Oral Hygiene Basics

To maintain good dental health, most people follow good oral hygiene. It helps to keep the teeth clean and germ-free and avoids dental diseases and emergencies. At Radiant Dental Care, our expert dentists suggest that patients follow good dental care at home to prevent oral health problems. 

Ways to Keep the Teeth Healthy

  • Brush the teeth twice a day regularly. It helps to remove the leftover food stuck in various parts of the mouth. Dentists advise patients to brush for two minutes and to follow the correct method while doing it. Brushing before bed helps to get rid of the plaque stuck on the teeth. 
  • Flossing the teeth is just as essential as brushing. It helps to remove the food stuck in between the teeth. The process also helps to stimulate the gums and reduces the buildup of plaque in the mouth. 
  • The dentists suggest the patients use toothpaste that contains fluoride. It helps to avoid dental conditions like tooth decay. The substance functions as a protective barrier for the teeth. Consuming tap water that contains fluoride will also reinforce good dental health.
  • Try to limit the consumption of sugary and acidic food and drinks. Hard candy and aerated drinks cause harm to dental health. It leads to erosion of the teeth’s enamel and may also lead to cavities in the teeth. 
  • Regular dental visits are crucial for good dental health. The dentist performs dental checkups to detect signs and symptoms of potential diseases and initiate immediate treatment. They also provide professional dental cleaning, which helps remove the buildup of plaque and tartar from the mouth. 
  • Drink lots of water every day. It helps to flush off the negative effects of sticky and acidic food. Drinking water also helps to avoid cavities and gum diseases. It keeps the mouth well hydrated and avoids the dryness that breeds bacteria.
  • Make crunchy fruits and vegetables part of your diet as it helps to scrape off the plaque from teeth. This is essential for the good overall health of the mouth.
