Here are some tips
for a healthy mouth,teeth & gums.
1: Clean your teeth well
twice a day, after breakfast and last thing before you go to sleep at night.
After a meal have a drink of water .This washes your teeth and mouth.
2: Use a small
toothbrush with soft bristles. Hard and medium bristled toothbrushes can damage
teeth and gums.
3: Use fluoride
toothpaste. Spit it out when you have finished cleaning your teeth. Rinsing
your mouth will wash out too much of the protective fluoride. 'Spit, don't
rinse'.
4: Gently and thoroughly
brush each side of every tooth and the gums. It should take about 3 minutes to
do them all.
5: Avoid cleaning your
teeth soon after drinking acid drinks such as orange juice. The acid in drinks
softens the enamel, and cleaning can scratch the enamel while it is soft. Rinse
your mouth with water, wait for about half an hour, then clean your teeth.
6: Dental floss cleans
between your teeth, get your dentist to show you how to use floss.
7: Wash your hands after
going to the toilet and before using your toothbrush.
8: Don’t start smoking.
It stains your teeth and can lead to disease in the mouth. Keeping your toothbrush safe from germs
9: After brushing, rinse
your toothbrush under running water.
10: Store your toothbrush
in a clean dry place.
11: Do not share a
toothbrush, as this can spread germs.
Replace your
toothbrush often.

your teeth, you can keep them forever”
