Here are 5 tips for your healthier smile that you can include in your daily habits:

• Eat Healthily 

A healthy diet is good for both oral health as well as the whole body. Vegetables and fruits are high in nutrients and help in preventing gum disease and tooth decay. On the other hand, sugary candies and salty chips that stay on the teeth can cause dental health issues if they are not removed properly. So maintain a healthy diet and keep hydrated to produce enough saliva.

• Brush Your Teeth Properly 

You need to brush your teeth twice a day to keep your oral health perfect. Brushing your teeth will clean the leftover food from your mouth. Brushing is as important as flossing your teeth. Don't forget to clean your tongue as well to keep the bacteria away.

• Floss Your Teeth

Flossing is an essential part to keep oral health perfect. Flossing helps to clean plaque and tartar between your teeth. If they remain in the mouth, it may cause tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. Floss at least once a day, particularly at night after having dinner.

• Use Fluoride

Fluoride has many benefits including strengthening your tooth enamel, preventing tooth decay, and making teeth more resistant to acid and bacteria. Use toothpaste and mouthwash with fluoride every day. Make sure that your products are approved by the American Dental Association.
