The day after Thanksgiving is something some people really look forward to every year. For others, it’s just another day.

Either way, National Flossing Day is a good time to remind you of the importance of taking care of your gums. Did you know that gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in the United States? While we have ways to replace lost teeth at Total Dental Care, we would prefer to help you keep them as long as possible.

Being aware of the symptoms of periodontal problems can make it easier for you to seek treatment if you spot them. If you haven’t scheduled a checkup in the past six months, today is the day to plan a visit to Total Dental Care in Columbia, SC. Call 803-272-4162 or fill out our online form today!
