While some of the usual resolutions are to save more money and lose weight, a dentist in Arcadia says not to forget your mouth, teeth and gums. Read on to learn 5 simple habits you should adopt in the new year that will improve your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canzoneridentistry.com\/general-dentistry.html#cleanings\">oral health<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Habit #1 \u2013 Maintain Regular Visits<\/h2>\n<p>One of the best ways to prevent oral maladies from developing is to visit your dentist every six months for checkups and cleanings. By maintaining this routine, you\u2019ll be able to maximize your dental insurance and save money by preventing costly and complex restorative procedures down the road.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, these visits provide you with an opportunity to ask any questions you may have so you can take better steps to improve your oral health on your own.<\/p>\n<h2>Habit #2 \u2013 Brush Your Teeth Twice Daily<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been slacking on brushing your teeth consistently, then this is a great time to turn things around. Not only will brushing your teeth twice a day help to prevent the growth of bacteria, but it will also remove leftover food and drink residue that could contribute to unflattering teeth stains.<\/p>\n<h2>Habit #3 \u2013 Floss Your Teeth At Least Once a Day<\/h2>\n<p>While brushing your teeth is vital to your oral health, it can only address roughly 60% of the surface of your teeth. To get into the tight spaces that can\u2019t be navigated with your toothbrush, you\u2019ll need to floss. The flexible material allows you to remove the bacteria that hide between your teeth, which can greatly contribute to the development of gum disease.<\/p>\n<h2>Habit #4 \u2013 Limit Your Sugar Intake<\/h2>\n<p>The main nemeses of your oral health are bacteria, and their primary source for sustenance is sugar. Thus, eating an abundance of snack foods and drinking sodas and juices can contribute to the growth of more bacteria, which can compromise your oral health over time.<\/p>\n<h2>Habit #5 \u2013 Use Your Teeth Only for Eating<\/h2>\n<p>When you have trouble opening a package, do you find it more convenient to use your teeth as a prying tool? Do you have a habit of biting your fingernails? If so, then you run the risk of a dental emergency from your teeth cracking or breaking.<\/p>\n<p>A simple resolution for the new year, then, can be to only use your teeth for chewing food.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you make improvements in your diet or schedule an appointment for a dental cleaning, any steps you take to improve your oral health will pay big dividends in the long-run.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Kenneth J.
