Give Your Teeth A Fighting Chance: Follow These Oral Care Tips!

Teeth are the most highly calcified, mineralized structures in our body. For the most part they withstand a battery of assaults, both chemical and mechanical, everyday as we grind them and expose them to dietary acids. Over the course of a lifetime our teeth inevitably wear and breakdown. If we expect to maintain the function and the esthetics of our teeth over the course of a lifetime, we must give them a fighting chance! Here are some oral health tips that we recommend:

1. Brush and Floss daily - Brush your teeth at least twice a day and ideally after every meal, using fluoride-containing toothpaste. Brush your teeth for about two minutes each time and make sure you also brush your tongue.

2. Paying attention to your diet - our teeth take on an aged appearance when they have more enamel worn away by acids because they appear increasingly yellow. These acids are commonly from our diet in the form of coffee, soda, wine, juice and fruits. So be sure to pay attention to what you eat.

3. Visit our office at least every 6 months for regular maintenance.
