I’ve been a loyal patient at this dental practice since the ’80s, and my recent annual cleaning reaffirmed why. Cindy, the dental hygienist, provided exceptional care. Her gentle touch and genuine concern for my comfort made the cleaning a breeze. I’ve always received top-notch service here, and Cindy’s expertise is a shining example of their commitment to patient satisfaction. Highly recommend this practice for their outstanding staff and long-standing dedication to dental health.
As the temperatures rise, it’s hard not to resist drinks like soda, lemonade, or sweetened iced tea. However, those beverages have low nutritional value. Plus, when the sugar blends in with the bacteria in your mouth, it creates an acid that can erode your enamel. This increases your or your child’s risk for cavities. That’s what makes water the best summer beverage for your smile!
We wanted to share a helpful video by the Mayo Clinic that talks about the risk of drinking sugary drinks to your child’s health (and yours too!):
If drinking plain water sounds dull, consider jazzing it up with sliced citrus fruits or use ice cubes made with 100 percent fruit juice.
