Back to School – less than a month for Western Students!

As we close in on the final weeks of summer it’s time to start planning for back to school. This time of year it can be easy to get swept up in the long list of things that we need to get done before jumping back into our academic worlds. Like that last minute tooth cleaning you were going to get before the first day of classes so that your smile can be at it’s bright and shiniest. Well have no fear, Bellingham Dental Group is here to help. There is still time to get in for a quick and easy cleaning by our friendly smile enhancing professionals. Just give us a call at 360-734-6190 and we’ll get you in and out with a bright new smile for the new school year.

Once school is back underway it can also be easy to forget our regular oral hygiene. With everything to keep track of, it’s easy to forget to brush and floss after meals. Especially when constantly on the go or rushing between classes. An easy way to prepare for this can be as simple as keeping a travel size toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash or a small hand full of floss picks in your backpack or bag. It can also be beneficial to have some sugar-free gum on hand for after meals to clear out some of the bacteria that can cause bad breath. Look for the ADA seal on the gum you choose to make sure it’s been approved to be beneficial to your teeth.
