It’s December. The lights are up. The eggnog is flowing. You're trying to remember which of your cousins is gluten-free this year. But amidst all the gift wrapping and last-minute shopping, let’s ask the important question:
When was the last time you did something nice for your teeth?
You’ve bought gifts for the dog, your barista, your mail carrier, and your boss who you’re 90% sure thinks your name is “Josh.” But what about the one thing that’s been with you through every awkward family dinner and candy cane overload?
Your smile.
This holiday season, forget the scented candles. It’s time to give yourself something useful—a smile makeover with crowns and fillings at Westford Family Dental in Everett. Because nothing says “holiday cheer” like teeth that aren’t falling apart.
Fillings are like the duct tape of dentistry.
They plug the hole. They cover the damage. And yes, they hold everything together just long enough to keep you eating caramel popcorn through New Year’s.
But don’t confuse that with being optional. Cavities don’t go on vacation. They don’t say, “You know what? Let’s give this guy a break until January.”
No. Cavities are like that one cousin who shows up to Christmas dinner uninvited and then eats all the deviled eggs. They take over.
And if you’ve been feeling a little zing! when drinking something cold, or you suddenly have a weird new groove in your molar that wasn’t there last month?
It’s time for a filling.
You’ve got fillings. You’ve got minor chips. You’ve got a tooth that’s been “just fine” for years—until it wasn’t.
That’s where crowns come in.
Think of crowns like the helmet your tooth didn’t know it needed.
🦷 Broken tooth? Crown.
🦷 Huge filling that’s barely hanging on? Crown.
🦷 Tooth that had a root canal and now feels like it’s made of sadness? Crown.
Crowns are the royalty of restorative dentistry—strong, beautiful, and custom-made to match your real teeth so well that even you forget which one’s not the original.
And let’s be honest—if you’re going to be grinning through family photos, work parties, and your neighbor's awkward holiday karaoke night, you might as well have a smile that looks like it belongs in a toothpaste ad.
You’d think the end of the year would be a terrible time to handle dental work, right? But actually, it’s perfect.
Here’s why:
🎄 Insurance reset is coming – Use your benefits before they disappear like your willpower around peppermint bark.
🎄 You’ve got time off work – Take advantage of those lazy holiday mornings and schedule that appointment.
🎄 You’re going to see everyone – This is the time of year you’re the most visible—let’s make sure your smile is too.
🎄 Year-end health goals – “Be healthier next year” starts now. Let’s check “fix my teeth” off the list before January 1st.
And best of all? Crowns and fillings are fast.
This isn’t a six-month braces situation. You come in, we fix the problem, and you walk out feeling like a gift to the world. (Which, by the way, you are.)
We’re not here to lecture you. We’re not going to say, “Well, if you had flossed more…” because we already know. We’re human too. We’ve eaten leftover pie for breakfast.
Here’s how we handle your dental crown or filling situation:
Consultation – You come in, we take a look, and we talk like actual people. No judgment.
Diagnosis & Options – We explain what’s going on, and give you real solutions. (No pressure, no confusing jargon.)
Treatment Day – We fix it. Quickly. Comfortably. And with high-tech tools that don’t sound like they came from a mad scientist’s lab.
You walk out smiling – Literally. And chewing better than you have in months.
Gone are the days of big silver fillings and crowns that scream “I HAD WORK DONE.”
At Westford Family Dental in Everett, we use tooth-colored materials, designed to blend so well, even your dentist friends won’t be able to tell.
✅ No metal glint when you laugh
✅ No “off-white” mismatches
✅ Just strong, functional, natural-looking restorations that let you bite into peanut brittle with confidence (well...maybe take it slow on the brittle).
Look, the holidays are stressful. You’ve got to shop, cook, travel, host, pretend to like fruitcake, and survive endless small talk with people who still call you “kiddo.”
The least you can do for yourself is make sure your mouth doesn’t betray you mid-toast with a cracked tooth or sudden “zing” of regret.

You could wait until January.
Push it to the next resolution list.
Tell yourself “next year, I’ll handle it.”
But here’s the thing:
If you’ve got a broken tooth or a cavity, it’s not going anywhere. It’s not going to gently fade away. It’s going to get worse… and we both know it.
So gift yourself something actually useful this year.
A healthy, confident, holiday-ready smile.
Trust us—your mouth (and your mirror) will thank you.
