Now that Memorial Day weekend is behind us, we thought today would be a great time to tell our wonderful patients that June is National Smile Month, and a good time to remind all our patients to practice good oral hygiene between your visits to Pediatric Dental Specialists.
Here are a few simple steps you can take to improve your oral health so that you may celebrate National Smile Month for many years to come:
* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. Here's a helpful video showing you how to brush with your braces on.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth.
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks during your orthodontic treatment.
* Visit with Drs. Planells, Sanchez or Cortez regularly (usually every six months apart).
If you have questions about any of these tips, we encourage you to give us a call at (562) 377-1375.
We hope you all had a memorable Memorial Day weekend and now we want everyone to get out there and share your beautiful smiles with the world!

Many people are afraid of going to the dentist because they are afraid of the pain that is associated with dental procedures. However, you can save your child from having to deal with such fears for the rest of their life by making their first dental experience a pleasant one. A pediatric dentist is a dentist who is educated and trained to work with children and their dental needs.
