Preparing Your Mouth For Vacation

July 22, 2016

Hello and welcome to another July edition of the New Albany Implants blog!

Summertime in Indiana sure is nice. But it is also nice to be able to carve out some time to get away with the family for some rest and relaxation. If you are heading anywhere before the school year starts back up again in August, we only ask that while you are enjoying yourself you don’t forget about your smile. We wouldn’t want to see all of your hard work fall apart while you are gone.

As such, today we want to talk about a few oral health considerations to remember when you are travelling. Keep reading and then be sure to get in touch to schedule your next appointment with us!

Take Backups

So many things can go awry once you are out of the state. That’s why we are of the opinion that it never hurts to pack an extra toothbrush, floss, etc.. You don’t want to be stuck without a toothbrush if any of your luggage gets lost or it falls onto an unsanitary ground. The other piece of this is to make sure you are using these items just like you would back at home. If you get the chance, rinsing with fluoride would be all to the good too.

Watch What You Consume

We know it is hard not to let loose when you are out of your usual routine. But we hope you will still be mindful of sugary drinks and snacks. Sugar starts an acid outbreak in your mouth that lasts a good half hour after you eat your last bite. During that time your enamel is softened and can be worn away, leading to the spread of bacteria and the beginnings of cavities. It won’t be any fun to have to come back and deal with fillings in the fall.

Drink Plenty Of Water

Water is so good for your mouth. Drinking plenty of water will help keep bacteria at bay and also keep your breath from turning foul at an inopportune moment. It’s an easy way to help yourself.

Don’t Do Anything Stupid

We are talking only about your mouth. Whatever other decisions you make will be entirely up to you. But, seriously, don’t bite down on exotic foods that could chip your teeth. And don’t use your teeth to open beer bottles and so forth.

Visit New Albany Implants Before You Leave Town

We are your trusted partner for oral health but we can’t do you much good if you never come for a visit. That’s why you should come see us before you hit the road. A preventive dental checkup will freshen up your smile and could help identify any potential issues early. That will also help ensure you aren’t left to deal with painful problems far from home.

We’ll make sure you’re prepared for your summer travels with a comprehensive exam that covers all the bases.

I’m the type of person that is scared of the dentist have been my whole life. I scheduled consultation with Dr Ron and he answered all my questions and more. He and his staff are great they made me feel comfortable the whole time. They used sedation for my implant procedure and it was the best decision I have ever made!! I had zero pain whatsoever. The best thing is that they have gave me the ability to smile again and to be happy. Thank you to everyone at New Albany Implants. I recommend them to anyone needing dental implants.

Amazing experience. If anyone is anxious about seeing a dentist I can assure you don’t have to be with Dr. Receveur. My only regret is not having it done sooner. His staff is pretty awesome too.

Everyone that I have come in contact with at Dr. Receveur's office has been very kind, professional and very knowledgeable. From Jean, Denise, reception and Dr. Receveur himself. They also keep in great communication, which helps out a lot and is highly appreciated. I highly recommend and look forward to my next visit. Thanks!

I recently had implants put in by Dr. Receveur. I was scheduled to have sedation that morning, but wasn't able to due to my sugar issues from diabetes. He assured me he would keep me comfortable so I agreed to go ahead with the procedure. He did just that, he kept me comfortable as promised and I didn't feel a thing. During the procedure he also talked to me the whole time explaining what he was doing, which also helped ease my anxiety. The entire staff there are so nice and informative, they can answer any questions you may have. All I can say is to anyone that is hesitant to have this procedure done, I honestly wish I would have had this done a long time ago! Dr. Receveur and his staff are AMAZING, and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!
