Good oral health is more than just a beautiful smile—it’s essential to your overall well-being. Poor dental hygiene can lead to cavities, gum disease, and even impact heart health. The good news? Maintaining healthy teeth and gums is easier than you think.
Here are five daily habits that can help protect your dental health:
1. Brush Twice a Day, the Right Way
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Brush for at least two minutes in circular motions, and don’t forget your tongue!
2. Floss Daily
Flossing removes plaque and food particles between teeth where brushes can't reach—helping to prevent gum disease and bad breath.
3. Cut Back on Sugar
Sugary snacks and drinks feed the bacteria that cause tooth decay. Limit sugar intake and rinse your mouth after consuming sweets.
4. Visit Your Dentist Regularly
Routine dental check-ups (every 6 months) catch issues early and keep your mouth clean with professional care.
5. Don’t Ignore Gum Health
Swollen, red, or bleeding gums may be signs of gingivitis or more serious periodontal disease. Early treatment is key to avoiding tooth loss.
