And the change of seasons might mean it\u2019s time for some adjustments to your dental care routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fall\u2019s in the Air, and You Can Feel It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might enjoy the brisk weather and the cool autumn breezes, but you\u2019d enjoy fall much more without the tooth sensitivity that cold weather can bring. Sensitivity can be the sign of a cracked tooth, gum disease, or even something as simple as too-energetic brushing. If you\u2019re experiencing sensitivity outdoors or with hot and cold foods, don\u2019t give up your nature walks and hot cider! Give the doctor a call, and we\u2019ll get to the root of your problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fall Sports<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The baseball mitts, surfboards, and water skis have been retired for the year, but that won\u2019t stop you from enjoying exercise and team sports. And while you\u2019re keeping your body healthy, remember to keep your teeth and jaws healthy as well. A mouth guard is an essential piece of equipment for any autumn contact sport like football or soccer, and is also a good idea for biking, skateboarding, and other physical activities where a fall or a collision is a possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fall Feasts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Tis the season for sugary Halloween treats, bountiful Thanksgiving desserts, and those over-the-top holiday lattes. By all means, celebrate the season. And celebrate your dental health (and your overall health) as well by enjoying these treats in moderation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why not take this opportunity to explore some of autumn\u2019s more nutritious seasonal offerings? Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkins, and apples are part of a fall harvest of fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium, calcium, and other nutrients that help keep our teeth and gums their healthiest. (And if the pumpkins and apples make their way into pies, no one will complain.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fall Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many schools require a dental exam before the start of the academic year. If you haven\u2019t made an appointment for your child, now\u2019s the time to do it! And don\u2019t forget a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar. Nothing starts a school year off better than entering the classroom with a bright, healthy smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And don\u2019t forget to call our Braintree, Massachusetts office for your own regular checkup if it\u2019s that time of year. Spring, summer, winter, fall\u2014it\u2019s always the right season for taking care of your dental health!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you already miss the sun\u2019s bright rays, or can\u2019t wait for some cool, crisp weather and colorful leaves, summer is making way for fall.
