Dentist Fort Lee Oral Health and Wellness Guide
Your overall oral health will be determined by your family dentist, a general dentistry professional. When you take a trip to your dentist, you are most likely like everyone else, and you are afraid of what they might say about your mouth. You are afraid of what they might find. It is normal for you to be a bit anxious about going to the dentist, however, using this guide, you can do away with your worries. You can use the guide to ensure your mouth is dentist visit ready. These guidelines will ensure success in maintaining a healthy smile. 
 

How Many Times Should I Brush and Floss a day?

 
All dentists will tell you that you should brush at least twice a day. It is crucial that you brush when you wake up, after breakfast, and before bed, after dinner. For perfect oral hygiene, brush three times per day. After every meal. You should floss twice per day, gently, or when you have food stuck in your teeth.
 

What Foods and Drinks Can Hurt My Teeth?

 
Any food or drink with an excess amount of sugar is going to hurt your teeth. This is especially true for processed sugars. Soda, coffee, tea, and even flavored waters have far too much sugar in them. When the sugars and other ingredients in these products sit on your teeth, they begin to break down the enamel, causing decay and tooth rot. Foods with high acid content can be damaging as well. Citrus is an example of high acidity.

 

Should I Use Mouthwash?

 

Yes. A gentle mouthwash should be used after brushing and flossing. There are many mouthwash products on the market, and all work, but you can still talk to your dentist to see what they recommend. When you use it after brushing and flossing, it will rid your mouth of the old food that was cleaned off, and the alcohol in the product will kill all the bad bacteria that cause plaque and gingivitis. Simply swish it around in your mouth for 30 seconds, spit, and rinse.
