Prepare Yourself to Celebrate February Dental Holidays

February is smiling big with lots of dental-themed holidays worth celebrating. You may know about Children's Dental Health Month, but did you realize it's also Gum Disease Awareness Month? And if you've ever had a toothache, you'll want to mark National Toothache Day on your calendar. We must remember the Tooth Fairy's special day too!

Let’s learn when these February dental holidays happen and explore some fun ways your family can celebrate good dental habits all month.

February Is Children's Dental Health Month

February is Children's Dental Health Month - the perfect opportunity to teach your kids how to take care of their teeth and gums properly! Establishing good oral hygiene habits at a young age ensures a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Parents should schedule a dentist appointment for their child's first checkup after the baby's teeth start coming in.They can also teach parents how to care for their children’s teeth at home. Teach your child to brush twice daily for two minutes with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. Help them brush until they turn 8 to ensure they reach all their teeth.

Here are some pieces of advice to consider:

  • Avoid sugary foods and drinks that can lead to cavities. Sticky foods like raisins can also get stuck between teeth.
  • Offer nutritious snacks like cheese, yogurt, and veggies for healthy teeth.
  • Never take children to bed with a bottle filled with milk, juice, soda, or other sugary liquids.

Healthy habits will ensure your child has sparkling smiles they can show off for years. Brush up on how to teach your child proper oral care during Children's Dental Health Month!

Gum Disease Awareness Month

February is also Gum Disease Awareness Month, making it the perfect time to spread the word about this common yet preventable oral health issue. If you are a dentist, raise awareness for Gum Disease. In your dental office waiting room, hand out educational materials about the causes, symptoms, and treatment of gum disease and share tips for good oral hygiene. Run an in-office promotion offering discounted dental cleanings and gum disease screenings. Remove financial barriers that keep patients from getting their gums checked.

Write an article for your local newspaper or community blog, and add social media posts emphasizing that although common, gum disease does not have to be inevitable. Include self-care steps readers can start today to improve their gum health. Stores should provide free sample-size oral hygiene products to reinforce positive habits. Fun items like mini toothbrushes and floss picks make learning engaging.

Gum Disease Awareness Month reminds us to be vigilant against preventable gum disease. Through education and proactive care, we can help create a future where healthy smiles thrive free of inflamed gums. This February, resolve to make that dream a reality.

National Tooth Fairy Day and National Toothache Day

National Tooth Fairy Day on February 28 celebrates the mythical fairy who exchanges teeth that fall out for coins and dollars. A fairy exchanges teeth that fall out for coins and dollars. It's a fun holiday to inspire kids to care for their teeth.

Kids write a note or draw for the tooth fairy when they lose a tooth. Place it under their pillow with the tooth at night. They start reading tooth fairy themed books together and using imagination to envision her magical world. Parents share their own childhood stories about losing teeth. Then their parents leave a surprise treat or dollar from the tooth fairy under their pillow to discover in the morning. They are teaching them the importance of dental hygiene, like brushing twice daily and flossing daily. The tooth fairy rewards good oral care!

  • Scheduling dental checkups every 6 months and addressing any issues early before serious problems develop.
