National Children's Dental Health Month
/February is National Children’s Dental Health month! Smiles for Kids Pediatric Dentistry is so excited to promote this amazing cause and spread the word for healthy smiles!
The American Dental Association (ADA) encourages parents and kids to choose tap water, when possible, to quench their thirst and avoid drinks with added sugar like soda and sweetened juices. These sugary drinks contribute to dental decay, diabetes, and obesity (just to name a few). It’s also important to maintain good oral health by brushing, flossing and eating healthy. Dr. Lindhorst and Dr. Jadav invite you to help spread the message!
Here’s a recap:
1. Choose tap water for a sparkling smile!
2. Avoid drinks with added sugar like soda and juice drinks!
3. Protect your smile with a toothbrush, fluoride toothpaste and floss.
4. Keep smiles sparkling: limit sugary treats, eat healthy and brush two minutes twice a day!
We can’t wait to see your beautiful smiles soon!
