  1. 5 Simple Tips to Prevent Gum Disease

  2. Tips to Prevent Gum Disease • Gum disease is preventable and treatable. • It develops slowly and does not involve pain, making it difficult to diagnose. • It's important to pay attention to your dental care habits to not give gum disease a chance to occur.

  3. Here are Some Simple Tips to Prevent Gum Disease:

  4. Brush At least Twice a Day Using Fluoridated Toothpaste • Proper brushing is crucial to maintaining healthy gums. Wait for 30 minutes after eating to protect your teeth. • Be sure to spend at least two minutes when brushing. Cover all areas of the teeth that the brush can reach. Look in the mirror to see if there’s still any debris left or areas that you’ve missed cleaning. • Don't forget to clean your tongue too as it can also become breeding places for harmful bacteria.

  5. Floss At least Once A Day • Complement your brushing with regular flossing. A dental floss can get to areas that your brush won't be able to. • This is especially crucial if you're using orthodontic devices, such as braces. Debris can easily get stuck in tight spaces. • If you're not comfortable with using traditional floss, you can also look into using a dental floss holder.

  6. Eat A Healthy Diet • Your mouth also needs nutrition from the food that you eat to keep it healthy and strong. • Bacteria feed off sugar and form harmful toxins that attack the teeth and gums. Minimize the intake of sugary, starchy, and processed foods. Include fruits and vegetables in your diet. • If you have picky eaters at home, look into recipes that can conceal vegetables. You can also trade some of your snacks with fruits, such as apples and grapes.

  7. Avoid Cigarettes • Cigarettes are harmful to both your oral and your overall health. • It isn't easy to quit from smoking, but with the help and support of your loved ones and health professionals, you can do it. • In the process, don't be too hard on yourself. Making a little progress every day is fine, it will all pay off in the long run.

  8. See Your Dentist Regularly • Even with regular brushing and flossing, debris can still linger in the mouth and develop into plaque and tartar. • With professional dental cleanings, the build-up can be removed from your mouth. • Your dentist can also examine your gums and teeth for any signs of problem.
