7 tips to keep up your dental hygiene
#6. Still having sensitivity? Try at-home remedies. A warm saltwater rinse can help reduce bacteria and soothe tender gum tissues. Use a mix of equal parts hydrogen peroxide and water to decrease plaque formation and the potential for viral spread. Over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications can lessen inflammation anywhere in the mouth and relax a tooth nerve after accidental trauma. Applying light pressure to a sore area inside your mouth with a comfortably warm peppermint tea bag or holding cold compresses against your mouth from the outside, can divert manageable discomfort and give you time to reevaluate the need to contact your dentist. Topical ointments from the toothbrush aisle are always a temporary option.

#5. Wear your night guard or retainers. And do not forget to clean them and allow them to air dry (away from your loving pets – you are going to regret when it becomes an expensive chew toy).

#4. The use of mouthwash
Mouthwash, also known as oral rinse, is a liquid product used to rinse your teeth, gums, and mouth. It usually contains an antiseptic to kill harmful bacteria that can live between your teeth and on your tongue.
Rinsing with a mouthwash twice a day will help reduce plaque, freshen your breath and assists reducing cavities. In addition, it can help to keep your gums safe from gingivitis. For mouthwash recommendations, please ask us at your next visit.

#3. Flossing is a Must
Flossing removes food particles and plaque that has built up between your teeth. If these particles stay on your teeth, bacteria will increase throughout the night. Flossing only at night is fine for most people, but if you are prone to gum disease or tartar build-up, we recommend that you floss twice a day. Find more information on how to floss in our blog post.

#2. Replace your toothbrush (or electric toothbrush head) more frequently. Also, keep it stored in a place where it can dry far away from the nastier spots in the bathroom (i.e. near the toilet). And while we are at it, do not share your toothbrush (or any other oral hygiene help) with loved ones. Cross contamination is a problem and we do not want to be spreading the viral love around.

#1. Step up your oral health game if your teeth are feeling fuzzy: At the bare minimum, you should be brushing your teeth in the morning and before bed, but if you are sitting at home after lunch do not be afraid to show those teeth and gums some extra love. With all the free time on our hands at home, is there any excuse to not using floss or breaking out that Waterpik? Now is when we can refocus our dental home-care routines and form new habits. Use all the tips and tricks your dental team has taught you. When in doubt do more, but gently. Remember that you are cleaning your mouth, not the bathtub grout.
