BACK-TO-SCHOOL IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!

August means it’s time to get back into routines—and that includes taking care of those smiles!

Before the school year gets too busy, make sure your child is up to date on their dental checkup and cleaning. Regular dental visits can help catch small problems early and keep your child’s smile healthy throughout the school year.

🪥 Back-to-school smile checklist:

✅ Dental checkup & cleaning
✅ Replace that old toothbrush or electric toothbrush head
✅ Stock up on fluoride toothpaste
✅ Refresh those flossing habits
✅ Pack healthy, tooth-friendly snacks
✅ Encourage brushing twice a day for 2 minutes!

A healthy smile is ready to take on a new school year! 🦷

Wishing all of our students, teachers, and families a happy, healthy, and successful school year! 📚✨

🦷 Acid Reflux & Your Teeth 🦷

Acid reflux doesn’t just affect your stomach, it can also impact your teeth. When stomach acid reaches the mouth, it can erode tooth enamel. Over time, this erosion can lead to increased sensitivity, changes in tooth color, and a higher risk of cavities.

Because enamel does not regenerate, ongoing exposure to acid can cause permanent changes to the teeth if left unaddressed. At Gentle Dental Care, we monitor signs of enamel erosion and help patients understand how acid reflux may be affecting their oral health.
