WHY GOOD ORAL CARE IS IMPORTANT

Good oral health includes a healthy diet. It is essential to avoid sugary foods, caffeine, smoking and alcohol as all of these contribute to poor oral health. Your dentist can help you find a diet plan that is right for you, or you can prepare one yourself. There are plenty of good food guides, including those by the National Health and Well Being Association. Some basic food tips include avoiding high fat content foods, such as cheese and butter, and reducing the amount of high sugar content foods, such as biscuits, cakes and candy.

Good oral care also includes regular dentist visits. You may want to consider using an automatic teeth whitener at home. You can get an over-the-counter tooth whitener at most pharmacies or drug stores. Alternatively, you can visit your local dentist and have them take a swab of your teeth for whitening
