• Brush at least twice a day. Make sure you brush before you hit the bed. If you can manage brushing after all your meals, you will definitely boast of good dental health all your life.
• Wait for at least an hour after a meal before you pick up the toothbrush.
• Floss immediately after you brush. This helps clean your teeth thoroughly. Floss at least once a day.
• Clean you tongue using a scraper once a day. Do this immediately after you have brushed and flossed. Don’t be too hard on your tongue while cleaning it.
• Rinse your mouth after eating or drinking anything. Since brushing is not possible every time you pop something in your mouth, rinsing is a good option.
• Drink 8-10 glasses of water everyday. This will not only keep your mouth hydrated but also clean. A hydrated mouth prevents gum and dental diseases.
• Change your toothbrush every three months, even if it appears new. If it looks tattered sooner, change it right away.
• Don’t eat something sweet just before hitting the bed. Ending the day with a dessert may sound like a good idea but if you do indulge in one, make sure you follow it up with through brushing.

Take good care of your teeth and keep smiling!
