#Didyouknow that women can only absorb up to 600mg Calcium at a time? But we need up to 1200mg a day!
Its ok if we take more at one time; we'll just excrete out the rest -- but it is not going where it needs to go.
Better to take 1 600mg tab twice a day for healthy bones and teeth.

Craving ice is usually an anemia thing. But, some women have constipation issues when taking iron supplements.
So, if needing iron and not wanting the red meat, take iron with Vitamin C on an empty stomach or simply immediately after a meal.
Still cannot tolerate the iron supplements? Make sure not to consume any calcium before the iron, as this can make the tummy queasy.

"Current smokers accrued 14% higher dental care costs than never-smokers over a five-year period. This difference in annual dental care costs was mainly attributable to the increased percentage of participants in the 'higher dental care cost' category among current smokers. There was no clear trend identified for the dose-dependent effects of smoking on dental care utilization and its costs. Past smokers incurred lower dental care costs compared with current smokers. Smoking may have played a key role in the increment of dental care utilization and its costs via deterioration in oral conditions."

Postponing a dental cleaning will only raise the risk of infection and can lead to more dental issues in the future.
Anyone who has seen me knows my favorite saying is, "a stitch in time saves nine." In other words, by receiving regular dental exams at least twice a year, we can help prevent any oral health issues before they spread to other teeth, the jaw, the ear, the sinus, the heart, the brain. An infection is an infection, no matter where it is in or on the body.

Carrots — which are crunchy, firm and full of water — help to scrub your teeth clean like a natural toothbrush.

Even if you can't see them yet, those tiny teeth are there—hiding just beneath the gums. Make sure to take care of them right from the start.
Wipe the gums twice a day with a soft, clean cloth—in the morning after the first feeding and right before bed. That helps wipe away bacteria and sugars that can cause cavities.
Once her first tooth comes in, start brushing her teeth twice a day with a smear (rice-grain sized) amount of toothpaste.
Take your baby to the dentist by her first birthday. It's the best way to spot signs of problems early. If you don't have a dentist, ask your pediatrician to check out your baby's mouth and help you find one.

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month. Cavities, also known as caries or tooth decay, are one of the most common chronic diseases of childhood, yet cavities are preventable. Children who have poor oral health often miss more school and receive lower grades than children who don’t. (source: CDC)

Children age 1-3 are most at risk for cavities.
Everyone, even babies, can get tooth decay. Some things put children are at more risk, such as living in poverty, being in an ethnic or racial minority group, or having special health care needs. There are other reasons a child could be high risk.
The child's mother or main caregiver had tooth decay in the past 12 months or does not have a regular source of dental care.
There are white spots on the child's teeth. These spots are a sign that the tooth is losing calcium and minerals that keep it strong.
There are tan, brown or black spots or you see holes (pits) on the teeth. This is a sign that the tooth is decaying.
See one or all of these signs? Contact us today to schedule an appointment with Dr. Wanda at: office@joyfuldentalcare.com

Why Regular Dental Visits Are Important
Visiting the dentist regularly has many benefits, such as:
Promoting Good Oral Health
During dental visits, oral health providers ask questions to learn about the pregnant woman’s and parents’ oral health practices. For example, they may ask if the pregnant woman or child drinks fluoridated tap water or snacks frequently or if parents give the child a bottle filled with something other than water at bedtime (See Where We Stand: Fruit Juice). This information can help oral health providers deliver care and provide education to make it less likely that the woman or child will have problems later.
Teaching Children to Value Good Oral Health
Early dental visits teach a child that oral health is important. A child who is taken for dental visits early in life is more likely to have a good attitude about oral health providers and dental visits. Pregnant women who get oral health care are also more likely to take their child to get care.
Finding Oral Health Problems Early
One goal of dental visits is finding problems early. Tooth decay can be stopped or managed if it is caught early. Treating problems early keeps oral diseases from getting worse and costs less than treatment would later. Treating disease early is also important because oral disease can be transmitted from mother to baby through saliva.

How much water do children need?
At around 6 months, babies can be introduced to water. They only need about 4-8 ounces per day until they are a year old because the rest of their liquids are coming from breastmilk or formula.
To stay well hydrated, children ages 1-3 years need approximately 4 cups of beverages per day, including water or milk. This increases for older kids to around 5 cups for 4-8 year olds, and 7-8 cups for older children.
It should be noted that these amounts vary by individual and may need to be adjusted depending on levels of activity and environmental conditions like heat and humidity.

All living things need water to survive. Along with milk, plain water is the best drink choice for kids. Why? It's super healthy with zero calories & no added sugar. It good for the body - keeps joints, bones and teeth healthy, helps the blood circulate, and can help kids maintain a healthy weight into adulthood. Being well hydrated improves mood, memory and attention in children . And it's economical – tap water is much less expensive than sports drinks, sodas and juice.

All sugars promote the growth of mouth bacteria that produce acid and cause tooth decay. Unrefined sugars such as honey, maple syrup, and molasses are just as damaging as refined white sugar in this respect. The worst offenders are the sugars in sticky foods that cling to teeth, such as dried fruit leathers and candies. Sodas and sweetened juice drinks leave the teeth awash in sugar. Cereals and other starchy foods, such as popcorn, leave a residue that bacteria rapidly convert to sugar. Drinking water is a safe, easy way to keep sticky sugars off teeth, especially after sugar is consumed!

The best way to protect your child's teeth is to teach him good dental habits. With the proper coaching he'll quickly adopt good oral hygiene as a part of his daily routine. However, while he may be an enthusiastic participant, he won't yet have the control or concentration to brush his teeth all by himself. You'll need to supervise and help him so that the brush removes all the plaque—the soft, sticky, bacteria- containing deposits that accumulate on the teeth, causing tooth decay. Also, keep an eye out for areas of brown or white spots which might be signs of early decay.

In honor of March being Women's History Month, I would like to celebrate and honor our first American female dentist, Dr. Lucy Beaman Hobbs Taylor, who earned her DDS degree in 1866.
In 1945 four dental schools still did not allow women to even apply to their dental schools.
In 1999 my class at NYUCD was the first one to graduate more females than male dentists, at 51%. The class after mine graduated 53% female dentists at NYU.

For those in the back, I HATE FRUIT JUICE.
High sugar content in juice contributes to increased calorie consumption and the risk of dental cavities.
In addition, the lack of protein and fiber in juice can predispose to inappropriate weight gain (too much or too little).

I HATE FRUT JUICE FOR MY PATIENTS AND LOVED ONES AND STAFF AND ALL HUMANS.
Fruit juice offers no nutritional benefits over whole fruit. Whole fruits also provide fiber and other nutrients. Infants should not be given fruit juice at bedtime (in my opinion: ever), nor as a treatment of dehydration or management of diarrhea.
Contact us today for an appointment with Dr. Wanda to make sure your family is not suffering from cavities from fruit juice!

In 1944, Dr. Sara Gdulin Krout became the first woman dentist in the U.S. Navy. A dual-DDS from her native Latvia and the University of Illinois College of Dentistry, Dr. Krout was prevented from enlisting directly as a female dentist due to the military’s restrictions. In order to serve, she joined the U.S. Navy’s Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Services (WAVES) and served as a lieutenant. She was on active duty at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station from 1944 to 1946 and continued in the Naval Reserve until her retirement in 1961.
