In the midst of making sure your kid is registered, buying their school supplies, and easing them back into the schedule of the school week, you may forget to floss or miss a brushing session on occasion. Here are a few tips for getting your oral hygiene back on the right track for the new school year so you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glammdentistry.com\/blog\/\">impress your dentist<\/a> when you see them for your next exam and cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Re-establish Your Oral Hygiene Regimen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people enjoy staying up late regularly during the summer, and this can make it easy to enjoy meals or beverages later at night. While there isn\u2019t anything wrong with this in itself, this habit can sometimes crowd your oral hygiene sessions out of your schedule. When starting the new school year, remember that your daily oral hygiene routine should include flossing, antibacterial mouthwash, and brushing at least twice to keep your teeth clean, freshen your breath, and prevent nasty oral infections like tooth decay and gum disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cut Back on Your Sugary Treats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The summer months are often a little too hot for comfort, making cold sweet treats like soda, ice cream, snow cones, and popsicles extremely popular. While these items can be a great way to cool down on a scorching afternoon, they are also heavy with sugar that feeds the harmful oral bacteria that cause gum disease and tooth decay. When the school year starts, make sure that you and your family are consuming these treats in moderation while getting most of your hydration by drinking water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule Your Next Dental Exam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The American Dental Association urges everyone to have a routine exam and cleaning at their dentist\u2019s office every six months. This gives them the opportunity to have their teeth monitored by a dental professional while receiving advice on better oral hygiene and having issues corrected in their early stages. Regular dental visits can prevent painful and expensive oral health emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Excellent oral care is the key to enjoying a beautiful smile for life. By adopting proper oral hygiene practices while limiting your sugar intake, you can pass your next dental exam with flying colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Jayme Glamm earned her dental degree at Ohio State University College of Dentistry before completing a General Practice Residency at the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine.
