Finally summertime in the UK has arrived, which usually means three things, school holidays, blockbuster movies at the cinema and rain!
Well two out of three ain’t bad as this year it seems to be wall to wall sunshine and we’re set to have one of the driest summers on record, plus un-seasonally high temperatures well into the mid 30’s!
A hot summer can mean a number of things when it comes to dental health. We’re more likely to reach for the cold drinks or an ice cream to cool us down and because we’re sweating more which in turn makes us thirsty we may be reaching for a cold drink a lot more often.
Escaping the heat to sit in an air conditioned cinema can be a good idea. There are some great releases this Summer for the kids (and adults too!) I’m sure many of us will be off to the cinema at some point over the next 6 weeks.
The cinema may get out us out of the heat for a couple of hours but it doesn’t keep us out of temptation. Once the movie’s decided, you’re faced with the decision of what confectionary to buy and everything seems to come in one size, LARGE!
Here’s few tips to minimise any problems with your dental health over the holidays and enjoy the hot weather.Keep up with brushing twice a day and flossing. Enjoy the warm weather and make sure you’re drinking plenty of fluids.
If you’re worried about your dental health then why not book an appointment to see us.
Mama Mia, Here We Go Again! Is showing nation-wide, we’ve seen it, it’s great and yes we had some popcorn! And yes other movies are available to see!
