National Children’s Dental Health Month

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month. Lifecare Family Health & Dental Center reminds parents that their children can avoid cavities. Just follow our Tips for Healthy Teeth!

Ageless Tips for Healthy Teeth

  • Brush at least twice a day for two minutes each time.
  • Remember to floss daily too; it helps remove particles between your teeth.
  • Visit a dentist at least yearly, and preferably twice a year for professional cleaning and check-up.
  • Replace toothbrushes or brush heads every 3 months to prevent worn bristles.
  • Avoid too many sugary sweets, as well as sticky foods that can damage your teeth.
  • Avoid acidic beverages (cola, tea, coffee, soda, etc…) as they wear teeth down.
  • Ensure your children never go to bed with anything other than water in their bottle to prevent tooth damage.

Call us at 330-454-200 to make a dental appointment at either our Canton or Massillon health center.
