Summer is here, and it's the perfect time for kids to enjoy outdoor activities and delicious treats. To help ensure your children have a fun and healthy summer, follow these three tips from your trusted dentist:
1. Maintain a Routine
Keep up with regular brushing and flossing even during the summer break. Set a fun timer or play a favorite song to make brushing time enjoyable. Remember, brushing twice a day for two minutes and flossing once a day is key to maintaining those bright smiles!
2. Choose Healthy Snacks
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy delicious and nutritious snacks. Opt for fresh fruits, veggies, and yogurt instead of sugary treats. Crunchy snacks like apples and carrots can also help clean teeth naturally while satisfying hunger.
3. Stay Hydrated
Encourage kids to drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially when they're playing outside. Water not only keeps them hydrated but also helps rinse away food particles and reduces the risk of cavities.
Enjoy a fun-filled, healthy summer! 🌞😁
