15 Tips To Reduce Dental Cavities Just as our physical health is important, our dental health is equally important. Normally, we care about our diet and health but we sometimes forget our teeth. We

intake a large amount of food and these food particles remain in between the teeth

and then form bacteria resulting in cavities in the long run. We all know the basic tips to take care of our dental health, a few of these tips are described below: Brush Your Teeth Regularly

You should be regular in brushing your teeth. Ideally is it advisable that you should

brush your teeth at least twice a day if not after every meal. This will keep food particles from sticking in between your teeth and prevent bacterial infections in the long run.

Rinse Your Mouth With Water

It is a good habit to rinse or gargle with water after meals. For best results, try doing gargles with warm water. Eat a Balanced And a Healthy Diet

The health of your teeth also depends on what you eat. Selecting healthier choices and making the conscious decision to lead a balanced diet can also help sustain healthy

teeth. Less healthier options such as junk food has become a major reason for the cavities in children.

Try Avoiding Often Snacking

It is good to consume small meals but munching on a frequent basis can be negative for your teeth This will increase the gathering of food particles in your teeth and it is not always possible to brush after every meal or snacking. Use a Mouthwash

It is a good habit to rinse your mouth with a mouthwash after brushing your teeth. This will remove all the bad breath and the remaining bacteria from the mouth. Avoid Sugar

A proportionate amount of sugar in our body is okay but our teeth can not necessarily bear more then needed. Try to avoid foods and drinks containing high sugar levels. This will help to reduce the chances of creating cavities. Use Fluoride Based Toothpaste

Fluoride is a component that helps in preventing the cavities. This component is

majorly present in toothpastes and you should be careful in choosing your toothpaste accordingly.
