The holiday season is a time for joy, family gatherings, and delicious treats. However, it’s also a time when oral health can easily take a backseat. Between sugary desserts, festive drinks, and disrupted routines, your teeth face extra challenges during the holidays. Neglecting dental care now can lead to cavities, gum issues, and costly dental visits later. Here’s how to enjoy the season without compromising your smile. 

At University Pediatric Dentistry Dental Associates, we know keeping those pearly whites in tip-top shape is a team effort. Today, we will discuss a crucial step of oral health that is often overlooked - flossing!

With seven convenient UPD locations, including services for individuals with disabilities, our pediatric dental offices ensure that every child receives the care they deserve. But oral health isn't just about visits to the dentist; it starts at home with a daily routine of toothbrush twice daily and good oral hygiene habits that can last a lifetime.
