Fortunately, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.granddentallakezurich.com\/blog\/\">dentist in Lake Zurich<\/a> is here to share three effective and smile-worthy presents to give to family and friends who want to take better care of their smile this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flavorful Dental Products<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While mint-flavored dental products tend to dominate drugstore shelves, there are alternative options that are meant to entice other oral hygiene-conscious individuals. Children enjoy the flavors of bubblegum and berry, creating a more enjoyable brushing experience. There are also different types of floss a person can purchase that are void of the traditional minty flavor. But no matter which ones are purchased, it\u2019s important to remember that there must be an American Dental Association Seal of Approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Non-Sugary Candy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Filling stockings with candy canes, chocolate, and other gummy goodies is a tradition, but it doesn\u2019t have to be when buying for someone who wants to avoid the potential for cavities and tooth decay this year. Instead of adding in a box of peanut butter-filled Santas, consider filling their stockings with fresh fruit, sugarless gum, nuts, or even raisins. These are much healthier to eat and are less likely to try and stick to the chewing surfaces of teeth. That means their smiles will be better protected against decay and cavities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also the option of staying away from food altogether and instead, purchasing small toys that children and adults will love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electric Toothbrush<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the adults who have stockings, buying them a new electric toothbrush is a great way to help them in their pursuit of better oral health. Research shows that these devices make it easier for individuals to effectively clean all areas of the mouth, and it minimizes the chances of not brushing for the proper amount of time. Because many contain their own timers, the lucky family member or friend who receives a new electric toothbrush will enjoy this great feature when taking better care of their smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Give the gift of improved oral health this holiday season and watch as loved ones enjoy longer-lasting smiles in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Grand Dental \u2013 Lake Zurich<br><\/strong>At Grand Dental \u2013 Lake Zurich, we have two general dentists, an orthodontist, and a periodontist under a single roof.
