The Holidays Are The Best Time To Make Your Smile Bright


by Martin Giniger, DMD, MsD, PhD

It’s that wonderful time of year again. As the leaves begin to change colors we know that autumn is upon us, and the holiday season is not far behind. It's a time of the year for family, co-workers and friends to gather together to give thanks and celebrate.  And if you want your smile to shine in those holiday photos there is still time to brighten up your pearly whites. Just follow these tips for a healthy mouth for the holiday season and all year round:

Begin With the Basics
Brush your teeth two minutes, twice a day and floss daily.  This simple measures are the foundation for a healthy, bright smile and fresh breath. Brushing and flossing remove plaque and food debris that can cause tooth decay and bad breath.

Purchase the Power Swabs® Smile Rejuvenation System
Whitening your teeth with the Power Swabs® Smile Rejuvenation System is the natural, easy, inexpensive way to almost instantly brighten your smile. It works great on teeth that are dark due to staining (food, coffee, smoking, etc.) and it also works on great on crowns, caps, veneers and bonding. It even works on dentures! Simply rub one Power Swabs® Stain-Out Swab™ and one Power Swabs® Whiten Swab™ on your teeth daily followed by rinsing, once a day for 5 minutes, and you will be amazed at how easily and conveniently you can achieve a beautiful clean and white smile. You will see a noticeable 2 shade difference after just one use and on average your teeth will be 5-6 shades whiter after 1 week. And here's a tip for keeping your teeth white: purchase the Power Swabs® Maintenance System that will allow you to continue to swab your teeth once a week to make sure your smile is as white as it can be.

Choose Your Healthy Holiday Snacks Wisely
This year at holiday parties instead of the sweet treats, cakes and cookies, munch on a carrot, a stick of celery or an apple. Snacks of crispy, fresh fruits and vegetables help clean stickier foods and plaque off your teeth, while stepping up your saliva flow to help wash away bacteria from teeth, tongue and gums that can cause bad breath. If you want to keep your smile bright, you should avoid drinking soda, black tea, coffee and red wine, which can stain your teeth. If you do drink these, you can use a straw to prevent discoloration of the upper front teeth or you can rinse your mouth with water immediately after consuming these beverages.
