Flossing and Braces

Flossing is a must for patients with braces, we encouraging flossing at least once a day. There are plenty of ways to floss around your teeth and braces, but many people will find it difficult to get into all the nooks and crannies with the floss thread alone. For our patients we recommended a product called Platypus. The Platypus makes flossing with braces quick and easy, and is specifically designed for use with orthodontic appliances! Check out their website for more information, or ask us about the Platypus on your next visit!

This June, It's Time To Smile!

It’s June already! Where does the time go?

Dr. Schwartz and team are excited to tell you June marks National Smile Month, a great time to remind our patients to brush, floss, practice good nutrition at home (and over the summer) to avoid cavities and gum disease, among other dental health issues.

After all, there’s more and more evidence that suggests folks with gum disease are more at risk for serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and strokes.

Here are a few easy steps you can improve your oral health at home:

* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth and braces
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks during orthodontic treatment.
* Visit your general dentist regularly (usually every six months apart).

If you have questions about any of the tips here, we encourage you to give us a call! We hope you had a relaxing Memorial Day weekend!
