Meet Our Christmas Elf: Cuspid!

cuspidnorthspringdentalWere you under the impression as you quickly popped a piece of chocolate into your mouth, tip toed into bed without brushing your teeth, or skipped flossing for the day that nobody was watching your not-so-wonderful oral health habits? Think again! Our Christmas Elf, Cuspid, is on the move, keeping tabs on all of our good (and bad) patients. To make sure you end up on Santa’s “nice” list this year, you might want to keep Cuspid in mind as you head through the holiday season! Don’t worry, if you’ve made a mistake or two, we can help you get back into Cuspid’s good graces!

What Will Cuspid Tell Santa Claus About You?

If you’ve never met a Christmas Elf before, allow us to provide you with a quick introduction. Cuspid’s job as an elf is more like a scout for Santa, which includes keeping a close watch on whether you’re being naughty or nice to your oral health. You see, Cuspid is a little bit special because she is a dental elf. She watches over your brushing, your flossing, the foods you eat, and more to make sure you’re keeping your smile nice and clean (all of which she reports back to Santa, of course).

Switch From The Naughty List To The Nice List

Luckily, Cuspid brings daily oral health reports to Santa! As a result, the moment you start making good choices for yourself is the day your name makes its appearance on the “nice” list (so you won’t end up with a lump of coal in your stocking this year)! Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your report is a stellar one:

  • It’s okay to eat candy but be sure to rinse and brush afterwards
  • Don’t forget to brush your teeth two times every day (and to time your sessions, which should last two minutes each)
  • Remember to floss every single day
