Give Dad Something to Smile About This Father’s Day

Dads have a habit of looking after everyone else first.
They’re the fixers, drivers, advisers, supporters, protectors and, of course, the source of more than a few questionable dad jokes. But when life gets busy, looking after their own health, including their dental health, can sometimes slip down the list.
This Father’s Day, we think it’s a good time to change that.
When Did Dad Last Visit the Dentist?
It’s easy to wait until a tooth hurts before booking a dental appointment. But regular dental check-ups are about much more than treating a toothache.
A check-up gives your dentist the opportunity to examine your teeth, gums and mouth and identify potential problems before they become more uncomfortable or require more extensive treatment.
Professional cleaning also helps remove plaque and tartar that regular brushing and flossing can miss, helping to keep teeth and gums healthy.
For dads who haven’t been to the dentist for a while, a check-up is a simple way to get their dental health back on track.
A Healthy Smile Matters at Every Age
Our dental needs can change as we get older.
Years of coffee and tea, everyday wear, old fillings, grinding, gum problems or simply putting off that dental appointment can all affect the health and appearance of our teeth.
Some signs that it may be time for Dad to see the dentist include:
Bleeding or tender gums
Tooth sensitivity
Persistent bad breath
Toothache or discomfort when chewing
Chipped, cracked or worn teeth
Changes in the colour or appearance of teeth
A dental check-up that is well overdue
And even when everything feels perfectly fine, regular preventive dental care can help keep it that way.
Give Dad the Gift of a Healthy Smile

After all the years he’s spent looking after everyone else, he deserves to be looked after too.
