The greatest compliment you can give us? A referral. 🤍

There’s no better feeling than hearing, “My friend told me about you!” Knowing that you trust us enough to recommend our office to the people you love means the world to our team.

At Five Points Family Dental, we truly believe that quality dental care should be something the whole family can experience together all under one roof. From your little ones’ very first dental visits at 6 months old to our patients who are 105 years young, we’re proud to care for generations of families in our community.

And yes, we mean it when we say family dentistry! 👶🧒🧑‍🦱👩‍🦳

We take the same time, patience, and attention with our pediatric patients that we do with our adults. We want your children to grow up feeling comfortable, confident, and cared for at the dentist while giving parents the peace of mind that their family’s oral health is in good hands.

So if you’ve been looking for a dental home for your family, we’d love to meet you! And if you already call our office home, the best way you can support us is simply by sharing your experience with a friend, neighbor, coworker, or family member. 🫶

One family. One dental home. Care for every generation. 🤍

📲 Know someone who needs a dentist? Send them our way we’d be honored to care for them!

The airway is about more than simply breathing comfortably during the day. When the airway becomes restricted during sleep, it can contribute to sleep-disordered breathing and repeated drops in oxygen levels. Large population studies have found an association between sleep apnea and an increased risk of cognitive decline, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease.

This is why you may hear your hygienist or Dr. Nelms discussing airway health, sleep, breathing, and myofunctional therapy during your upcoming visits. Myofunctional therapy is one approach that can help improve the strength, coordination, and function of the muscles that support the airway.

Our goal is not to suggest that airway therapy prevents dementia, but rather to identify potential airway concerns earlier and work upstream to support healthy breathing, sleep quality, oxygenation, and overall health. That’s why we’re taking a closer look at airway function, not just teeth. 🦷 👃
