Good oral hygiene includes brushing your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily, and using an antibacterial mouthwash. Additionally, it's important to replace your toothbrush every three to four months and visit your dentist for regular check-ups and professional cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Preventing cavities and gum disease starts with good oral hygiene habits, including brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily, and limiting sugary snacks and drinks. Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings also help remove plaque and tartar that contribute to these issues.
Flossing should be done once a day to remove plaque and food particles between teeth that a toothbrush can’t reach. Regular flossing helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath by keeping these hard-to-reach areas clean and healthy.
Dental X-rays are a crucial part of a comprehensive oral examination. They help your dentist detect issues not visible during a routine exam, such as cavities between teeth, impacted teeth, and bone infections. X-rays are typically recommended annually, but the frequency may vary depending on your dental health.
Invisalign is a popular choice for straightening teeth because it offers a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional metal braces. Invisalign aligners are clear, removable, and easy to maintain, making them a great option for both teens and adults looking to improve their smile without the visibility of metal braces.
