The Easter school holidays are fast approaching! Here are a few tips for you and your kids to help reduce the negative effects of excessive chocolate consumption during this time:
Try your best to avoid snacking and nibbling frequently throughout the day. If you have sweets, try to consume them straight after meals
Drink and swill water after eating or drinking to remove acids and restore pH levels
Increase your consumption of mineral foods found in natural dairy and vegetables
Brush twice daily for at least 2 minutes using circular motions at a 45 degree angle
Floss daily and ensure you are flossing properly under the gums, where your toothbrush cannot access
Lastly, don't forget to visit us for your 6 monthly check up and hygiene appointment, to prevent the build up of bacteria and decay
Happy Easter!
