September is a month of transition, and it's not just the weather that's changing. Many families have kids going back to school, and a change in their routine can be more demanding on you. Added stress may have you looking for ways to save time, but try to take a moment to relax and focus on yourself.

Studies have shown that stress and oral health are closely related, but small lifestyle changes are easy to implement. A healthy breakfast boosts performance by improving your concentration and overall health. Take some time to brush and floss before setting out on your day, and the results will assist you in maintaining a happy and healthy smile.
