Love is in the Air
It's February already and love is in the air. Valentine's Day is coming up fast! No, we're not going to tell you not to give your love those chocolates. We indulge just like everybody else. Milk chocolate is smooth and delicious but if you can, stick with the dark chocolate as it is healthyish. Whichever you choose, make sure to brush those teeth after eating them. Not near a toothbrush? No problem! Just swish your mouth with water.
Now is also a great time to ask us about tooth whitening. We have both in-office and take home options to fit whatever your time and budget may allow. Also ask us about the Oral-B io electric toothbrush. Studies have shown that electric toothbrushes remove more biofilm than manual brushing.
Speaking of biofilm, are you or any of your loved ones taking immunosuppressant or biologic medications? These are used to treat autoimmune diseases and keep transplant patients from rejecting their organ. If so, it is extremely important to keep biofilm and bacteria out of your mouth, as these medications make you much more prone to infections. We have just the thing to help combat this: a professional cleaning and the take-home rinse OraCare. This is the same rinse that we use in the office as a prerinse before your exam or procedure. We always carry OraCare so stop in and get yours today.
