Aging is inevitable. It’s one of the permanent things in this world. But just because it’s unavoidable doesn’t mean we just leave it to take its natural course. There’s no reason to associate aging with pain, wrinkles, wasted look, and most especially dull smile. After all, a bright smile is an indication of good health and youth.
One quick beauty tip: regular visits to your dentist in Newport Beach can do a lot in boosting your youthful look. Remember that aging gracefully is more than skin-deep. Good oral health also does a lot in aging and preventing health issues linked to aging such as heart diseases, diabetes, and stroke. Of course, brushing and flossing helps in keeping your oral health healthy, but even if you’ve been a diligent brusher and visitor of your dentist, there are other habits you do that affect your teeth and mouth. Read on to find out which habits to do and not to do to keep a healthy smile.
1.Drinking and brushing. Brushing after mealtime is important. But there is an exception to the rule: don’t clean your teeth after drinking acidic beverages such as soda and wine. Brushing right after drinking acidic beverages will erode the tooth enamel. So, instead of brushing immediately, sip water or chew gums instead. This will help saliva production to neutralize acid in the mouth.
2.Use a straw. Soda junkies should practice this at all time. Acids in juices, sports drink, and sodas erode teeth enamel. Sipping with straws help limit contact of acid in the mouth.
3.An apple a day keeps the doctor (and your dentist in Newport Beach) away. Eating crunchy foods such as apples and carrots help remove stain in the teeth. These crunchy foods have an astringent quality ideal for cleaning the teeth. But don’t forget to rinse your mouth with water if you can’t brush after eating.
4.Kiss a lot. Kissing increase saliva production. With enough saliva in the mouth, the teeth are cleansed and cavity causing bacteria are removed. But don’t make this as an excuse to kiss anyone. If you don’t have anyone to smooch, consider chewing sugar-free gums with xylitol.
5.Eat whole grains. Aside from preventing diabetes and heart diseases, whole grains also keeps the teeth healthy. It helps stabilize blood sugar and reduce the chance of periodontitis in diabetics.
Coupled with regular visits to your dentist in Newport Beach, these habits will surely help you look younger instantly. So, maintain good dental habits and you are sure to age gracefully.
