Valentine’s Day is a time to celebrate love and being with your loved ones, but it’s also important to remember your oral health! A healthy and beautiful smile can make a big difference on this special day. It is important to practice good oral hygiene such as brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and using mouthwash to kill bacteria and freshen your breath.
You should also be mindful of what you eat and drink, as sweets can promote tooth decay and erosion, and acidic food and drinks can erode enamel. Don’t forget about your gums, too, as they are the foundation of a healthy smile. If you notice any redness, swelling or bleeding, be sure to book a visit with us.
Finally, schedule a dental check-up to detect and prevent oral health issues and maintain healthy teeth and gums. Following these dental health recommendations can help you enjoy Valentine’s Day and maintain a healthy smile. We hope you have a wonderful holiday however you choose to celebrate!
