I am nuts for a beautiful smile!
It is Xmas time, and a lot of fantastic food is around which attracts you sens.However, there are some kinds of food you have to avoid when you have Braces.Foods to completely avoid with braces include:nutspopcornicechewing gumhard candychewy candypizza crustbagels and other hard rollscrunchy vegetables and fruitshard crackerspretzelschipsLimit the consumption of sugary foods and drinks while having braces. When sugar mixes with saliva, it creates a sticky film (plaque) that coats the teeth.Brushing can remove plaque, but that becomes harder to do with braces. And if you're unable to remove this sticky film, there's a risk of tooth decay.Be mindful that braces are sensitive to damage, so you'll need to avoid certain foods for as long as you have braces.These include sticky and hard foods that can damage the wires or bands, or cause a bracket to separate from a tooth.What can we do to make you smile?Call Candice and make an appointment today 09 448 1128.....#nuts #culinaria #food #vegan #powerfoods #sweeds #desert #fruits #fizzy #smile #xmas #bachmannsmile #nuts #bachmannorthodontics #foodie #nut #nutrition #culinarychefsportal #cooking #eating #healthylifestyle #healthyfoods
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
