Healthy Smile Hack: Summer Dentist Appointments

June 18, 2015 By Shelby Tatomir

Recognize this short list of smart strategies?

•   Arrive at the DMV the minute it opens.

•   Buy next year’s holiday decorations the day after Christmas.

•   Cook meals in bulk and freeze the rest.

Well, here’s another life hack: Schedule a dentist appointment during the summer. Summer break is the prime time to send every family member to the dentist.

Why?

It’s easy.

Your summer schedule may be filled with camps and sports, but at least your kids won’t miss school. And if your child begins the school year at a different time than most, book an appointment around other schools’ start sessions to avoid the back-to-school rush.

It’s satisfying.

We all know how good it feels to cross one more errand off our to-do list. And while you’re at it, schedule any other routine appointments you or your family may need.

It’s (probably) air-conditioned.

If your dentist’s office is like most, it’s crisp, cool, and air-conditioned. Take a break from the heat for some dentistry A/C. Sit back, relax, and enjoy your frosty check-up. You might not be on the beach, but much like the water in the Caribbean, your smile will be crystal clear.

After you’re done at the dentist, remember to schedule another check-up for 6 months later. Have a smile-filled, stress-free summer!
