Looking after your teeth this Christmas...
Christmas is a time that we all enjoy a delicious treats like chocolate, mince pies, Christmas pudding, sweets and more.

• Remember that treats with high sugar content such as mince pies can stick to your teeth.
• Don't forget your morning and night routine and never forget to enforce it within your house. Children may get caught up in all the excitement and forget to brush their teeth.
• If you go out to enjoy some festivities, make sure you brush your teeth before bed. Alcohol and sugary drinks can cause damage.
• Have a cheeseboard, cheese is great for your teeth because it restores the natural acid balance and it's a great savoury option after all the sugary treats. 
• Schedule a dental appointment.
• We've all seen it; people opening their beer bottles with their teeth... all we can say is don't do it. The damage is much worse that the thrill of a cool party trick.
