Can you believe it’s already June? Today, Dr. Pamela Clark, Dr. Suha Reddy and our team at Pearland Pediatric Dentistry thought we’d tell you June is National Smile Month, and a good time to remind all our patients to practice good oral hygiene between your visits to our friendly office!
That means you too, parents! After all, there’s more and more evidence that suggests folks with gum disease are more at risk for serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and strokes.
Below are a few simple steps you can take to improve your oral health so that you may celebrate National Smile Month for many, many years to come:
* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth.
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks
* Visit us regularly (every 6 months or as recommended by Drs. Clark or Reddy)!
If you have questions about any of these tips, we encourage you to give us a call, ask Dr. Clark or our team during your next visit or ask us on Facebook!
