Now that December has arrived, we are in the throes of planning for the holidays. Along with the added stress the holidays bring, we are also dealing with the effects of the year we have had.

Before the liquid courage starts flowing this holiday season, we want you to be aware of how alcohol consumption can affect your oral health.
