Healthy Oral Hygiene Tips in San Jose CA Area

You’ll never regret the time and effort you put into oral hygiene. Good oral care habits will be rewarded with a bright and beautiful smile. If you are residing in and around San Jose, California, bi-annual exams and cleanings at the office of Natalie K. Provenzano DDS, Inc. should be a part of your oral hygiene routine. The combination of home and professional dental care will help keep your teeth healthy and strong over the years.

Importance of Oral Hygiene

Oral hygiene plays a key role in preventative dentistry. Good oral hygiene habits can prevent dental problems like decay, tooth infections, gingivitis, and periodontitis before they ever start. Keeping cavities and dental disease at bay protects your overall health, as oral infections can spread through your bloodstream to other parts of your body. Advanced gum disease, aka periodontal disease, can impair your internal organs and increase your risk of diabetes, stroke, and heart disease.

Healthy Oral Hygiene Tips

Home oral care is the foundation of healthy teeth. By doing your part to care for your teeth, you can enjoy a healthier, brighter smile year after year. The following oral hygiene tips can help you keep your teeth healthy and strong long-term:

  • Be diligent in brushing your teeth twice daily, using a soft bristle brush and fluoride toothpaste.
  • Floss at least once daily to remove food particles between your teeth.
  • Rinse with an anti-bacterial mouthwash daily.
  • Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help keep your teeth clean.
  • Quit smoking and avoid other tobacco products.
  • Limit your consumption of alcoholic drinks.
  • Eat healthy foods that are good for your teeth. Limit sugary and acidic foods and drinks.
  • Make bi-annual dental exams and cleanings a part of your regular oral hygiene routine.
