  1. How to Keep Your Mouth Free from Gum Disease

  2. Gum Disease • Gum disease isn’t known as the silent offender for nothing. It can spread without you even noticing the symptoms. It’s important then to take care of your mouth to ensure that your gum stays in good condition. • Gums protect your teeth by securing them in place. So when gum is infected or damaged, it may result to tooth loss. Gum diseases are preventable and reversible, though. Don’t wait for any dental issue to get serious before you take action.

  3. Here are important tips to keeping your mouth gum disease free:

  4. Brush and Floss Properly • Everyone already knows by now that regular brushing and flossing is essential. However, not everyone is able to commit to these habits. Make sure to do so even when you’re on the go. • Keep a dental floss in your bag, along with a portable toothbrush. If it’ll be really hard to brush or floss, at least drink with water. Water will help neutralize acids in your mouth and wash down any food debris left.

  5. Include Veggies in your Diet • You are what you eat. Keep your immune system at par to prevent bacteria causing gum diseases. Incorporate vegetables in your diet as they can help stimulate saliva production in your mouth, which is good for your teeth. • Do take in protein and calcium too to help keep bones around your teeth strong. As much as possible, skip the sugary drinks too. Try green tea instead as research suggests it is capable of reducing inflammation.

  6. Chew Sugarless Gums • Like eating vegetables, chewing sugarless gums helps keep saliva flowing. Keeping your mouth moist is crucial in neutralizing acid in your mouth. • These acids are harmful as they damage the enamel or the outermost shell surface covering your tooth. Ask your dentist about any brand they recommend.

  7. Rinse with Warm Salt Water • Consult your dentist first about this, though, as too much salt water is not good for your tooth enamel. However, rinsing your mouth with warm salt water can as well help in neutralizing acids in your mouth.

  8. See your Dentist Twice a Year • By seeing your dentist regularly, you are able to prevent any dental issues from worsening. Your dentist can detect early signs of mouth problems. Together, you can create a treatment plan to suit your needs.
