You’ll probably know most of these tips but perhaps you might find a new hint that could help give you a healthier mouth!
- After you’ve brushed your teeth, spit but don’t rinse – let the fluoride do its work!
- To ensure that smaller children are cleaning their teeth for the correct length of time, sing a ‘brush along’ song to them. Something catchy that lasts around two minutes. YouTube has some great ideas
- Try to eat sugary foods with a meal rather than as a snack. This will reduce the times your teeth come under attack.
- Your dentist should carry out a visual cancer check as part of each routine visit. Ask if not – it’s quick, easy and pain free.
- Start using an interdental brush to really get into the gaps between your teeth. You’ll be amazed at how much cleaner your mouth will feel!
