While spring cleaning typically involves cleaning up the cobwebs around the house after a long winter, the phrase has come to represent a variety of ways to reorganize different aspects of your life. So why not take this opportunity for spring renewal to invest in your family's dental health!
See below for some simple ways to get you started:
Toothbrush check - when was the last time you or other family members replaced their toothbrush? The ADA recommends that toothbrushes get replaced approximately every 3 months or sooner if the bristles become frayed.
Overhaul your diet - March is National Nutrition Month and the start of spring, what better time to make some changes to your diet! Making adjustments to the foods you eat and beverages you consume can help put you back on track to excellent oral health. Not sure what to add to your grocery list? See our recent blog for suggestions!
Brush and floss regularly - While we know you are already doing this, we want to be sure the whole household is brushing for two minutes, twice a day. Flossing is equally important but often neglected. So in honor of spring cleaning your dental routine - commit to flossing daily!
Schedule an appointment for a good spring teeth cleaning - regular exams and cleanings are important for all ages. They give the dentist a good idea of what your child’s habits are and thus the dentist can suggest changes needed to improve his or her oral health. Give us a call to schedule an appointment to make sure your child is on the right path to a lifelong healthy and happy smile!
