The holidays are just a few days away, and we want to make sure you can attend your family gatherings and celebrations with bright and beautiful smiles! Fortunately, there is still time to see our team. In today’s blog, your Shrewsbury, MA, dentist talks about boosting your smile before the holidays begin!
Scheduling Your Checkup and Cleaning
When was the last time you saw our team for a dental exam and a professional cleaning? We recommend one every six months, so if it has been more the six months for you or your family, then schedule one now to undergo a checkup and cleaning before the year ends! Our team will examine your smile and if we discover issues that need attention, we can plan treatment to keep your smile intact and comfortable. We can also clean your teeth to remove all plaque and tartar before your risk of cavities and gum disease increase. Our team can help you enjoy the holiday and your New Years celebrations with a beautiful and healthy smile, and you can use your 2025 dental benefits before they expire!
Using Your Dental Benefits
If you have dental insurance then you have benefits you can use each year, but that will expire at midnight on December 31st unless you put them to good use. Likewise, if you have a health savings account and have funds left, these could also expire at the end of the ear. But our team can help you understand what you have available to use and give an estimate on what portions of your treatment this may cover, so you can plan for treatment and greet 2026 with a smile that shines!
Improving Your Oral Health
We can also discuss ways to help care for your smile at home even during the holiday season, when you are inundated with foods and drinks high in sugar and starch, which could lead to a high risk of cavities and gum disease. Be sure you enjoy options high in these ingredients in moderation, and balance your plate with water and fresh veggies and fruits. Make time to brush and floss daily too! If you have any questions about how to enjoy better overall oral health in the holiday season, or about seeing us before the year comes to a close, then reach out to our office today to get started. You deserve a healthy smile, in fact every member of your family does, and we want to help them all!
