    How To Nail Your Oral Hygiene Routine Like a Pro

    Many people pay extra attention to skincare, facial care, and even hair care but often neglect oral care, leaving it to simply brushing once daily to fulfill all righteousness.

    It is true sticking to an oral hygiene routine can be challenging. However, these tips are bound to help. They contain what you need to know about oral hygiene, and once you know, the task is halfway done. 

    What the Perfect Oral Hygiene Routine Looks Like 

    It starts with brushing twice daily. While that alone does a great job of keeping your mouth clean, dentists agree that flossing is just as important. “Flossing removes food particles, debris, and plaque from between teeth and along the gum line in areas your toothbrush cannot,” one expert says.

    Some things to do daily to maintain oral hygiene and promote optimal oral health include flossing at least once daily with manual floss and following up with a water flosser for a deeper clean. Brush twice daily—once in the morning and again at night—for two minutes with toothpaste made with fluoride or hydroxyapatite.

    Scrape your tongue at least once daily to get rid of particles and germs on the tongue. Furthermore, rinse with a mouthwash at least once a day. Repeating the above steps twice daily may seem daunting, even time-consuming, but experts believe it is all you need to maintain optimal oral hygiene.

    What Are the Three Major Dental Problems?

    The three major oral hygiene issues include tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth sensitivity. Tooth decay is caused by the breakdown of tooth enamel due to acids produced by bacteria. Also known as cavities or dental caries, it is one of the most common dental problems worldwide. 

    Another major dental problem is gum disease or periodontal disease. It is an infection of the tissues that secure the teeth. The problem is often caused by poor brushing and flossing habits that allow plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—to build up on the teeth and harden.

    The third common dental issue is tooth sensitivity. This one involves discomfort or pain in teeth when encountering certain substances and temperatures. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including worn tooth enamel, exposed tooth roots, etc. 

    How Do I Know if My Oral Hygiene Is Bad?

    There are different ways to tell if your oral hygiene is good or bad. Fortunately, most of them are only warnings, meaning they herald even worse symptoms or outcomes.

    A good example is bleeding gums, which could be a sign of gingivitis or other gum-related issues. Another example is chronic bad breath, which implies a buildup of bacteria in the mouth. Other signs of poor oral hygiene include tooth decay, mouth sores, loose teeth, swollen gums, sensitivity, and receding gum.

    How Do You Spread Oral Hygiene Awareness?

    There are various effective methods to spread oral hygiene awareness in today’s society. Some of them include organizing workshops and seminars in schools, community centers, and workplaces to educate people about the importance of oral hygiene.

    Taking advantage of platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to share informative content about oral hygiene can also spread oral hygiene awareness. Furthermore, joining hands with local dentists to offer free or discounted dental check-ups and cleanings to encourage regular dental visits sensitizes many on oral hygiene.

    Getting involved with or organizing events on World Oral Health Day and National Dental Hygiene Month also raises awareness.

    What Is the Best Drink for Your Teeth?

    The best drink for your teeth is water. It helps cleanse the teeth by washing away food particles and mitigates the effects of acidic drinks on the teeth. Of course, water is not the only drink that helps your teeth. Other drinks that are good for the teeth include milk, coconut water, light beer, green tea, root beer, and wine.
