PSA: Winter can dry out more than your skin ❄️🫣

Dry mouth means less saliva, and saliva is your teeth’s natural defense. Stay hydrated, sleep with a humidifier, avoid alcohol, and chew sugar-free gum to keep your smile cavity-protected.

👉 Save this tip for the cold months!

Happy Fluoride Day!

Fluoride often doesn’t get the spotlight, but it quietly does a lot of heavy lifting for your smile — helping repair enamel and protect against decay. 💪🏼🦷

Fluoride can feel confusing — but it doesn’t have to be. Learn more about how it works and why it matters in this helpful article from our Smile Guide 👇

Which one do you never skip?

Healthy smiles are built on small habits—like knowing when to brush. 🪥⏱️

After meals, enamel softens briefly due to acids. Giving your teeth 30–60 minutes before brushing helps prevent unnecessary enamel wear over time.

💾 A small reminder that’s easy to forget—save for later.

Time flies… and teeth move. 😄

Shifting teeth are normal as we age and can change how your bite fits together. If your smile feels different, let’s talk. 🦷✨
