popular place to go. I had a filling fall out that was done by a different dentist and they got me in right away for an emergency appointment. All of the staff were so friendly, they made me feel completely comfortable and went at my pace. I went back for a cleaning and they were very thorough, and again very friendly. I went in today to have a filling replaced, this was the 6th time and third dentist to replace this filling. I was seen by Dr Smith who was so friendly, always smiling, and pulled up my xrays so he could show me what he was planning, as well as why I have been having so many problems with this tooth. He was very patient and took the time to answer all questions I had. He asked me regularly how I was doing, and told me what he was doing before doing it. I walked away feeling good about the work that I had done, and I even had some good laughs!

10. Toledo, Ohio Dentist Starts Off Year with Great Reviews

    It may be cold outside but the patients at Frankel Dentistry are feeling warm fuzzies.  Since 1946 Frankel Dentistry has served the Toledo, Ohio area through dentistry with an always better philosophy. It shows. They have received 24 patient reviews in 11 days!

    

     

    1/1/2019

    Since I have become a patient of Dr. Frankel (going on 7 years), I have had NO problems with my teeth! My previous dentist always seemed to find something “wrong”, and I needed an overlay, or a bridge, or SOMETHING! I am beyond satisfied with all the staff at this practice and I highly recommend becoming a patient here.

    Would just like to let you know how impressive your office is on cleanliness. From the waiting area to the dental chair all looks so nice. Brittney always does a great job cleaning my teeth but for some reason on this particular visit I happened to notice how professional everything looked. Keep up the good work – we appreciate it!!

    ANON

    1/8/2019

    From the minute I walked in the door I was greeted with a genuine happy smile. Brittney also called me back for my cleaning with a big smile. Check out staff very nice and friendly. So nice to go to a workplace where people smile. Also “love” the quick whitening Brittney did on my teeth. The minimal cost is worth the time I save doing it on my own and treatment does a better job than my home whitening.

    ANON

    1/8/2019

    The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. I was seen immediately when I called as a new patient with a problem tooth. I am so thankful I choose this practice. It is also very clean.

    1/9/2019

    I moved to the area from S.C and I needed to find a dentist and chose to go to Dr. Frankel. Upon arriving it was obvious there is team concept strategy within the office. Everyone was pleasant, upbeat and willing. They all made me feel as though they had been waiting specifically for me. Julia did my cleaning and she was very gentle, kind and thoughtful. Dr. Frankel was very nice and seemed genuinely concerned about my overall dental care. This was my first visit however I do believe I’ve found my dentist and that makes me smile.
