3Vital Tips to Maintain Healthy Teeth
4Healthy dietWhat you eat plays a major role in
your oral health. If the food that you eat has
high sugary or acidic content, then it will
affect your teeth adversely. By eating
teeth-friendly foods you can not only protect the
enamel of your teeth but also prevent bacteria
build-up in your mouth.Limit beverages such as
tea, coffee red wine, etc.
5Change Tooth Brush FrequentlyIt is recommended
to change the tooth brush at least once in two or
three months. Otherwise, it is like you are
transferring bacteria to your mouth. Also,
experts say that the best way to brush is placing
the brush at a 45 degree angle against the gums
and then gently moving in a circular motion.
6Do Not Avoid Tongue Cleaning Brushing alone is
not enough to maintain healthy mouth. Tongue
cleaning should be followed immediately after
brushing. Clean your tongue with a tongue
scrapper. Tongue cleaning will freshen your
breath.
7Use Alcohol-Free MouthMake sure that the mouth
wash you use has no alcohol content. If not, it
will dry up the tissues in your mouth, thus
paving way for bacteria. Studies have also
revealed that using mouth washes with alcohol
content can lead to oral cancer.
8See Your Dentist RegularlyTo maintain healthy
mouth, schedule an appointment with your dentist
at least once in six months. This will help to
prevent major oral problems.
