Tips For Keeping Your Teeth Pearly White

Depending on your predisposition to certain oral health conditions, some individuals can go a few months or more between dentist visits and cleanings. However, the key to a healthy smile and mouth is taking proper care in-between those visits!

Preventative dentistry is the best way to keep your teeth healthy and smile bright.

Here are some of the best tips to help minimize any problems:

Toothbrush

It is quite easy to keep your toothbrush for a lot longer than you’re supposed to. You should replace it every 3 months or so. Also, when was the last time that you sterilized it? The last toothbrush tip is making sure you get the right one for your gums and teeth, too stiff bristles can cause damage and too soft won’t clean your teeth properly.

Water

Not only is drinking plenty of water good for your body and health but it also helps keep your mouth clean. Drinking water constantly rinses any bacteria and food and keeps your teeth and gums moist to help prevent damage and bad breath.

Floss

You’ve probably heard this a million times but do you actually do it on a regular basis? Your dentist knows if you floss or not. Keeping your gums healthy is a very important aspect of oral health and flossing is the best way to do that.
