From entertaining family and friends to traveling to visit loved ones to cooking enough food to feed an army, this is the most hectic time of year for many people. With the busyness of the holidays, it can be easy to forget to buy stocking stuffers. If you need some ideas on stocking stuffers to gift the people you care about, check out these five tooth-approved options.
Candy canes, butterscotch, and other classic holiday candies may be tasty, but they can really do a number on your oral health. Rather than filling your family’s stockings with these cavity-causing sweets, replace them with tooth-healthy treats, including:
If your loved ones can’t go a day without their morning iced coffee, consider drinking it through a reusable straw. They’re better for the environment than single-use straws and can prevent dental staining from coffee, tea, cola, and other dark or highly pigmented beverages.
There are tons of fun toothpaste flavors, including bacon, licorice, citrus, cinnamon, ginger, cupcake, pickle, strawberry, watermelon, bubblegum, chocolate, coffee, and many others. These are an excellent way to fill up Christmas stockings while also making maintaining good oral health more enjoyable.
Lip balm is a small, portable, and inexpensive stocking stuffer. It can also help prevent winter mouth issues by keeping your lips from becoming dry and cracked.
If it’s been three or four months or you’re loved one just got over an illness, it’s time to replace their toothbrush. For kids, consider putting a toothbrush that features their favorite characters into their stockings. If they’re ready, you can even upgrade them to an electric toothbrush, which will be more effective at removing plaque from their pearly whites.
With a quick trip to your local grocery or drug store, you can stock up on tooth-approved treats and gifts to stuff stockings with. By the end of the holiday season, your loved ones will be sporting healthy, happy smiles!
