Because oral hygiene can affect a student's overall health, we've got 7 top tips! And to ensure your child has the gear needed, we are offering FREE Smile Swag Bags at our office.
All local students are invited to Sunshine Children's Dentistry to pick up a FREE toothbrush set for their backpack! This Smile Swag Bag gift includes a toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, pencil, eraser, and more.
Here are 7 dental tips for Back to School:
Establish a routine: Brush your teeth twice a day and floss at least once a day.
Get a dental exam: Regular check-ups can help prevent pain and minimize impact on your schedule. Our pediatric dentists can see issues that you can't and take steps to prevent minor problems from becoming major ones. Need an appointment? Call 910-762-7736.
Avoid sugary drinks and treats: Eating or drinking too much sugar can lead to tooth decay and cavities.
Drink lots of water: Drinking water throughout the day can help prevent cavities by flushing bacteria from your mouth and preventing acid from building up on your teeth.
Teach your child how to floss: Flossing can help prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
Use a mouth guard: If your child plays sports, a mouth guard can help protect their teeth, mouth, and gums from injury.

WHY? Our Sunshine Team genuinely cares about the children of our community, and we want to do what we can to provide kids with a healthy smile during the school year.
Brushing twice daily is important! Studies show that individuals with a healthy oral care routine are generally more physically healthy. And we want to help! Our office wants to give every kid the opportunity to have a healthy smile, so we are providing a FREE toothbrush kit for each child.
We recommend keeping your dental care set in your backpack or lunchbox for a quick cleaning after lunch. By simply keeping a habit of brushing twice daily and flossing each day, your child can enjoy fresh breath, strong teeth that will last late into their age, prevention of gum disease (Gingivitis), sparkling stain-free teeth, and drastically lower the chances of developing dementia. Additionally, it can save your family money in the long run, too, because you can avoid costly medical/oral ailments.
To ensure all your children’s teeth are ready to SMILE all school-year long, be sure to visit Sunshine Children’s Dentistry. The American Dental Association recommends oral checkups twice annually for children (and adults, too). QUESTIONS? We are a resource to you and are happy to answer any questions you may have about your child’s changing smile. We believe that oral health should be FUN and something to SMILE about!
