By taking good care of your teeth, not only will you have white teeth, but also help you in avoiding any damage to your gums and teeth.<\/p>\n<p>There are many dental hygiene basics that most of you would already be aware of. However, there are a few dental hygiene hacks that you can make use of for upkeeping of oral and dental health.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, you&#8217;ll get to know which foods are good for your teeth; which toothpaste should you choose; and a sugar substitute that your teeth will you love.<\/p>\n<p>So without further ado, let&#8217;s begin.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Eat Detergent Foods<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Detergent foods are those foods which help clean your teeth while you eat them. These foods are generally firm, crisp and fibrous. They do not serve as a replacement for brushing your teeth, however, they work as a kind of scrub on the teeth, which prevent the accumulation of particles stuck from your teeth. Hence, it prevents bacteria and other tooth-harming microbes.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, detergent foods boost saliva production \u2013 bringing your mouth&#8217;s pH level to optimal level.<\/p>\n<p>These are few examples of Detergent foods:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Apples<\/li>\n<li>Pears<\/li>\n<li>Carrots<\/li>\n<li>Unsweetened Popcorn<\/li>\n<li>Celery sticks<\/li>\n<li>Lettuce<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can add these foods into your diet to keep and maintain good dental hygiene. It is a very effective and easy dental hygiene hack.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Which Toothpaste Should You Choose?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You are standing inside a grocery store and looking at many different toothpastes and wondering which one to choose? Well, it can indeed be confusing to pick the right one out of so many options.<\/p>\n<p>All whitening toothpastes are not the same. The ingredients used in these whitening toothpastes include chemicals like fluoride, enzyme systems, and abrasives. And, some of these ingredients can do more harm to your teeth in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>So, the next time you go to a grocery store to buy a toothpaste, choosing the right whitening toothpaste is most important.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the thing: AVOID toothpastes that use abrasives. The reason for that is it can damage your enamel and cause more damage to your teeth in the long run. You may, even though, notice aesthetic improvement from whitening toothpastes with abrasives, but if you keep using them for a while, the end result will not be worth the temporary whitening improvement.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to check the ingredients of any whitening toothpaste so to avoid buying one with abrasives.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Use Apple Cider Vinegar<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Apple cider vinegar is known for its general health benefits, which include dental hygiene as well. Yes, the anti-bacterial properties in apple cider vinegar, makes it effective for both dental aesthetics and general health.<\/p>\n<p>Dental issues like plague, bad breath, unsightly buildup, and tooth decay are caused by the lingering presence of bacteria. And, using apple cider vinegar is an effective way to keep the bacteria away from harming your dental health.<\/p>\n<p>Not only will it help with getting rid of bacteria in your mouth, but also make your teeth whiter and a fresher breath.<\/p>\n<p>You can use this hygiene hack by: swishing apple cider vinegar around your mouth, gargle it, then rinse it with water. However, apple cider vinegar is acidic, particularly if it is not diluted. So, always make sure to dilute it!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A Sugar Substitute good for your Teeth<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many of you would be aware that sugar contributes to tooth decay. From cavities to other detrimental effects, the negative impacts of consuming sugary foods and beverages should not be taken lightly.<\/p>\n<p>But if I told you there is a sugar substitute called xylitol, which is actually beneficial for your teeth. Yes, I&#8217;m not kidding. You may have seen &#8216;xylitol&#8217; written as one of the ingredients in chewing gums. Xylitol is also added in oral care items.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits of xylitol include preventing tooth decay, reducing decay-causing bacteria found in saliva, and increasing saliva production (Saliva plays a vital role in oral health).<\/p>\n<p>So, now you know why xylitol is a great sugar substitute for your teeth!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Proper dental hygiene is important to have aesthetic and healthy teeth. If you don&#8217;t pay attention to your oral health, it will cost you a lot more money later on. It is much better to be pro-active and save money from any oral health treatments. We all want healthy and white teeth, and these dental hygiene hacks can certainly contribute towards that. Take care of your teeth and yes, keep smiling!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like more information on how to easily and\u00a0painlessly whiten your teeth, feel free to check out <a href=\"https:\/\/teethwhiteningadelaide.net.au\">Teeth Whitening Adelaide<\/a> \u2014a one-stop site for all your teeth whitening needs!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.19.3&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0|0px|0|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.19.3&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.19.3&#8243;] Everyone desires a good set of healthy white teeth.
