Give the Gift of Healthy Teeth This Holiday Season



What can you give this holiday season to the person who has everything? There are a number of ways you can give to give the gift of healthier, whiter teeth that would make anybody smile this year. The best part is the fact you are giving them something they will truly enjoy and will contribute to their overall good health in the coming year. What gift could be better?

Teeth Whitening

A very popular gift for the last couple of years has been a gift certificate for an in office teeth whitening. This includes custom trays, bleaching, and everything else required to give teeth that longed after white sparkle.

Another more inexpensive option would be the popular teeth whitening strips. While some varieties of these can be bought at discount stores, the type our office provides has a higher bleach strength. The stronger the bleach, the whiter the teeth! These strips are relatively inexpensive and provide teeth whitening at a time convenient for the gift recipient, and in the privacy of their own home. These are under $100 and work very well.

Electronic Dental Appliances


The last several years have seen a rise in the sales of electric toothbrush and the water pick. The reason is quite simple: they help you provide a cleaner, healthier mouth with less effort. They make a great gift because they will help simplify the life of the recipient and make them healthier at the same time.

Our office would be happy to give suggestions on brands and types of any dental appliance you may be considering. Give us a call and we will help you buy the perfect electronic dental gift.

The Gift of Health

A gift certificate for a new patient exam is a great way to encourage someone in your life who may not put the priority on their dental health they should. This certificate will give them a full dental workup and allow us to gently encourage your loved one to take better care of their teeth. It will also allow us to show them how their dental health can improve their overall health. Nudge a loved one in the right direction for great dental health and good overall health.

With ideas like these, gift giving and good health just got much easier! We would love to chat with you about what we think would be the best gift to give your loved one this holiday season to improve their dental health, and as a result, their overall health.
