Mother's Day is just a few days away....

Let’s face it; your mom is probably the first person who took you to the dentist and showed you the importance of proper oral hygiene. She probably even had to constantly force you to brush your teeth when you were little. With that in mind, remember the great things your mom taught you this weekend as you celebrate Mother’s Day. There are plenty of fun events and restaurants in Austin so treat your mom to something special! We have some great gift ideas for Mother's Day, like Kor Teeth Whitening and other dental products. Check out our website or call us at 512-263-8337 to find out more. We have dental offices in Lakeway Tx and Austin Tx.

Conquer the Oral Hygiene Aisle

We’ve all been there, standing in the dental care aisle overwhelmed by the selection of items when you ask yourself, ‘Which one should I choose?!’ From manual to electric toothbrushes to special floss and even whitening trays, it’s easy to get lost on the ‘hype’ of a product rather than its actual effectiveness. Everyone is different, so it’s difficult to just say this product is the best. Most importantly, you need to find what works best for you, which may begin with a few mistakes, but will eventually be extremely beneficial to you and your family. When shopping keep three things in mind: Soft bristle toothbrush: Hard ones can slowly wear away your enamel Fluoride toothpaste: Will help control tooth decay (Fluoride soaks in and strengthens teeth) Floss, Floss, FLOSS!: Flossing gets between the teeth and gets what your toothbrush can’t! The choice of floss is yours-scented, unscented, waxed or not, the job is still the same. So the next time you go the grocery store, don’t panic! You can conquer the Oral Hygiene Aisle. If you have more questions about dental products, toothbrushes, floss, or your overall dental care, feel free to contact our Downtown Austin Tx Dental Office or our Lakeway Tx Dental Office. We offer a full range of dental services from general dental care to cosmetic dentistry and more!
