October 2019: Tips, eNews & More!
 
 
Colours changing and temperatures dropping – these scenic views are a great time for cozy long walks with hot cups of coffee – or everything pumpkin spiced? Even though the chilly temperature is not something to look forward to, October does have a lot to offer. From leaves changing colours to enjoying a delicious Thanksgiving feast, or secretly indulging in the Halloween candies – we are all about this excitement!

But remember, as you treat yourself to these delicacies, do not forget about your healthy smile. Make sure you brush and floss your teeth twice a day, drink plenty of water, and come in for a check-up to stay on top of your oral health.

As this is also the month of giving thanks – we would like to thank you for choosing us as your dental care provider and letting us take care of you and your family's oral health.

Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving and a fun-filled Halloween,

Dr. Lawrence Freedman
Bloor Dental Health Centre

  Our dental term of the month is: ABRASION

Abrasion is progressive loss of hard tooth substances caused by mechanical actions. It most commonly affects the premolars and canines and is most frequently caused by incorrect tooth brushing technique. If you have concerns about abrasion, speak with your dental hygienist or switch to an electric toothbrush as they have less abrasive tendencies.
