SHOPPING FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL SUPPLIES? DON'T FORGET A NEW TOOTHBRUSH!

At Lakeport Dental, we know how life can be hectic for families, especially when September’s routines keep parents hopping and children are busy with schoolwork and extra-curricular activities.

​It’s back-to-school time, and when that hits, we all feel the tension summer’s passing brings.

Much like you check your smoke detector batteries when daylight saving time arrives and departs, always replace your toothbrush every three months as recommended by the Canadian Dental Association. At Lakeport Dental, we have a system. We replace our toothbrushes at back-to -school time, at Christmas break, at March break and when school ends for the summer break.

When you are making your lists for back-to-school shopping, put toothbrushes on your family list. If sales are good, stock up! It never hurts to have a few extra in the cupboard.
Make back-to-school time a time for re-introducing routines for your family. It won’t be long before life has settled down and the chaos of back-to-school is reduced to regularity for both schoolwork and extra-curricular activities.

Slipping some improved oral health habits into your routine can only be a good thing! New toothbrushes and autumn checkups are certainly a good place to start.

Let’s talk about routine check-ups! To make an appointment, call our office at 905-934-0235.
