This Thanksgiving – Give Thanks for Healthy Teeth
Fall is upon us and Thanksgiving is just right around the corner. As you gather with friends and family for your magnificent feast, it’s important to remember oral health.
Proper nutrition is essential to maintaining good oral health. Many times, improving your diet can help prevent tooth decay and gun disease.
You can still have a delicious Thanksgiving dinner by including different foods from these five major food groups.
Milk – Great in mashed potatoes
Meat – Turkey or ham
Grains – Stuffing and warm bread drizzled with butter
Vegetables – Yummy yams and broccoli casserole
Fruits – Cranberry sauce and delicious fruit salad
So you see, you can have many of your favorite foods that are also nutritious and play a major role in optimum dental health.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving and don’t forget to brush and floss!!
Reminder: Don’t Lose your Insurance Benefits!
Time is Running out!
The year is quickly coming to a close and most PPO dental insurance plans have an annual maximum dollar amount and if YOU DON’T USE IT, YOU LOSE IT! Many plans also allow 2 exams and 2 cleanings per year – why waste them? As a reminder if you have dental treatment you have put on hold, now may be a good time to schedule an appointment to maximize your insurance benefits and use any remaining flex account dollars you may have. Our Holiday Season will soon be upon us and it does book quickly, so call us today to schedule your appointment.
If your child has not been in to see a dentist this year, please call to schedule and appointment today.
