Brush Those Teeth!

I just read a shocking article in the New York Times today about a 2 1/2 year old boy who just had dental surgery. 11 of his 20 baby teeth had cavities. The procedure consisted of a root canal, extraction of two incisors and fillings and crown on the rest of his teeth. His mother said that they began to think about brushing when the boy's teeth became discolored.

Teeth are a vital part of our health.

WebMD.com says there are four important steps to keeping your smile healthy.

1. Brush your teeth at least twice a day for 2-3 minutes 
• I usually turn on music and brush until the song is over to make sure I brush for long enough.
2. Floss regularly
3. Eat healthily
4. Go to the dentist

Take a few extra seconds to brush those teeth every day to keep those pearly whites as healthy as possible!

Love,

Victoria
