Even though we’re only two weeks into the new year, many people will have already given up on some of their New Year’s resolutions.

You might have really good intentions to make changes that will improve your health, but when those changes are just too drastic to make all at once, it’s easy to feel discouraged almost from the start.

That’s why it’s better to set smaller, achievable goals to create momentum and help you make positive changes that last.

Daily flossing is the perfect place to start! Check out this American Dental Association video to learn about the proper technique, and then make the decision today to commit to this important daily practice to prevent gum disease and tooth loss.

With a good oral hygiene regimen and routine dental checkups, your year will be a great one for your smile!
