The habits we have created in adulthood can be tricky to
break. There may be food habits you are holding on to, or maybe you don’t like
flossing and so you just skip that part of the dental routine. Quitting
anything and changing that habit, while it takes dedication and a positive
outlook, can be done with these 3 tips from Dr. Judy Strutz and her team.
1.
Set a calendar invite in your phone to remind
you to brush and floss every day. Or if you want to quit eating snacks at 3:00
pm, which can lead to decay and other dental problems, create a calendar invite
that can remind you of why are choosing a healthy habit.
2.
Find a phrase or mantra that you can say to
yourself when you want to give up on your plan.
3.
Write down your plan. Research shows that people
who write down their goal and steps they are going to use to implement that
change can be a powerful motivator to change negative patterns of behavior.
You are worth having a fantastic and healthy smile. Change
your habits today. For more information, contact Dr. Judy Strutz and her team.
