Keep Your Smile Bright
After you’ve achieved the gleaming smile you’ve always wanted, you’ll want to maintain it. Here are some tips:
1. Brush and floss regularly
One of the most critical secrets to naturally beautiful teeth is to maintain disciplined hygiene habits. Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste helps remove plaque, and flossing daily helps avoid cavities and gum disease. In addition to regular cleaning, using an antiseptic mouthwash can kill bacteria that cause bad breath and promote oral hygiene.
2. Watch what you eat
A healthy diet helps prevent and reduce the risk of developing gum diseases and cavities. Too much sugar and acidic food and drinks can harm the enamel and eventually cause tooth decay. Try to include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and dairy products in your meals to keep your gums and teeth healthy. It’s also a good idea to avoid common teeth-staining culprits like coffee or tobacco.
3. Stay hydrated
Water is essential for your overall health and dental hygiene. It helps wash away food particles and neutralises the acidic environment in your mouth. Also, drinking fluoridated water can help prevent tooth decay and promote tooth remineralisation.
4. Chew sugarless gum
Chewing gum stimulates saliva production, which helps wash away excess food particles and neutralise the acids produced by bacteria in your mouth. Choose sugarless chewing gum that contains xylitol, which can help reduce the risk of tooth decay.
5. Visit your dentist regularly
Regular visits to your dentist can help prevent and diagnose dental problems before they become severe. Your dentist can detect early signs of gum diseases, cavities, and other dental problems, and give you the right treatment to maintain healthy teeth.
