Oakdale Dental - Oakville 2014

May 2014: Oakville Dental Newsletter

Spring has taken hold and the great Canadian Summer is upon us. With the days getting longer, most of us are spending more time in the sun. Aside from the obvious safety tips like putting on sunscreen and drinking plenty of water, there are a lot of precautions you can take to make sure you're safe in the great outdoors:

Wear a helmet when you cycle
Make sure you wear supportive footwear when going on long walks and hikes
Use a good mouth guard for playing sports such as soccer and football to protect your teeth.
Contact our office and we can provide you with a high quality, properly fitted mouth guard.

Make your Mom smile on Mother's Day on Sunday, May 11th and enjoy the Victoria Day long weekend and holiday Monday on May 19th. We hope that you make some great plans for the moms in your life.

Until next time, great things start with a smile!

Top 7 Reasons for Regular Hygiene Therapy!

Proper oral hygiene is important not only for your appearance, but also for your overall health. Improper oral hygiene may lead to infection, gum disease, bone and tooth loss, circulation and cardiovascular disease, and even strokes.

Why is a regular hygiene therapy (formerly referred to as "dental cleanings") part of good oral hygiene?

Good Oral Health: During your hygiene treatment, the hygienist can let you know if you're maintaining good oral health, and make appropriate suggestions if you're not.

Early Detection of Dental Problems: Any possible problems can be detected during dental check ups, allowing for proper and timely treatment. Minor problems such as cavities or early gum disease can be treated and do not have to become major problems.

Keeping Your Teeth: Regular hygiene therapy, along with check ups, brushing, and flossing, are important to let you keep your own teeth for as long as possible, and helping you to maintain your normal chewing function and overall good health.
