Detox with lemons

However you choose to celebrate the holiday, we hope that it’s special! If we can impart one last piece of advice to keep your smile shining, it is this: Bring a travel toothbrush and toothpaste along to the festivities if you know you’ll be eating sugary food and drink. Brushing your teeth or swishing with water immediately after will help ensure that sugar does not sit on your teeth for too long.
And a friendly and cautious reminder that if you enjoy hard candy or frozen sweets, try not to bite into them!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from our family to yours!
