TranslateImprove your oral care routine today to promote a more radiant smile.
Aging has the ability to dull and damper our smile; however, it certainly doesn’t have to. By making simple changes, and by visiting our Camarillo, CA, dentists Drs. Adib and Neda Setareh twice a year for professional cleanings, you can protect one of your most valuable assets from looking old and drab. Here are some ways to immediately spruce up your oral care routine,
Brush After Meals
If you really want to keep your smile looking its best, then you’ll want to up your brushing game from twice a day to after each meal or snack. By brushing your teeth immediately after eating you can prevent new stains from forming.
Don’t Forget to Floss
While brushing your teeth is necessary for preventing yellow stains from forming on the front and back surfaces of your teeth, it’s crucial that you also flossing your teeth at least once a day to prevent stains from forming between teeth. It’s a good idea to floss your teeth at night before bedtime so that you can remove the plaque and bacteria that have accumulated throughout the day.
Choose a Whitening Toothpaste
While you should already be using a toothpaste that contains fluoride (this can strengthen enamel and prevent cavities), if you want to prevent new dental stains one way to do this is by using whitening toothpaste. Whitening toothpaste contains abrasives that can scrub away minor discolorations and keep your teeth looking their best.
