Don’t Forget About Less Obvious Dental Floss Details! 

You likely already know the obvious details associated with dental floss and your child’s smile care habits at home (yours, too, of course). When we’re talking about the twice-a-day preventive sessions you’re holding in your bathroom, you know without doubt that one of them needs to include flossing and that it’s something in which the whole family must participate! You know to be thorough and gentle, as well. However, our Dallas, TX team recognizes that there are some less obvious particulars you may have forgotten about that can make (or break) your experience. Make it a wonderful one by considering some questions, so in your home, happy, clean smiles abound!

Toothbrush Choices: Keeping Smiles Bright And Healthy! 

You brush your teeth and ensure that your children brush their teeth, in part, because our Dallas, TX team tells you that you should. You also do it because you know it’s for the protection of your family’s oral health. While you probably have most of the details pretty well figured out at this point, it’s not unusual for even a very dedicated individual to suddenly feel full of questions about any aspect of dental care. Perhaps you wake up one day to recognize you really don’t know much about the type of toothbrush you and your kiddos should be using. Fortunately, when you seek answers from us, you’ve come to the right place!

Smile Reminders: As The Holidays Draw Near 

You know that as the holiday season draws nearer and nearer, there are probably some things that we have to say about your child’s smile. If you really concentrate and put your mind to it, you’re guessing that there are some details you would be able to conjure up on your own in terms of additional failsafes you should put into place just to be sure you’re really ready for unexpected hazards. However, with that said, it would make things much easier if our Dallas, TX team gives you some reminders! No problem. We’re always more than happy to do all that we can to keep your little ones’ (and teens’) oral health safe and sound.
