## Resource

Dentist appointments aren’t just about showing up—what you do before can seriously impact your care. Overbrushing or flossing too hard can inflame gums and hide issues. Don’t withhold meds, as some cause gum overgrowth or mask pain. Skip caffeine and acidic foods to protect enamel and avoid dry, sensitive gums. No alcohol the night before—it thins blood, dehydrates you, and disrupts oral bacteria. If you’re getting cosmetic work, steer clear of stains like coffee or red wine to ensure accurate results. Give your dentist the clearest picture possible. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
