Oral Health Awareness Month: 5 Tips From Our Pros!
Hey Kenosha, Racine, and Walworth families! Did you know April shines a spotlight on something super important? It’s Oral Health Awareness Month! Our friendly team at Kenosha Community Health Center and Pillar Health is here to share easy tips to keep those smiles of yours sparkly and healthy.
1. Brushing is Your Best Friend
Brushing twice a day keeps the dentist away—well, not really, but it sure keeps those cavities at bay! Use a fluoride toothpaste and give your teeth a good scrub for 2 minutes. It’s like giving your teeth a spa treatment twice a day!
2. Don’t Skip the Floss
Flossing might seem like a chore, but it’s like the secret to keep plaque away. It gets those sneaky food bits out from between your teeth and gums. So, remember to floss once a day to keep the troubles away from your teeth and gums!
3. Say Yes to Water
Soda and sugary drinks might be tempting, but water is the real MVP for your teeth. It helps wash away food bits and keeps your mouth from getting too dry. Plus, it’s just plain good for you!
4. Snack Smart
We all love a good snack, but try to grab an apple or some carrots instead of reaching for candy or chips. Crunchy, healthy snacks are not just good for your body; they’re like a natural toothbrush for your teeth!
5. Visit Us Regularly
We’re not just saying this because we like to see you (which we do!), but regular check-ups are key to catching any tooth troubles early. Plus, we give pretty awesome cleanings that leave your teeth feeling super smooth.
So, there you have it —simple steps to keep those smiles bright and shining in Kenosha, Racine, and Walworth counties and beyond. Remember, taking care of your teeth is a big deal, and we’re here to help every step of the way. Let’s make this April the month we all commit to better oral health!
