The holidays are coming! There will be gatherings for company celebrations, family dinners, Friendsgiving and beyond. Or maybe you have a wedding or formal event coming up. Whatever your social calendar looks like, there are several ways you can get ready to greet everyone with a stellar smile.
Brush up on your brushing.
We love giving you that deep and thorough cleaning that really makes your smile shine. But remember to put the work in at home because it’s equally as important. Brushing and flossing your teeth diligently and regularly is the first (and most important step) in maintaining a healthy mouth so you can flash that healthy smile. We’re in this together!
Hydrate wisely.
There are a variety of health benefits to drinking water throughout the day. For your mouth, better hydration means more saliva to wash away bacteria, food particles and even plaque. And a dry mouth can actually lead to bad breath. Keeping your body hydrated absolutely impacts your teeth and mouth overall. So, drink up!
Call in the Pros.
It’s typical to see your dentist every 6 months for a deep cleaning. Some patients may vary depending on their dental needs. We’ll expertly polish your teeth, floss, and give your teeth and gums a comprehensive check-up to make sure everything is as it should be. The regular cleanings are crucial to keeping your smile the best it can possibly be and maintaining good oral hygiene in general.
Whiten and Brighten.
Coffee, pasta sauces, medications – they can all put a damper on the brightness of your teeth. While over the counter whitening strips are great for removing surface stains, they can take weeks of use to work and can only get you so far. However, professional whitening options can work as quickly as one visit. They’re more powerful and effective for providing an intense and noticeably brighter smile.
As you plan your holiday outfits for all your upcoming fun events, don’t forget to dedicate some time to making sure your smile is ready for primetime. Call ClearWave Dental today to schedule your cleaning or to discuss your professional whitening options. We’ll make sure your smile dazzles!
