Here are some useful tips i would like to share on #NationalDentistsDay
1) Brushing technique:
Toothpastes don’t do miracles, its ur technique. Dont be harsh on ur teeth n gums while brushing.
Go with small circular strokes. NO horizontal brushing! Brushing for 2mins is enough

2) Brush your teeth twice a day.
Flossing the right way is better than not flossing at all as it will remove the food particles entangled between the teeth.
3)Mouthwash containing Chlorhexidine reduces the bacteria and help to prevent decay but overuse can stain ur teeth!

So use it when it’s being prescribed by ur dentist. Mouthwash can nevr be d alternative of brushing.
4)sugarfree chewing gums containing Xylitol help reducing bacteria in mouth n increase the salivary flow that helps to fight decay. But don’t use it when u have crown/ bridges.

We Indians don't really take care of our teeth. We take them, a very important part of our body, for granted and misuse and abuse it. We rush to a dentist only when there is excruciating pain.
And more often than not, we get taken in by the ads of companies selling toothpaste and tooth brushes. So what are the simple steps that we can take to keep our teeth in a good shape? Dental Doctors - please feel free to add / correct me!!
