At Scott Orthodontic Associates, we can't believe it's already June! As it turns out, today is a great day for Dr. Scott and team to remind our patients that June is National Smile Month, which means it's not a bad time to get serious about practicing good oral hygiene between your visits to our office.
Here are a few simple steps you can take to improve your oral health so that you may celebrate National Smile Month for many, many years:
* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. Here's a helpful video showing you how to brush with your braces on.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth.
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks during your orthodontic treatment.
* Visit your dentist regularly (usually every six months apart) in addition to visiting Dr. Scott.
We hope these tips help! We hope you have yourself a great rest of the week!
