How to maintain the perfect smile in quarantine

In difficult times of quarantine, we sometimes neglect ourselves because we do not come in contact with other people, and one of the things we easily forget is maintaining good oral hygiene. Taking care of our smile is one of the "boring" routines of our daily life, however it is one of the most important to ensure our oral health.

To help you, we have gathered some tips to get out of quarantine with the brightest and healthiest smile!

 

Reduce consumption of sugar and acidic foods

The sugar as well as the acid in the various foods erode the enamel of our teeth, as a result of which we have dental alterations without knowing it.

 

Consume more water

As in all other parts of the body, water has beneficial properties on the teeth, since it "washes" the mouth area from food and creates a feeling of freshness.


Brush your teeth properly twice a day

With gentle movements and without exerting excessive force on your teeth, brush your teeth to remove plaque.

 

See your dentist often

You should not forget to visit the dentist whenever possible for cleaning or whitening, to make sure that the teeth and the mouth area are healthy. Now in quarantine, you have a lot of time available and it is a good opportunity to visit your dentist for a checkup!


Familiarise yourself with flossing and mouthwash

After brushing our teeth for best results and to prevent gingivitis, the use of floss is ideal. If you do not know how to use it we will show you. Wrap the floss tightly around your finger and put it in the gap between the teeth. Then pull gently up two to three times. If bleeding occurs, it is most likely due to gingivitis.

 

The mouthwash with a specific schedule will remove food from areas of the mouth that the toothbrush does not reach and will nourish our teeth.

 

These tips, if followed correctly, will give you the brightest and healthiest smile.
