Jan
It’s the month of new resolutions and keeping your teeth healthy could be the easiest one to keep this year. You may already have a regular dentist and a daily routine, but you might be missing some key opportunities to improve your smile.
Start a Routine of Proper Daily Care
Brushing your teeth regularly is the best thing you can do for your mouth and it can affect more than just your smile. If you’re already an avid brusher, that’s great! Just in case, we’ve compiled a few tips to improve your daily routine.
Resolve to Get Regular Check-Ups
When life gets busy, it can be easy to put off a trip to the dentist. If you’re guilty of procrastinating, it’s time to change that habit. Aside from a good cleaning, regular trips to the dentist mean you’ll be screened for cavities and other diseases.
Try New Products
There are a lot of new dental care products on the market. Technological advancements have led to innovative products like whitening pens and smart toothbrushes. There are even options to help you gauge how effective your daily dental routine is and where improvements can be made. You may also want to change to some of the more natural toothpastes available to limit the amount of artificial ingredients on your teeth. It’s a good idea to check with your dental hygienist for the best options for you.
Explore Orthodontic Options
Orthodontic treatments are about more than cosmetics. Straight teeth are easier to care for and tend to resist plaque build-up better than crooked, crowded, or twisted teeth. Imagine how easy it would be to brush and floss if your teeth were perfectly straight! There are many options to suit any lifestyle, including Invisalign and an array of color options, making it easier and more fashionable than ever to straighten your teeth.
It’s a new year and a time for forming new habits. Making a conscious effort to commit to your oral health is an excellent step toward living a healthier life overall. It may also be a simpler (and cheaper) option than joining a new gym. If it’s time to make an appointment for a check-up or to explore your options, contact us today on 0751 856 900 / 0796 856 900!
