Summer is the perfect time to relax, explore, and enjoy family fun. But while you're planning those road trips and backyard cookouts, don’t forget about your health.
With that in mind, we bring you a summer survival guide, packed with smart tips and solutions to keep you happy and healthy all season long.
Grill Smart, Smile Bright
BBQ season is a blast—until you chip a tooth on a rib bone.
Survival Strategy:
- Stick to soft sides like grilled veggies or corn off the cob if you’ve had recent dental work.
- Don’t use your teeth to open bottles or snack bags (your teeth and dentist will thank you).
Solstice Solution:
Solstice offers dental savings plans with no waiting periods and no annual maximums. Whether it’s a routine cleaning or a dental emergency, you’ll get locked-in discounts every time you visit an in-network provider. It’s a smart, affordable alternative to traditional dental insurance.
Sparklers Are Fun—But Safe Eyes Are Better
Summer nights are magical, but eye safety is still a must.
Survival Strategy:
- Keep a safe distance and wear protective eyewear if you're lighting sparklers or using outdoor tools.
- Watch from afar if you wear contacts or have sensitive eyes.
Solstice Solution:
Our vision plans for individuals and families offer discounts on eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses. With access to top providers and affordable vision coverage, you can enjoy the fireworks without worrying about your eye health.
Sun, Fun & Sunglasses
UV rays don’t take a holiday.
Survival Strategy:
- Wear sunglasses with UV protection to shield your eyes during outdoor festivities.
- Bonus: You’ll look stylish while doing it.
