We’re here to remind you why it’s so important to keep up with daily oral health practices, and what you can do to improve your routine.
Oral health among adults age 65 and older has greatly improved over the past 50 years, but aging can create unique challenges when it comes to dental care. By understanding how some medications affect oral health, maintaining healthy habits and keeping up with regular preventive treatment, you can keep your teeth and mouth healthy for many years to come.
When you treat yourself to your favorite foods, you’re likely to splurge on something that isn’t very healthy for you. And, while brushing and flossing regularly are important for ensuring your teeth and gums are healthy and strong, too many unhealthy choices can damage your teeth over time. The good news: there are ways to trade high-sugar or starchy foods for healthier options, without sacrificing flavor. In the long run, your oral health will benefit from these substitutions.
It’s hard to believe that summer is coming to a close and it’s time to adjust to a back-to-school mindset. Instead of days spent at the pool, your child’s free time will soon be filled with after-school sports, music lessons and homework. It’s best to begin thinking about their oral health needs now before the hectic school year begins.
When packing your child’s school lunch, it can be tempting to buy a pre-packaged treat from the grocery store. While it’s easy to grab snacks on-the-go, they’re often not as healthy as you might think. Pre-packaged single-serving yogurt cups can be loaded with sugar.
