Did you know that October is National Dental Hygiene Month? For us, this is a very exciting set of weeks, during which we encourage patients to review the facts they know about their own approach to oral hygiene at home. Do you know if you’re doing it the right way? Is this something you think about or do you try to just ignore the need for hygiene? Could you be doing more? The more you learn, the better equipped you’ll become for maintaining a vibrant, healthy grin. Let’s consider some simple steps you can take.
Talk About It
If you pretend dental hygiene doesn’t exist, you might not do your best when it comes to protecting your oral health. As a result, starting a conversation about smile care with your friends, your family, or even our practice is a good way to get in the habit of thinking about your smile and doing all that you can to maintain it.
Ask Us About It
While talking over brushing, flossing, and more with your friends can be fun and intriguing (not every patient relies on the exact same approach), asking us about it is your direct line toward factual responses. Want to know more about the best way to approach dental hygiene and all its parts? Bring us your inquiries!
Practice It
Of course, last but certainly not least, a wonderful way to celebrate National Dental Hygiene Month is simple: Practice your hygiene! Brush your teeth (do it twice a day) and floss your teeth (do it once a day). You might also want to keep travel hygiene items and sugarless gum around when you need to clean your smile during not-so-convenient moments.
