Good habits are rare. And when it comes to dental care, some of us are reluctant about adopting habits or getting into a routine. We would rather wail in pain as toothache strikes or cavities become a permanent fixture on our teeth than get into a dental care routine. Try adopting a good dental habit today, and adopt a new one everyday for the next three days. You’ll be surprised at the results you’ll see in a month. Don’t you want to sport a bright smile, consistently? If your answer is ‘yes’, read on.

• Brush after every meal. Why? This helps your mouth clean and keep bacteria at bay. You won’t have stains on your teeth, bad breath, other dental and gum problems if you adopt this habit.

• Floss your teeth immediately after you have brushed. This will help keep the mouth clean. You need to floss only once a day. Flossing helps you reach the farthest corners of your teeth. I would say you floss just after you have brushed your teeth before hitting the bed.
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Water not only keeps your mouth clean but also keeps it hydrated. Also, water will help your overall health, making your smile glow more.
• Eat fruits instead of drinking the juices. If you are hungry, go for a glass of water, not for a glass of juice. And if you are hungry, just eat a fruit. Fruit juices can wash away the enamel of your teeth. It is important you avoid them. And if you ever have to drink a juice, use a straw.

Happy smiling!
