12.01.2022 Not sure what to look for in a toothbrush? Here are a few tips to keep in mind during your next purchase The shape is important - find what handle & brush-size is most comfortable for you. Rounded & soft bristles are great - these are more gentle on your gums! Keep clear of no-name brands - these products could be from a manufacturer that doesn’t value your safety & well-being.... Consider an electric toothbrush - some find these more comfortable & easier to use! Above all, the toothbrush that’s best for you is the one that you’ll use & if you can’t remember when you changed yours last, it’s likely time for a new one!

09.01.2022 What’s the difference between natural sugars & added sugars ? Added sugars are any sugar that is added to food during the manufacturing process, while naturally occurring sugars are an inherent part of foods - nobody put them there. So, can they affect teeth the same? Yes, however foods such as fruit & milk that are made up of small amounts of natural sugars are good for your body & smile due to the vitamins, fibre & minerals they are filled with! ... Processed foods on the other hand, with large quantities of added sugar, often have limited or no nutritional value. As a rule of thumb - it’s suggested that you limit your added sugar consumption to 6 teaspoons (24 grams) or less, per day

02.01.2022 There are so many wonderful reasons to smile

02.01.2022 Halloween is right around the corner & we want to protect our smiles the best we can whilst enjoying our sweet treats! To help maintain healthy pearly whites, here are a few sweet tips: Chocolate is one of the safer sweets as it washes off your teeth easier than other types of sweet treats.... The stickier the lolly, the longer it takes to get washed away by saliva, increasing the risk of tooth decay. Hard candies remain in your mouth for a long period of time, increasing the likelihood of tooth decay.
