General At-Home Care Tips
It is important to maintain good oral health at home in order to have a healthy smile and teeth. Here are some tips to help you keep your teeth and gums in good condition:
- Brush your teeth twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste for at least two minutes in the morning and at night.
- Floss daily to remove plaque and food particles between your teeth that your toothbrush may not reach.
- Use mouthwash, such as an antimicrobial or fluoride mouthwash, to reduce plaque, prevent cavities, and keep your breath fresh.
- Eat a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and calcium-rich foods while limiting sugary snacks and drinks.
- Schedule regular dental checkups for professional cleanings and checkups to prevent dental issues before they become serious.
