How to Care For Your Teeth During The Holiday Season

Published on December 20th, 2019

With the holiday season comes plenty of dinners, parties, and social get-togethers. And with that comes plenty of drinks and food. If you haven’t had a teeth cleaning in Lincoln Park recently, the holiday season is a great time to do it. But that’s not the only way you can take care of your teeth this holiday season. In addition to maintaining your regular dental hygiene routine, you should be careful with your sugar intake. But we’ll expand on all that in the following paragraphs.

Here’s how to care for your teeth during the holiday season.

Don’t Skimp on Regular Dental Hygiene

From flossing and brushing daily to regularly visiting your dentist, your teeth cleaning in Lincoln Park routine becomes that much more important during the holiday season. After all, when the holiday season comes around, your immune system will be weakened because of the colder weather. This makes your teeth and gums more susceptible to infections.

By keeping your mouth, gums, and teeth clean, though, you can lend your immune system a helping hand. 

Be Careful About Your Sugar Intake

There’s no avoiding some sugary desserts and drinks during the holiday season, so we won’t tell you to cut out sugar altogether. However, it is important to avoid extended periods of snacking on foods with high sugar content. It’s actually better to eat whatever sugary treat it is you want to eat all at once rather than nibbling on it throughout the idea. 

Schedule a Teeth Cleaning in Lincoln Park 

If a teeth cleaning with your dentist isn’t already on your calendar, make sure it is. Regularly going to your dentist for cleanings is as important as brushing your teeth every day. Your dentist can make sure your teeth are protected and clean for the months to come.
