My experience with Artistic Dental is always polite, caring, personable, and professional. I came here after having gone years without seeing a dentist and they took time to do a careful analysis of how to place me on a treatment plan to having a healthy mouth again, without suggesting removal of all my teeth that were compromised or beginning to fail. Their service approach is very gentle and informative as they move through the treatment keeping you aware of what is taking place. Their passion for patient care is tremendous and greatly appreciated. If you are looking for professionals who are great at their craft, look no further. I am grateful for the attention to detail and the customer service approach.
Black Friday isn’t just about shopping—it’s also National Flossing Day! As the holiday season kicks off, it’s a great time to commit to better oral hygiene. Flossing is a simple yet powerful way to protect your teeth and gums while indulging in seasonal sweets and treats.
Why Flossing Matters
Flossing targets the spaces between your teeth and along the gumline that brushing can’t fully clean. These areas tend to trap food particles and plaque, which, if not removed, can contribute to cavities, gum issues, and unpleasant breath.
A daily flossing habit removes this buildup, promoting healthier gums and a fresher smile.
Flossing Tips for the Holidays
- Choose Your Ideal Tool: Select a flossing option that works best for you, such as traditional floss, floss picks, or a water flosser.
- Make It Routine: Dedicate a consistent time each day, like after meals or before bed, to establish a steady flossing habit.
- Floss Gently: Guide the floss carefully between your teeth, curving it slightly around each one for a thorough clean without irritating your gums.
Combat the Effects of Holiday Treats
Holiday desserts like sticky candies and sugary pastries can leave residue on your teeth, increasing the risk of decay. Flossing helps clear away these remnants, keeping your smile healthy and your breath fresh for all your celebrations.
