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 footpath? A cholesterol test indicating that your arteries are in great shape? If you pictured a white, healthy smile or a dental X-ray showing no cavities, we salute you.
At Blaisdell Family Dentistry, we urge everyone with a smile (that includes you!) to include oral health in your definition of “healthy living.”
When done effectively and consistently, brushing and flossing are an essential component of everyday oral hygiene. Brushing should be done at least twice a day. We recommend a soft-bristled toothbrush to safeguard your gums. Brush your teeth in small, circular motions for 2-3 minutes, and be certain you reach all the surfaces.
Flossing should be done once a day and is necessary for reaching the areas where a toothbrush cannot. A wide variety of floss can be found at Boise stores, so experiment until find one you like.
I’m Drs. Lynn R. Blaisdell of Blaisdell Family Dentistry. As a healthcare provider, I am dedicated to helping each of my patients reap the benefits of oral health and avoid tooth and gum problems that can compromise their all-around health.
And just as some healthcare providers offer cosmetic procedures, I also serve you with 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.
