Get The Perfect Post-Lockdown Smile with These Simple Tips

With the lock-down opening up, an increase in outdoor activities, interactions, and a change in schedules is but natural. However, you must not forget that your smile is an integral part of your personality – and that it needs attention. In fact, the beginning of our return to the new normal is the perfect way to build up hygienic oral care habits. Read on to know five tips for the Perfect Post-Lockdown Smile from one of the best dental clinics in Pune, Dental Sphere
Cut down on those sweet crystals:
Sugar is an addictive substance (and is arguably even more harmful than drugs) considering its unrestrained presence in almost everything that you eat outside. An over-consumption of sugar based foods is one of the leading reasons of bad oral hygiene in modern times. Over time, snacks like candy, packaged crisps, and biscuits can cause serious cavities and tooth decay, not to mention obesity and mental issues as well. If you want to keep your teeth and overall health good, replace processed sugar with God given natural sugar present in freshly cut fruits, dry fruits and vegetables. You can also go for stevia or sugarfree artificial sweeteners if you just can’t get rid of morning tea or coffee or a pastry every once a while. Remember that water is the best beverage for your teeth, so keep the sugary drinks only for special occasions, and in moderation, and replenish necessary fluids with water.
Create Healthy Routines:
To maintain high standards of oral health, it is also important to maintain routines, and regular brushing and flossing. The best way to ensure that you stick to healthy habits is by creating a chart of your daily progress, and strictly following it.
Use fluoride based toothpaste:
When it comes to toothpaste, besides choosing brand and flavors also look for fluoride. Fluoride is one of the primary defenses against cavity-causing germs. The mineral fluoride occurs naturally in the earth’s crust and is released into the soil, water and air. Fluoride makes teeth stronger and more resistant to cavity-forming acids, working to prevent decay long before you would even notice it. As bacteria and sugars form acids that slowly lead to decay, fluoride works to strengthen the enamel.
Keep a Mouthwash handy:
It worth noting that mouthwash provides much more dental care than simply taking care of breath; it also is a powerful helper to the regular toothpaste, particularly in those whose brushing skills may not be up to the mark. Mouthwash helps in three areas particularly:
- Helps restore alkaline nature to the acidic mouth, particularly after a meal of acids and sugars
- Cleanses areas difficult to brush in, particularly tiny crevices and the back of teeth
- Replenishes the minerals dragged away by bacteria in teeth
Schedule Regular Appointments to the Dentist:
Finally, it is important that you schedule regular appointments with Dental Sphere, one of the preferred dental clinic for all dental treatments which provides one of the best services for teeth whitening in Pune. Before the going gets too busy, remember to call and schedule an appointment at the Dental Sphere Clinic at the earliest.
