Kicking off the new year with a commitment to better oral health is a fantastic way to ensure your smile stays bright and healthy. To achieve this, a great oral health routine includes brushing your teeth regularly, limiting candy consumption, and visiting the dentist for check-ups. All of this will help limit any cavities you may get.
For those looking to improve their oral health habits, starting with simple steps can make a big difference. There are a few things we recommend getting you started. You’ll want to get an easy-to-use timer and an electric toothbrush. Many electric toothbrushes come with built-in timers. If you’re looking for one, we suggest the Oral-B electric toothbrush especially for children!
We also suggest that you keep up with your flossing routine. Traditional floss is recommended over floss picks or a Waterpik, as it effectively removes plaque and debris. Neglecting oral health can lead to gum disease and extensive cavities, which may result in tooth loss.
This month, we are offering a complementary initial exam for children under 24 months. It's a great opportunity to start your children on the path to good oral health from an early age.
