Family Smiles of the Hudson Valley

Bet you didn't know this Fun Fact (we didn't!) That "wave" of toothpaste you always see in photos of toothbrushes - it's called a Nurdle! #funfact #dentalfunfact #hudsonvalleydentist #dentistsofinstagram #healthyteeth #wappingers

Special Holiday Hours - if you need to visit us in December or January, please schedule your appointment soon! Happy Holidays from Family Smiles! #happyholidays #holidayhours #hudsonvalleydentist #dentistsofinstagram #healthyteeth #wappingers #poughkeepsie

Usually we're reminding everyone to brush and floss their teeth - but this month is all about clean hands. (In addition to clean teeth, obviously!) Remember to use soap & warm water and scrub for at least 20 seconds - good hand hygiene helps everyone stay healthy! #handhygiene #hudsonvalleydentist #healthyteeth #wappingers

This is a "holiday" that many of us celebrate all year, but today is National Cookie Day! It's a good reminder to enjoy the sweet things in life (as long as we brush and floss afterwards!) #nationalcookieday #instacookies #hudsonvalleydentist #healthyteeth #wappingers

Monday was bittersweet for our Wappingers team as we celebrated Karen's retirement. She's been our dental assistant for 11 years and, while we will miss her, we wish her all the best!

Is it time for a new toothbrush?

Get out your brushes and floss - It's National Flossing Day! While you're indulging in Thanksgiving leftovers, don't forget to take care of your teeth!

The Family Smiles team would like to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow, that's a LOT of toothpaste (and a lot of teeth brushing - yay!)
