Do you want to give your child a gift for a holiday or their birthday that doesn’t just get lost in the toy box? If so, our dentist, Dr. David Blackhurst, has some suggestions for you. If you give your child a dental gift, their smile will be grateful and so will you!
The first gift we recommend is an exciting toothbrush. This could be an electric toothbrush (who doesn’t like those?), a toothbrush that lights up, or even a toothbrush that plays music when your child uses it. This can help your child enjoy their oral hygiene routine, which, in turn, can help them have a healthier smile.
Another gift we recommend is a fun flossing tool. Your child might enjoy flossing their smile with a water flosser. This handy device sprays water into the mouth and cleans the crevices between the teeth. This can make flossing fun and exciting, but be careful—it might result in a water fight or two.
The last gift we recommend is the gift of a straight smile. If your child has a crooked smile, their self-esteem might be low and they might not like their appearance. If braces or another orthodontic treatment can help them, surprise them with the good news of their upcoming orthodontic journey! This can help them have the smile of their dreams.
