April 2021: Tips, eNews & More!

 

It's the moment we've all been waiting for; spring is finally here! With longer days and warmer weather, the days ahead are looking bright. We can finally swap our winter jackets for lighter clothing, enjoy more outdoor activities and soak in the sun. Remember to stay safe and practice social distancing as you begin to spend more time outdoors.

Stress brought on by the pandemic can directly affect your oral health by causing an increase in teeth grinding and jaw clenching, also known as bruxism. Take a look at our article below to see if you have the symptoms of bruxism. As always, prevention is better than cure, so book an appointment at our dental office for a check-up or teeth cleaning. Your oral health is our top priority!

Stay safe and have a healthy month,



Dr. Stephen Kay, Dr. Melvyn Kay, and the Kaydental Team
