Just because you have more candles on your birthday cake doesn’t mean you can’t have an ageless smile. While eating healthy foods and exercising may help you enjoy greater overall health, taking care of your teeth and gums as you age can help you enjoy a younger-looking smile.
Preserve your pearly whites by practicing healthy oral hygiene habits such as brushing at least twice a day and flossing at least once a day. You may also want to consider using a mouth rinse containing fluoride.
Another way to maintain a gleaming smile is by avoiding foods and beverages that can age your smile. Major culprits include blueberries, red wine, coffee, and tea. Smoking can also damage your teeth along with your health. Aim to kick the habit.
Visiting us every six months for a checkup may also help prevent gum disease and keep you smiling brightly for many birthdays to come!
