Summer dental care tips 🌞 Summer is full of fun, sun, and delicious treats, but it can also challenge your dental health. Our team is here with simple tips to help you maintain a bright, healthy smile no matter how busy the season gets.
🦷 Replace your toothbrush – If it is over 3 months old, it’s time for a fresh one.
💧 Stay hydrated – Hot weather can cause dry mouth, so drink plenty of water throughout the day.
🦷 Stick to your routine – Brush twice a day and floss daily, even if summer schedules get busy.
🍎 Choose tooth-friendly snacks – Fresh fruit, crunchy vegetables, and cheese help neutralise acids and keep teeth strong.
🥤 Rinse after sugary drinks – Soft drinks, juice, and sports drinks can be harsh on teeth.
🏐 Wear a mouthguard during sports – Summer is full of outdoor fun, so protect your teeth during active play.
