Top 3 reasons why your child needs a back-to-school dental checkup.
1) Summer sweet tooth. During the hot summer days, the consumption of soda, ice cream, popsicles, etc are more likely to increase so having a thorough teeth cleaning and examination is necessary to help prevent cavities from developing.
2) Summer routines. OK, there's no summer routines for kids! I'm not surprised if many kids conveniently forget to brush and floss their teeth before bed during the summer months.
3) A successful school year. Children with poor oral health are more likely to miss school or unable to focus in class due to dental pain. Study has shown absences caused by pain are linked to poorer school performance.

Have you thought about using charcoal toothpaste? Before you do, please read the article below.

Charcoal Toothpastes Don’t Whiten Teeth, Review Says.
BBC News Online (UK) (5/10) reported a review in the British Dental Journal claims charcoal-based toothpastes are a “marketing gimmick” with no scientific evidence to support claims they whiten teeth. The authors add that the toothpastes may increase the risk of tooth decay and staining, and that “excessive brushing with them can do more harm then good.”

MarketWatch (5/10, Pesce) reported a 2017 study in The Journal of the American Dental Association analyzed more than 100 articles on charcoal and charcoal-based toothpastes and powders and determined there was “insufficient clinical and laboratory data” to support charcoal toothpaste’s safety or effectiveness, and warned dentists and patients to “be cautious” in using them. American Dental Association spokesman Dr. Matt Messina told MarketWatch, “Not only is it not beneficial, but it’s potentially dangerous.” He added, “This is where I have to speak out, and where the [dental] profession has to speak out.” The ADA instead “recommends speaking with your dentist about your teeth whitening options, which can depend upon the severity of your stains as well as any underlying health issues that could be discoloring your teeth. Or select a whitening toothpaste with the ADA Seal of Acceptance, which verifies that the toothpaste is safe and lives up to its claims.”
