June is National Smile Month!

Our friends at the American Dental Association discovered that a person's smile outranked eyes, hair and body as the most important physical feature. After all, there's a big reason why Americans spend about $2.75 billion each year on cosmetic dentistry: folks want to look and feel great.

That brings us to June, also known as National Smile Month. It's a great time to remind all of our patients to practice good oral hygiene between your visits to Gustafson and Morningstar Family Dentistry.

Here are a few simple steps you can take to improve your oral health so that you may celebrate National Smile Month for many years to come:

* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth.
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks.
* Visit our office regularly (usually every six months apart).


If you have questions about any of these tips, we encourage you to give us a call at 248.541.8770. We hope you enjoyed your Memorial Day weekend everyone!
