Are you planning a Memorial Day weekend getaway?  Here are a few tips to help you keep tiny teeth healthy - no matter where you are!

Travel Tips for Teeth:

  • Choose Healthy Snacks - Sugary treats may be tempting while traveling, but stick to easy-to-pack healthy snacks instead!  Carrots, broccoli and other veggies are easy to pack into a cooler.  Skip out on fruit juice too - choose water instead!
  • Keep a Toothbrush Handy - Practice good dental care when you're on-the-go.  Keep a travel toothbrush handy so that you can give your teeth a quick brush and rinse at any pitstops.
  • Focus on Teeth Before Bed - Wherever you end up at the end of the day - whether a hotel or a family member's home, don't forget to end the day with thorough brushing and flossing.
