Summer Is A Good Time For Dental Care

Posted June 15, 2017

Is there dental care you’ve been meaning to take care of for your son or daughter’s smile but you haven’t gotten around to it yet? Perhaps you haven’t missed the mark just yet but you know you really need to get your little one’s next visit scheduled. Or, maybe we diagnosed your child with a cavity and you’ve got to schedule a dental filling very soon. Whatever the case, we encourage you to take our advice into consideration for this summer for healthy smiles all around!

Take Care Of Problems

When your child has a cavity, a tooth is damaged in some other way, or you’ve got other restorative treatments you’ve been meaning to schedule (but you and your child have been busy), now is certainly the time! When your child is out of school for the duration of the summer, whether you’ve got a little one or a teen, this is a wonderful time to take care of all that smile-related dental care stuff that becomes difficult to schedule throughout the school year.

Keep Preventive Visits Going

Whether you’ve got last minute fillings and other treatments to schedule or not, what you still need to remain on top of is checkups and cleanings. If the six-month mark since your child’s last preventive care visit happens over the summer, give us a call to make sure you’ve got a date and time scheduled soon. That way, you’re not behind once school starts back up.

Keep Up With Home Care

Of course, professional dental care is often easier to take care of during the summer. However, that doesn’t mean you should forget about home care, too. All of that brushing, flossing, thoughtful eating, and more needs to keep going according to the usual approach even when you’re feeling footloose and fancy free during summer months!
