The Tooth Fairy Can Deliver More Than Money

February 5, 2022 Comments Off on The Tooth Fairy Can Deliver More Than Money

Every parent wants their child to experience cavity free dental exams. It is no fun taking your child to a dentist appointment when a cavity needs to be filled. By getting your child in the habit of properly brushing and caring for their teeth early then you will experience more dental exams ending with “No cavities.” So for the sake of you and your child get your child in the habit of brushing every day at least twice a day.
I have tried many different methods to keep my children interested in brushing. I have tried the musical toothpaste lid, buying overpriced toothbrushes because they were imprinted with the newest superhero and I even bought the toothbrushes that twirl and spin hoping to keep my children interested. Well, they all worked for a while, at least until the novelty wore off. I needed another way to help keep my kids motivated and keep up with their brushing.
Tooth brush charts are a great way to keep your child interested in brushing. Fun stickers and rewards are always a great parenting tool. Another tool that is sometimes overlooked by parents is the Tooth Fairy. Every kid is excited to get their first visit from the Tooth Fairy. This is a great reason to take the opportunity to let the Tooth fairy help promote good brushing as well. This magical little note reminding your child to keep brushing because she is excited to collect nice shiny teeth will give your child something to work on. If your child starts to lose interest in brushing simply send a nice little note reminding them that the Tooth Fairy is counting on their shiny teeth.
Enjoy the magical time when your children believe in the Tooth Fairy. Enjoy the twinkle in their eye and the smile across their face. Take advantage of this awesome opportunity to help your child understand the importance of good dental care.…

High Costs of Dental Care & Ways to Save Money on It

July 10, 2021 Comments Off on High Costs of Dental Care & Ways to Save Money on It

Many people do not like going to the dentist, not necessarily for the pain they inflict on your gums but the pain inflicted on your pocket book. Owning dental insurance & a few other things can help you lessen the pain dental care leaves on your wallet.
One of the main reasons dental insurance is overlooked by many people is that they generally don’t go to the dentist as often as other types of healthcare professionals. This is many times because people will put going to the dentist off unless they have some type of horrid pain coming from an abscessed tooth, chipped teeth, large cavities & a few other things.
This is a mistake because dental care is extremely important in your overall health. In fact poor dental health has been reported to effect such major organs as your heart! That’s a pretty darn important part of our bodies to be neglecting. So in neglecting to regularly see a dentist you are actually neglecting the rest of your overall health as well.
So what can you do to save some money on your dental health or at least make it affordable? Well for the most part if you can afford a low monthly payment then dental insurance is by far the best answer for you. If you can’t afford anymore monthly payments and find yourself constantly strapped for cash it can be pretty difficult to get yourself quality dental care but there are some things you can do.
If you are trying to get free dental care charitable dental clinics are basically your only option. Sometimes it takes quite a bit of investigating to locate one & get into them but it’s worth it to help better your overall health. Another way to save money on dental care is to offer your dentist services or good in trade. This is a pretty old fashioned method but don’t be surprised when he or she accepts your offer. Just because someone is a doctor doesn’t mean they don’t require some of the most basic services available such as lawn care, having their vehicle washed, shoveling snow from in front of their office. All of these services have a value so just because you don’t have money doesn’t mean you can’t afford dental care, it just takes some creative thinking to get it!…
