Summer is Something to Smile About
Summer is in full swing, but that doesn’t mean oral hygiene should take a vacation! Make sure your kids -- and you -- keep your teeth healthy this summer and throughout the year. Smile More dentist has some tips to make sure you and your children keep smiling more:
- Avoid sugary foods regardless of the season: Kids’ daily routines can be disrupted when summer rolls around. The change in routine can also mean a change in their eating habits, which means unhealthy snacks and sugary foods -- among the root causes of cavities -- can creep into their summer diet.
- Eat healthy snacks: Make sure you stock the pantry and fridge with healthy snacks such as nuts, oatmeal and fresh fruits and vegetables.
- Hydration: Staying hydrated in summer heat is very important, so drinking plenty of water is critical. But if you do indulge in a sugary drink, make sure you ingest some water soon after. It helps wash away sugar in your mouth, and helps prevent cavities from forming.
- Keep Brushing: Just because the schedule is different in the summer doesn’t mean there isn’t time to to brush teeth twice a day.
- Time for a new toothbrush? Toothbrushes should be replaced every three months, so the beginning of the month is a great time to mark a 12-week cycle. Before they know it, it’ll be back to school...
