Summer is here, and with it comes abundant sunshine, lots of outdoor fun and plenty of yummy treats. While we’re all excited to soak up the sun, it's crucial not to overlook the extra attention our teeth need during these hot months. At Citracado Dental Group, we want to help you maintain a healthy smile throughout the entire summer, and beyond. Here are some tips to ensure your oral health stays in top shape while you celebrate the season. Stay Hydrated Hydration is not just important for general health but plays a significant role in oral health too. Drinking plenty of liquids is important for washing away leftover food bits and bacteria that can cause tooth damage and gum disease. Plus, it helps keep your mouth moist, which also helps fight off the acids that bacteria produce. Tip: Always take a refillable water bottle with you wherever you go. Make it a habit of taking frequent sips, particularly after meals and sweet treats. Water doesn't only keep you hydrated; it serves as a natural purifier for your teeth. Steer Clear of Sugary Beverages Summer often tempts us with frosty beverages laden with sugar – sodas, lemonades and sweet iced teas to name a few. While they may offer temporary hydration, these drinks are full of sugars that can be detrimental to your teeth. Sugar feeds the bacteria in your mouth, which then produces acid that can erode your enamel and cause cavities. Tip: Choose healthier options such as plain water, unsweetened iced tea or water infused with fruit slices for a splash of flavor without the extra sugar. If you do indulge, consider using a straw to reduce contact with your teeth and rinse your mouth thoroughly with water afterward. Maintain Proper Oral Hygiene Summertime adventures and getaways can sometimes throw a wrench in your daily habits, yet it's important not to let your oral care routine slide. Brushing your teeth morning and night, along with daily flossing, are the foundation of a healthy smile. Tip: Keep a handy travel-sized toothbrush, toothpaste and dental floss in your bag so you never have to skip your oral care routine. This simple act can play a big role in making it easy to maintain your oral health routine. Snack Smart With summer comes lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are not only great for your body but also your smile. Crunchy fruits and veggies like apples, carrots and celery work as natural cleaners for your teeth while stimulating your gums. Tip: Always have nutritious snacks within reach. Opt for a crunchy fruit or raw vegetables over sweets. Your teeth and gums will thank you. Protect Your Teeth During Summer Sports Summer is synonymous with outdoor games, activities and sports. Whether you’re playing in a soccer match, cycling around the park or enjoying a swim, protecting your teeth is paramount. Mouthguards can prevent dental injuries, especially during contact sports. We offer custom-fit mouthguards, which offer the best protection for avoiding athletic-related trauma to teeth. Tip: Purchase a high-quality mouthguard and wear it during any physical activities that might put your teeth at risk. This simple precaution could save you from painful dental mishaps that could be expensive to fix. Dazzle with Teeth Whitening Nothing says summer like a dazzling bright smile. If you’ve been considering teeth whitening , we have you covered with our summer offer of $159 (regularly for $330) for a take-home whitening system, which includes a scan for custom trays, trays and three whitening syringes. Tip: Give us a call to take advantage by August 31, 2024. Visit Your Dentist Regularly Even with the best at-home care, regular dental check-ups are essential to maintaining a healthy smile. Summer provides an excellent opportunity to book those routine exams to ensure that your smile stays flawless. Tip: Make an appointment with us at Citracado Dental Group . Our team is ready to offer personalized service to help keep your beautiful smile healthy throughout the year. At Citracado Dental Group, we're passionately committed to helping you achieve a healthy smile. By following these summer smile tips, you can enjoy all the season has to offer while keeping your teeth and gums at their best.
