Healthy Living Starts With A Smile

By October 11, 2024No Comments

A family is engaged in brushing their teeth at a bathroom sink, emphasizing personal care and hygiene.

What comes to mind when you hear the term “healthy living?” A dinner plate with a grilled chicken breast and steamed broccoli? The sound of your feet rhythmically hitting the ground on your favorite jogging path? A cholesterol test indicating that your arteries are looking good? If you pictured a white, healthy smile or a dental X-ray showing no decay, we salute you.

At 30A Smiles, we encourage everyone with a smile (that includes you!) to include oral health in your definition of “healthy living.”

When done appropriately and consistently, brushing and flossing are fundamental to everyday oral hygiene. Brushing should be done at least twice a day. We recommend a soft-bristled toothbrush to shield your gums. Brush your teeth in small, circular motions for 2-3 minutes, and make sure you reach all the surfaces.

Flossing should be done once a day and is needed to reach the areas where a toothbrush cannot. A wide variety of floss can be found at Inlet Beach stores, so experiment until you find one you like.

I’m doctor Derek Fleitz of 30A Smiles. As a healthcare provider, I am committed to helping each of my patients benefit from oral health and avoid tooth woes that can compromise their all-around health.

And just as some healthcare providers offer cosmetic procedures, I also provide services that improve the aesthetics of your smile. Ask us about porcelain veneers, dental implants, invisible braces, white fillings, inlays/onlays, and same-day teeth whitening.

For more information, call 30A Smiles today to schedule a consultation.
