Cheers to a healthier mouth!

You’ve heard of Dry January? It’s become quite a popular trend where people give up alcohol for the entire month of January. Now, aside from the obvious health benefits of cutting back on booze, did you know that going teetotal for a month can also have some positive effects on your oral health? Yep, it’s true! So, what are the benefits?

Take a break

First things first, alcohol consumption can wreak havoc on oral health. Not only does alcohol dry out our mouths, but it also contains sugars and acids that can lead to tooth decay and erosion. By taking a break from alcohol for just one month, we can give our mouths a chance to recover and restore moisture levels. This means healthier teeth and gums in the long run.

Breathe easy

Dry January can also have a positive impact on our breath. Alcohol is notorious for causing bad breath, as it can lead to a reduction in saliva production. Saliva is important because it helps to wash away bacteria and food particles that can cause stale breath. By abstaining from alcohol for a month, we can give our saliva production a boost and say goodbye to beer breath.

Another benefit of Dry January is fewer stains on teeth. We all know what red wine and other dark-coloured drinks can do. By avoiding these beverages for a month, we’re giving our teeth a chance to naturally whiten and regain their sparkle.

Hold steady

Then there’s our regular oral hygiene routine. When we’re under the influence of alcohol, our motivation to take care of our teeth can weaken. After a night on the tiles, we are more likely to skip brushing and flossing. It’s difficult to not just dive under the duvet! But by taking a break from alcohol, we can regain our focus on maintaining a healthy oral hygiene routine. This means brushing and flossing regularly, using mouthwash, and visiting the dentist for a check-up.

Feel good factor

A month of abstinence can have some indirect benefits for our oral health as well. When you commit to going without alcohol for a whole month, it can boost your self-confidence and feeling of well-being. When you feel good about yourself, you’re more likely to take care of yourself. This includes everything from eating a balanced diet – which is great for teeth too – to maintaining a positive attitude towards your oral health.

So, there you have it, from healthier teeth and gums to fresher breath and whiter smiles, there’s a lot to gain by giving up alcohol for just one month. Cheers to a healthier mouth and a healthier 2024!

How Sedation Dentistry Can Help You Feel Relaxed

If dental appointments make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. At Evolve Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves access to comfortable, stress-free dental care. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Portishead.

Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you feel deeply relaxed during your treatment. While you’re still awake and able to respond, you’ll feel calm and often have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.

Sedation can be an excellent option if:

- You experience severe dental anxiety
- You have a strong gag reflex
- You need a complex or lengthy treatment
- You’ve avoided the dentist for years due to fear

At Evolve Dentistry, our experienced team will carefully assess your needs and discuss the sedation options available to you. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we take the time to explain each step so you know exactly what to expect.

By choosing sedation dentistry in Portishead, you can finally receive the dental care you need without the fear or worry. Many of our patients tell us that after trying sedation, they no longer put off their appointments and feel much more confident about their oral health.

If you’ve been avoiding the dentist because of anxiety, we invite you to discover how gentle, compassionate care and sedation options can transform your experience. #sedation #sedationdentist #awardwinning #beyourbestself #Northsomerset #freeconsultation #multiawardwinning #patientsatisfaction #compositebonding #patientsfirst #newpatients #healthysmiles #naturalteeth #acceptingnewpatients #nailsea #portishead #clevedon #portisheadmarina #dentist #dentures
