Staying on Top of Oral Hygiene During Summer Vacation

Summer is in full swing and chances are your Little Hero is out on action-packed adventures! With all of these heightened activity levels, your Little Hero might lose sight of one of the most important fights out there: the battle for amazing oral health. At Little Heroes Pediatric Dentistry, we put our super powers to work to create a helpful set of tips that will make oral hygiene an integral part of your young one’s summer vacation.

Don’t Stop Now!

Family trips, days at the pool and camping can take up a big chunk of your Little Hero’s summer! It might be necessary to remind them of the importance of brushing twice a day and flossing regularly to keep that smile bright and healthy. You can additionally help your Little Hero gear up by letting him/her get some brand new super tools! A good toothbrush and toothpaste can be the perfect way to keep fighting for a healthier set of teeth.

Keep Up with the Checkups!

The school year can be busy and not every parent wants to pull his or her child out of class for a routine checkup. Don’t worry, the good news is that summer vacation is the perfect time to catch up with those dentist appointments! The heroic team at Little Heroes Pediatric Dentistry is ready to equip your young ones and get them ready for a summer of optimum oral hygiene!

Encourage Healthy Snacking!

Summer is synonymous with snacking, but this shouldn’t mean chips, candies and sodas. It’s important to keep your kitchen stocked with fresh fruits and veggies for your Little Hero to chow down on at any time! You’ll feel great when your group of children goes straight for the juicy strawberries and apples instead of the chips and candies.

Keep Up the Fight!

The ravenous Sugarbugs take no breaks and your Little Hero shouldn’t either! With a powerful set of super weapons at his/her disposal and the support of our super sidekicks, those bright and shining smiles can stay healthy year-round.
