February is National Children’s Dental Health Month with Drew Beaty D.D.S.
February 11th, 2015
This February we are recognizing the importance of our children’s dental health by promoting National Children’s Dental Health Month. In honor of National Children’s Dental Health Month, us at Drew Beaty D.D.S. thought it would be helpful to provide with you five necessary tips in ensuring good oral hygiene practice for the kiddos!
Twice Daily Brushing: It only takes 2 minutes of brushing in a small and gentle circular motion to make sure the kids are brushing properly. Making sure not to miss the hard-to-reach areas in the back of the mouth are also very important!
Regular Flossing: Floss at least once daily to make sure the missed surfaces from brushing get clean too! Flossing in a “C-Shape” around each tooth is ideal when wanting to remove as much plaque as possible.
Consistent and Regular Dental Visits: Visiting your Federal Way General Dentist, Drew Beaty D.D.S. is easy! Come once every six months for your routine dental hygiene visit to help assure good dental health.
Avoiding Sugary Drinks: Sugary drinks such as soda or energy drinks promote unnecessary acid in the mouth which assists in damaging our teeth. If you find yourself wanting an occasional soda, make sure to brush your teeth immediately afterwards.
Healthy Snack Options: Fruits, veggies and cheese are all great snacking options when it comes to choosing dental-friendly foods. They help scrub away plaque. Avoid the sticky, chewy and sugary snack options.
Not only is the importance of our kids’ oral health important for their mouth, but also for their overall wellbeing! If you find yourself asking questions about how to make healthy dental decisions for your kids, please do not hesitate to call us at Drew Beaty D.D.S. Our direct phone number is (253) 839-6544.

Dental Insurance Benefits, Use It or Lose It
December 8th, 2014
December is typically the busiest month for dentistry. Everyone is making their way into the office for their last yearly checkup appointments and cleanings as well as trying to use up any remaining benefit on their insurance for their treatment plans. That’s right, come January 1st, any unused dental benefit will simply go away. There is rarely any rollover option and once it is gone, it is gone for good. At Federal Way Dentist, Dr. Drew Beaty’s office, we always suggest avoiding long delays to begin diagnosed treatment plans as the issues can get worse; but also, people forget about them. Until the last minute that is. Though we do have several spots still available to see our patients this month, we would suggest getting in as soon as possible if you have benefits waiting to be used.
Give us a call today to schedule any necessary appointments, before the holidays arrive!
