Maintaining oral health is something that most people don’t think about until they have an issue with it. If you are looking for some simple ways to maintain your oral health, this article will help! We’ll discuss 6 of the most important things that you can do to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

-Floss every day: flossing isn’t just good for taking care of food particles in between our teeth, but also prevents gum disease and bad breath too! Floss at least once a day; if possible, try to break up into two sessions (morning and night). Make sure you choose a type of flosser or string dental tape that works best for you.

-Brush twice a day: brushing not only helps to get rid of the food particles that our toothbrush can’t pick up, but also makes sure we don’t have any leftover plaque from yesterday! Make it part of your morning and night routines to brush after breakfast and before bed.

-Maintain your oral care tools: you should be replacing your toothbrush every three months (or once a season), using mouthwash regularly, and flossing at least once a day.

-Eat a well-balanced diet: the food we eat can affect our oral health, so make sure that you always include fruits, vegetables , whole grains, lean proteins (like fish), dairy products like milk or cheese. Avoid sugary snacks, which lead to tooth decay, as much as possible.

-Visit your dentist regularly: last but not least; this is probably one of the most important things that anyone can do for their oral health! You should visit your dentist at least once every six months for an exam and cleaning. During these visits they will check on any issues you might have developed over time, spot any potential problems if there are any, and make sure you are brushing, flossing, and maintaining your oral care tools properly.

-Make lifestyle changes: changing some of our habits can be hard; however making small lifestyle changes (like walking or biking instead of driving) will help us to maintain the health of our body as well!
