Oral health

If food lingers between your teeth where a toothbrush doesnt reach, it will ferment and rot! This causes severe bad breath!!

U cant really clean Ur entire mouth with a toothbrush. Using an irrigator or water pick will clean everything out, around & under Ur gums & btn Ur teeth

Proper brushing takes at least two minutes ie 120 seconds! Most adults do not come close to brushing that long making dental health care inefficient

To properly brush Ur teeth, use short, gentle strokes, paying extra attention to the gum line, hard to reach back teeth, areas around fillings & crowns

Tilt the brush at a 45 percent angel against the gum line and sweep or roll the brush away from the gum line, brushing the tongue to remove bacteria

Gently brush the outside and chewing surface of each tooth, using short back and forth strokes to remove food thats stuck on the enamel

Most dental professionals agree that a soft bristled brush and Small headed brushes are best for removing plaque and debris from your teeth

Clean the inner surfaces of your upper teeth, then your lower teeth, the chewing surfaces, for fresher breath, make sure to brush your tongue

You should replace your toothbrush when it begins to show wear or every three months which ever comes first.

It is also very important to change toothbrushes after you have had a cold or Flu, since the bristles can collect germs that can lead to re-infection.

Some people still prefer whitening their teeth using home remedies like baking soda, sticks, and toothbrush to gently scrub away stains on their teeth.

Some foods such as Apples, Pears and Carrots trigger lots of saliva, which help to scrub away stains on the teeth. Chewing sugarless gum can also work

Bad breath often strikes when pple don't properly take care of their oral health. Decaying food particles & bacteria in the mouth usually cause the odor

That is why brushing and flossing your teeth is so important, but dont forget to gently brush your tongue to get rid of even more bacteria

Saliva is the best weapon against bad breath. That's why dry mouth, often caused by uncertain medications or medical conditions leads to odor problems.

Saliva helps a lot by washing away food particles and bacteria in the mouth, especially on the tongue. Saliva helps to eliminate bad odor too!!

If u are wondering why ur breath stinks in the morning, its coz saliva production slows down while u sleep, allowing particles &odor 2 linger longer

Thats where sugarless chewing gum comes in handy, as chewing it will stimulate saliva production. The more saliva U have in Ur mouth the fewer bacteria

The older you get the more likely you are to get dehydrated. You might not even notice you are thirsty. Drinking water has a lot of health benefits

Make drinking water a habit, because water will help keep the bacteria in your mouth to a minimum bse it increases water flow and prevents bad breath
