Eating healthy isn’t always easy, sweets and other foods that aren’t good for us are often tempting. However, the healthier you eat, the better you’re taking care of your body – keeping it healthy overall. Foods like lean proteins, healthy fats (like avocado), fruits, veggies, and whole grains make up a great diet! Avoiding sugar also helps avoid other dental infections (tooth decay).
Speaking of avoiding dental infections, your oral hygiene plays a huge role in the amount of bacteria you’ll find around your mouth. If you’re not brushing twice each day and flossing at least once, now is the perfect time to start!
Last, but certainly not least, regularly visiting your dentist will ensure that your oral health is always optimized. Not only will they thoroughly clean your teeth (removing any bacteria), but they also examine your mouth to look for any abnormalities – signs of infection, excess wear, etc.
