Brush your teeth twice a day: Brush your teeth for at least two minutes in the morning and at night before going to bed- fluoridated toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush to remove plaque and prevent cavities.
Floss regularly: Floss at least once a day to remove food particles and plaque between teeth. You can use traditional floss or interdental brushes, whichever you find more convenient.
Use mouthwash: Use mouthwash to supplement brushing. Use at least 30 minutes before or after brushing your teeth.
Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps to rinse away food particles and bacteria in your mouth. It also helps to prevent dry mouth, which can lead to bad breath and tooth decay.
Limit sugary and acidic foods and drinks: Sugary and acidic foods and drinks can erode tooth enamel and cause cavities. Limit your consumption of these foods and drinks and rinse your mouth with water after consuming them.
Chew sugar-free gum: Chewing sugar-free gum can help to stimulate saliva production, which neutralizes acids in your mouth and helps to prevent tooth decay.
Schedule regular dental checkups: Make sure to schedule regular dental checkups and cleanings with your dentist.
