Diet Tips for a Pretty Smile

1) Yogurt - the lactic acid may ward off periodontal disease, but skip the sugary varieties

2) Sugar-free gum and hard candies - these promote saliva flow and also help fight cavities.  Xylitol-sweetned ones work best

3) Raw or firm veggies - these help "scrub" teeth.  The ones with vitamin C (broccoli and all color peppers) may also protect against gum disease.

Time for School Dental Exams

Summer is upon us. Time to get the local school district's requirement of a dental exam for students in grades kindergarten, second and sixth completed. If you don't have the school form for the exam, we do. 


It's also a good time to eat more carrots, cauliflower, celery and apples as they promote the flow of saliva, which prevents stains. Strawberries and oranges are also tooth polishers.
