  1. Is There Something Wrong With Your Teeth? Your Habits Might Be Taking a Toll on Your Oral Health and You Won’t Know It

  2. We all love to smile and laugh out loud with family and friends and neighbours, but with healthy, sparkling white teeth. Don’t you? Maintaining healthy teeth and oral hygiene is the key to not just the everlasting smiles but a healthier life. • Yes, for you might not realise it and you must know, your oral health and hygiene has a lot to do with your overall wellness. Gum disease, a very common dental condition, is linked with the likes of heart disease, respiratory disease, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes.

  3. While most of us do realise the importance maintaining dental health and indulge in a good oral care routine including daily brushing, flossing and regular dental visits, we often overlook our unhealthy habits, which is what implicitly influences our overall well-being. • So, you do not just have to indulge in healthy oral care practices, but need to avoid those unhealthy ones to promote good general health. That said, here are five common yet bad habits most of us have and need to avoid right now.

  4. Brushing Harder Won’t Help • Yes, if you were wondering being harder on your teeth while brushing is going to get them shinier, you need to rethink. • Brushing harder doesn’t get your teeth cleaner but leads to a number of problems like tooth sensitivity and gum irritation. • Certified dentists in Halisham advise using a soft bristle brush and call brushing twice a day for 2 minutes a good dental practice.

  5. Your Teeth Aren’t a Tool • Using your teeth often to open a bottle or plastic bag or even chew your fingernails now is going to cost you a lot later. • Our teeth are strong enough to crack, break and chew many hard things but going to an extreme can make you sit in dental clinics for hours too.

  6. Just Don’t Grind • Clenching and grinding your teeth, most commonly done in your sleep, may leave you stressed and cause damage to your teeth. • Mouth guard is a device that dentists recommend to protect your teeth from any injury and damage and prevent grinding.

  7. Ice Crushing isn’t Your Teeth’s Job • If you have grown the habit of crushing and licking those chilled ice cubes, you must stop now. • You might not realise, but the hard, cold thing is chipping and cracking your teeth and damaging your gums.

  8. It’s Your Teeth, For God’s Sake • You grab a pin, clip or any sharp pointed object you see and start removing tiny food particles between your teeth. • And then, you hurt your gums, damage your tooth enamel and sometimes widen the space between your teeth. If you must pick your teeth, use dental floss.
