4. Looking to keep your pearly whites for a very long time?
You're not alone.
When it comes to dental health, an ounce of prevention
is definitely worth a pound of cure. Prevent bad tooth
health using these great tips.

6. Floss every day. Flossing is still not popular in the US,
but has been shown to prevent cavities, freshen breath,
and even improve a person's general health. Don't
know how to floss? Ask your local dentist to show you.
Mouthwash is a must after meals. It can prevent
gingivitis in many cases.
Although the minimum amoint of brushing that a
person should do is twice a day, most dentists consider
it a smarter move to brush after every meal. The
cleaner the teeth, the healthier they are.

8. Looking to whiten your teeth? It's actually not
beneficial for your dental health to bleach your teeth,
but if you are focused on a pearly white smile, it's still
doable. Tell your dentist to match the whites of your
teeth to the whites of your eyes for a natural look.
Did you know that most people do not brush their teeth
long enough to actually reap the full benefits of
brushing? Brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes every
time.

10. There are certain foods which are downright toxic to
teeth. Super-sweet foods such as candy are well-known
to be terrible. However, a worse culprit is soda. Coca-
cola can actually dissolve a tooth within days if the
tooth is submerged and left in a can. Do you really
want that stuff in your mouth?
As a general rule, too much acidic food can cause
canker sores, cavities, and worse. Although you
shouldn't avoid all acidic food, try to balance it out
with more natural, healthy options as well.
Go at least once a year to a dentist. Most insurance
offers full coverage for preventive therapy, so you
might as well take advantage of it.
