Here’s How You Can Maintain Oral Hygiene and Keep Dental Problems At Bay

To take care of oral health, experts suggest a mouth rinse after every meal. Reducing intake of tea or coffee and including natural vegetables and fruits take care of your oral health. // Gunita Singh, cosmetic and laser dental surgeon shares how you can maintain oral hygiene:

• Rinse thoroughly after every meal either with water or a mouthwash.
• Use floss or an interdental brush after a heavy meal to clean the gaps between the two teeth.
• Use a mouth freshener in case you have heavily garnished meals.
• Avoid sugary snacks (or include them along with your meals).
• Try and munch on natural vegetables and fruits to satisfy your cravings as the fibers in them act as natural cleansers for your teeth.
• You can also eat cheese to end your meal as it increases the salivary flow and reduces the risk of cavities as it cleans the sugar out of your mouth.
• Sugarless gums are a great aid when you just can't brush or floss your teeth amidst an important meeting. Moreover, chewing xylitol gums also increase the salivary flow, like cheese, and reduce cavities.
• Reduce your intake of tea or coffee to avoid getting unnecessary stains on teeth.
