Top Tips for a Healthy Mouth This Summer

There is nothing like some summer sun to get you in the mood for a holiday, but as you relax, make sure you don’t neglect your oral care by following these easy tips.

Drink Water

Water helps to wash away harmful bacteria, and it freshens your breath, so keep a refillable bottle with you.

Don’t Drink Sugary Beverages

Energy drinks and fruit juices are marketed as healthy drinks but can contain massive amounts of sugar and acid. Instead, reach for that bottle of plain water or choose unsweetened tea or diluted juice.

Brush and Floss Regularly

Make the most of your two-minute brushing time by concentrating on cleaning each tooth thoroughly, as clean teeth don’t get cavities. Afterwards, don’t forget to floss.

Don’t Chew Ice Cubes

An ice-cold drink is refreshing but leave those ice cubes in the glass as chewing on them can crack or chip teeth.
