Having healthy teeth and gums is an important part of being a healthy person in general. In this article, we introduce 4 quick and easy methods to drastically improve your dental hygiene. Floss regularly We all know that flossing is a vital part of any dental regime, but how many of us actually do it daily? Flossing will remove hidden plaque from between your teeth that your toothbrush cannot reach and will vastly improve general gum health. So take the floss out of the closet and get to work! Stop drinking soda Drinking sodas such as coke and ginger ale is bad for your teeth. If you are serious about improving your dental hygiene then the sodas have to be parted with. They are acidic and their high sugar content is a major cause of tooth decay. For those of you that are truly addicted to soda, at a minimum, try drinking a full glass of water immediately after the soda. This will dilute the acidic effect that soda has on your teeth, thereby reducing (but not eliminating) any damage. Use an effective mouthwash Mouthwash isn’t just for bad breath. Using an effective mouthwash can provide a considerable boost to your dental regime and strengthen your teeth and gums. However, not all mouthwash products are created equal. Consult your dentist for a recommendation on which mouthwash to use. Buy an electric toothbrush Electric toothbrushes are easier to use and can reach difficult areas and remove plaque more effectively than a regular toothbrush. Many electric toothbrushes come with a time setting of 2 minutes, which makes sure that you are brushing for sufficient and recommended amount of time each time you brush your teeth!
