Their priority becomes their little one and it\u2019s easy to skimp on essential things like a good night\u2019s rest. Unfortunately, this not only impacts their overall well-being but their oral health. Without enough sleep, their body has a tougher time keeping bones and tissues healthy. This can begin to weaken teeth and gums. As a matter of fact, mild to moderate gum disease is common for women who are pregnant. Getting enough calcium and magnesium is vital during this period of motherhood. Calcium keeps the bones strong, and magnesium helps to transport it throughout the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gift Ideas for a Healthy Smile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A comfy and luxurious sleep mask will get the expectant or new mom in your life to get some much-needed rest. Some bath salts infused with magnesium will help them to relax <em>and<\/em> get some nutrients!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mothers with Growing Children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Tip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As little ones grow, life just gets busier and busier. Between school, activities, and family time, a mom\u2019s schedule is nonstop. This can cause them to neglect caring for their smile. One of the best ways to make keeping a busy mother\u2019s teeth and gums healthy is to make it a family affair! They can use fun apps, like BrushDJ, to make a dental hygiene routine engaging and fun. It also can give essential reminders like replacing toothbrushes or scheduling a checkup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gift Ideas for a Healthy Smile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A small, fancy travel case filled with oral health care essentials like a mini-toothbrush and floss will help them tend to their oral health on the go. Additionally, a Bluetooth shower speaker can get them in a relaxed mood as they attend to their dental routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empty Nester Mothers &amp; Grandmothers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Tip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As women age, their hormones begin to change. This can result in oral health changes, such as bone loss in the jaw. Fortunately, people are living healthier and longer now; with proper care, they can prevent any significant changes to their smile. By choosing nutrient-rich foods and getting plenty of exercise, they can keep their teeth, gums, and jaw strong and healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gift Ideas for a Healthy Smile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An electric toothbrush makes it easy and fun to stay on top of daily brushing. Also, you can get the special older mother in your life an upgraded iPhone or tablet so they can use various apps to track their health, hormones, and dental health; they can also give helpful tips to keep their smile vibrant and healthy for years to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Salt Run Family Dentistry is eager to help you keep you and your family\u2019s smiles healthy throughout every stage of life.
