❄️ Winter Is Coming… Protect Your Smile! ❄️

Cold weather can do more than make you shiver — it can affect your teeth, too! Here are a few tips to keep your smile healthy this season:
✅ Stay Hydrated: Dry winter air can lead to dry mouth, which increases cavity risk.
✅ Watch Out for Sensitivity: Cold air and hot drinks can trigger tooth sensitivity. If this happens, let us know!
✅ Don’t Skip Your Checkup: The end of the year is the perfect time to use your dental benefits before they expire.
Bundle up, stay cozy, and keep those teeth strong all winter long! 🦷💙

💙 Pike Creek Dental Proudly Supports Richey Elementary! 💙

At Pike Creek Dental, we believe that strong communities start with supporting our local schools. Richey Elementary isn’t just a school — it’s the heart of so many families right here in our neighborhood, and we’re incredibly proud to play a small part in helping their students shine.

From pencils to book bags, and everything in between, the impact of community support is real. When we lift up our kids, we lift up the future — and watching these young minds learn, grow, and dream big is exactly why we love doing what we do. A healthy smile is just one piece of the puzzle… confidence, learning, and opportunity matter too!

To the staff, parents, and students at Richey Elementary: thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey. We see the work you’re doing, we appreciate your hearts, and we’re cheering loud for you — today and always. 💫 Keep shining, keep learning, and keep smiling, Tigers! 🐯🦷💙
