As you’ve likely noticed, it’s now the month of February. The odds are good that you’ll celebrate your sweetheart in a few days. That said, maybe you don’t want to get them something that would harm their pearly whites. Well, you’re in luck – your Portage dental practice has some smile-friendly present ideas. Our team will gladly help and share them with you! To that end, here are four great dentist-approved gifts for Valentine’s Day.
Some Dark Chocolate
At first glance, you might think any chocolate is bad for teeth. Won’t it lead to tooth decay or cavities? Still, dark chocolate is an exception that makes a great Valentine’s gift.
The truth is that dark chocolate has less sugar than other kinds. An average bar of it only contains about 10-12 grams. Meanwhile, a same-sized milk chocolate bar would have 25 grams of sugar. That means the darker stuff isn’t as bad for oral health. Your loved one can enjoy it while keeping their grin safe.
A Spa Treatment or Massage
Not every Valentine’s present has to be a “sweet treat.” Consider giving your heartthrob something that helps their body. For instance, a paid-for spa or massage treatment would do nicely.
The upsides to the spa option are pretty obvious. For starters, it would avoid any Valentine’s oral issues. Relaxed muscles won’t harm your partner’s smile. Plus, this stress-reducing session would benefit your loved one’s physical and emotional well-being.
Beautiful Plants or Flowers
Rather than dessert, you could make offer “eye-candy” to your sweetie instead. Pretty flowers and plants are great examples.
Gifts of flowers are a Valentine’s Day tradition for good reasons. Their beauty reflects how you feel about your Valentine. Roses, daisies, and other such plants show what you see in the other. At the same time, they won’t affect your partner’s gorgeous grin.
A Bright & Shiny Smile
If you value your sweetheart’s smile so much, you could always enhance it. Try giving them a paid-for teeth whitening treatment with their dentist.
Your bae will likely appreciate the present. Studies show that roughly 80% of Americans wish they had whiter teeth. Therefore, a whitening gift could help them be more confident. All it’d take is their dentist’s method and products to help their smile shine. From there, your day of romance will be as bright as your partner’s teeth.
These are only a few dentist-approved gifts for Valentine’s Day. If you’d like other suggestions, talk to your local dental care provider!
