National Ice Cream Month!

Did you know that July is National Ice Cream Month? Well, it is! In order to properly prepare for the month, be sure to grab your favorite ice cream flavor and a spoon. You deserve to indulge a little.

At Twohig Dentistry, we all have our own favorite ice cream flavor. Dr. Jim’s favorite is raspberry, Rosanna is a fan of mint chocolate chip, and Dr. Mary Rose like pralines and cream. Yum! Our favorite toppings include butterscotch and hot fudge.

When it comes to sugary summer treats and drinks, it’s important to stay on top of your oral health. Sugar turns into acid which causes tooth decay and can lead to cavities. Our advice is to brush your teeth after eating sugary sweets. If these treats are especially acidic we recommend swishing your mouth with water prior to brushing your teeth.

If you are considering a healthy alternative to sweets and sugary treats, we love frozen bananas! Next time you stop by the store, be sure to pick up some bananas and put them in the freezer. They make for a healthy, refreshing summer treat.

For those looking to set up a visit with our office, be sure to give us a call for scheduling and availability. Please note that for those with upcoming appointments, we are still requiring masks in office. If you have any additional questions, please reach out.

From all of us at Twohig Dentistry, we hope you have a fun-filled and healthy summer!
