As the air gets crisp, the leaves start to change, and pumpkin spice makes its grand return, fall is the perfect time to cozy up, reset routines, and make your health a priority including your smile. At Airport Dental Care, we want to remind you that a healthy mouth is a big part of staying well all year long.
1. Watch Out for Sugary Treats
Fall is filled with caramel apples, Halloween candy, and pumpkin-flavored sweets. While these treats are fun in moderation, sugar feeds cavity-causing bacteria. Be sure to brush and floss after indulging to keep your teeth strong.
2. Protect Your Smile from Fall Sports
Football, soccer, and other fall activities are in full swing. If you or your kids play contact sports, a custom mouthguard can help protect against dental injuries.
3. Schedule Your End of Year Appointment
Did you know many dental insurance benefits expire at the end of the year? Fall is a great time to schedule your cleaning, exam, or any treatment you’ve been putting off before your benefits reset.
