At My Sparkling Smile We’ve tried all the products to treat dry cracked or chapped lips!
From Aquaphor, chapstick, beeswax, vasoline, lip gloss and more! Dr Sparkles discovered that the quickest way to treat dry chapped or cracked lips is using: vasoline with Cocoa Butter!

Why does it work better? It’s water based so your lips can actually absorb the moisture. The cocoa butter smells good, it seems to provide a more moisture rich quality without the taste or consistency of watery vasoline. Try it!

We challenge you the next time your lips feel dry or chapped apply a generous amount of vasoline with cocoa butter and wait 5 minutes. It will be absorbed and your lips will be ready to pucker back up!

Other tips for dry chapped cracked lips are:
1. Dehydration: drink more water if your lips seem to be chapped often.

2. Weather: excessive sun exposure ☀️, Cold or dry weather

3. Nervous Habits such as Frequent Lip Licking or biting you lips

4. some Medical Conditions: Certain autoimmune disorders, vitamin deficiencies, and thyroid issues can contribute.

Remember to keep those lips moisturized! 😊

After you eat a meal or snack chew a piece of gum containing 100 % Xylitol. (Popular products on the market are Spyr or Pur Gum) !

What does it do: it removes the food debris from your teeth, stimulates saliva flow, and helps strengthen your enamel from the acid attach from your meal by balancing the pH of your saliva!

100 % xylitol sweetened gum has been shown to prevent cavities and promote dental health. It’s a sweet way to support your oral hygiene!

Remember Up to 5 Times a Day and only for 5 Minutes!

Thank you Benco Dental and Incisal Edge Magazine for making a dream from my childhood become a reality! As a middle schooler I wanted to model in NYC for a magazine. This dream that I had given up on came true with this incredible award. Honestly, I never thought after college I’d get the opportunity to model again. The photo shoot for this amazing award was an experience of a lifetime. I had so much fun every step of the way! Thank you to the stylists, fashion designers, make up artists, hair designers, and photography team. Thank you for hosting such a great experience and celebrating such amazing colleagues and dental professionals. I even learned tips from the 40 best in NYC!
