Healthy summer smiles tips

Posted on 2/21/2022 by Pacific Maxillofacial Center

During summer many people are happy going out to have fun in the sun and will have vacations. During vacations many people tend to forget that their teeth are important and they fail to offer the care that is needed to give them healthy smiles. To keep smiling there is a need to stay healthy and make sure that you have optimal oral health. There are tips on how you will have healthy smiles during the summer period.

Maintain routine

Daily routine of flossing and brushing is needed so that you are not exposed to tooth decay and loss. By making sure that you brush daily you will wash away the food particles that are remaining in the mouth after eating. This helps in prevention of formation of plaque and tartar that can cause you health issues. Flossing should not be neglected even if you are brushing the teeth. You need to keep flossing even after brushing for plaque and tartar to be eliminated. Ensure that you also brush the tongue so that bacteria and germs do not hide on gums. This is a routine that you need to follow when you are on holiday.

No to sugary drinks and foods

Summer holiday comes with plenty of sun; this means that people will want to consume sodas and ice-creams to feel cooler. The mouth gets exposed to sugary foods like sweets and cakes too. Instead ensure that you drink water if the heat is too much and as you intake meals you can consume drinks like milk. Do not damage your smile by taking sugar foods and drinks. When you realize that you are taking too many snacks then make sure that you take tooth smart snacks that will not harm the teeth. Ensure that you make regular dental visits for cleanings and oral examination to have a healthy smile
