There’s nothing like a toothache to throw a major wrench into your plans, to send you into overdrive in trying to soothe your child, and to leave you wondering what to do next.

When you think about winter break, you probably have one thing on your mind: You’ve got a list that’s very, very long with all of the things you want to do, that you should do, and that you need to get done when your kids are out of school. If one of those items includes spending a little time on your oral health with your kiddos, then you’re in luck! We can help you make this a very easy and successful venture, so everyone goes back to school and work with rejuvenated habits and smiles!
When you’ve got kids, it often seems like your wallet has sprung a leak. Every time you turn around, you seem to be spending more and more money on essentials. As a result, you may start wondering if all of the “necessary” things you’re investing in are actually required or are just a luxury. When it comes to your child’s dental care, we encourage you to remember that investing in it is actually your most cost effective way of managing your little one’s oral health. Let’s get a bit more specific!
The holidays are a cozy, snuggly, carefree, fun time when you’ve got kids at home! However, they’re also a time when you find yourself feeling a little frazzled when it comes to monitoring everyone’s sugar intake. How to make this time of year exciting without overloading everyone, kids and adults included, with the usual confectionary go-tos? Actually, protecting smile health while you have fun is fairly easy!
It’s quite a feat to to make plans for holiday travel, to gather up the kids, to get in the car, on a plane, or otherwise, and to head toward a destination! The last thing you want is to show up wherever it is you’re headed only to realize you left behind dental hygiene items that your kids need (or that you need) for your oral health. So, to make life easy, we very strongly encourage you to write a packing list (or two or three). Need some tips? We’ve got them.
