5 Best Dental Care Tips
- Brush twice a day. If you can’t brush twice a day, at least brush once.
- Don’t forget to floss. Interdental brushes and floss are important to remove bacteria between your teeth, where your toothbrush can’t reach.
- Go to the dentist regularly. At least once a year, and more often if your dentist recommends it.
- Drink lots of water. Not only does water cleanse the mouth and remove bacteria, it also reduces the risk of cavities.
- Eat a healthy diet and avoid sugary drinks. This is important for overall health, but a healthy diet is essential for a healthy mouth. The less sugar your eat, the fewer opportunities there will be for bacteria in your mouth to produce acid that wears down your enamel and causes cavities.
