Oral Hygiene Mistakes to Avoid by Martin Urban, DDS | Sep 29, 2021 | Martin Urban DDS
Good oral hygiene is essential to living a long and healthy life. A proper cleaning routine prevents the bacteria and germs in the mouth from traveling to other parts of the body. While everyone knows the importance of brushing and flossing on a daily basis, there is still a good chance that you are not doing everything necessary to get your mouth as clean as possible. These are the four most common oral hygiene mistakes everyone needs to avoid.
Skipping the Mouthwash It is nearly impossible to kill all the bacteria in your mouth while brushing your teeth. Your mouth may seem clean, but there is almost guaranteed to be some lingering bacteria. This is why it is vitally important to use mouthwash on a regular basis. In addition to freshening your breath, mouthwash also works to kill dangerous bacteria in the mouth. Use mouthwash roughly 30 minutes after brushing to get the best results.
