Top Tips for Healthy Gums
Brush Twice a Day: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Don’t forget to brush gently along the gumline.
Floss Daily: Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between your teeth and under the gumline.
Eat a Balanced Diet: Foods rich in vitamins and minerals, like fruits and vegetables, support gum health.
Stay Hydrated: Drinking water helps wash away food particles and bacteria.
Regular Dental Check-ups: Visit us regularly for cleanings and check-ups to catch any issues early.
