04/20/2017 While forgetting your toothbrush might
not sound like much of a travel disaster, there’s something about
showing up to your destination without the things you need for your oral health
that can cause some serious frustration. Perhaps getting a replacement
for whatever you left behind isn’t easy. Maybe you check into your hotel
very late. Maybe now your usual nightly treatment will be impossible
for two weeks! You get the idea. Avoid such issues with some simple
suggestions.
Create A Checklist (Check It Twice)Keep
your oral health habits exactly as they are by starting off with a
checklist. Before you start shopping or prepping or packing, write out
the things you need for your smile care. Remember that everything you do
at home you will want to continue doing while you travel. Toothbrush?
Dental Floss? Toothpaste? Sleep apnea appliance? Partial denture? Write
them all down and check them off as you pack.
Shop And Pack EarlyDon’t
wait until fifteen minutes before you leave for the airport to shop and
pack. Start early, so you have time to tie up loose ends without a
panic. Discovering your partial is damaged, for example, is much easier
to deal with two weeks in advance of your trip than it is moments
before.
See Us Before You LeaveIt’s
always a good idea to schedule an oral health visit with us if you
anticipate some serious travel. We can address any decay or other
issues, so you can enjoy vacation without a sudden toothache or other
unexpected trauma.
