Gum Health is Wealth

Did you know your gums are like the superheroes of your smile? They're super important for keeping your mouth healthy and happy! It's #GumDiseaseAwarenessMonth, and we're all about spreading the word on how to keep those gums in tip-top shape. Here are some friendly tips to keep your gums feeling great:

🦷 Give an electric toothbrush a whirl! Brush twice a day, especially before bed. Trust us, your gums will thank you!
🦷 Try to floss daily. Extra kudos if you're into water flossing – it's like a mini spa day for your gums!
🦷 Hold off on the antiseptic mouthwash unless your dentist says otherwise. We want to support your microbiome, not destroy it.🦷 Consider giving your mouth some love with an oral probiotic - your gums will appreciate the extra TLC!
🍊 Keep your diet balanced with plenty of vitamins. Think Vitamin C, A, D3/K2, CoQ10, and B12 – they're like little superheroes for your gums!
💨 Remember to breathe through your nose – it's not just good for your gums, it's good for your whole body!
💧 And of course, stay hydrated. Aim for half your weight in ounces daily. Your gums love a good drink of water!

Staying on top of your gum health will set you up for a healthier body in general, as gum disease can lead to numerous other concerns. Also, know your partner! If they have signs of gum disease, it can easily be transferred to you. So go ahead, show those gums some love! They're rooting for you (pun totally intended)! 😄💪
