Is your toothbrush starting to look a little worse for wear? If the bristles are frayed, bent, or splayed out, it's a sign that it's time to part ways. It's recommended to replace your toothbrush every 3 months, or sooner if it shows signs of wear. A fresh brush means a cleaner, healthier smile!

Elderly people are not the only people at risk of gum recession, even though that idea is where the expression "long in the tooth" originated. Some people are unlucky enough to be genetically prone to gum recession, but there are several avoidable factors that contribute to gum recession (in kids as well as adults!):

#1: Overbrushing. Anyone brushing hard enough to leave their toothbrush bristles bent outward is probably overdoing it. When we're brushing our teeth, we're cleaning living tissue, not floor tiles! We need to be gentle. Use soft-bristled brushes and don't use excessive pressure. Likewise, don't snap the floss directly onto the gums! Gently work it down the side of one tooth instead.

#2: Gum disease. As it progresses, gum disease can wreak havoc on the supporting structures around the teeth, making it a major cause of gum recession. The best defenses are limiting sugar intake and keeping up with oral hygiene habits, along with regular dental appointments.

#3: Bruxism. A grinding habit puts a lot of pressure on the teeth and gums and can cause damage over time. Lifestyle changes, cognitive behavioral therapy, and meditation can help break the habit.

There are many things parents can do to put their kids' smiles on the right track for a lifetime of good oral health. Here are a few of them:

#1: Find them a toothbrush they like using. A child's toothbrush should be the right size for their hands and mouth and it should have polished, soft bristles. It should also be one they like, whether that means that it's their favorite color or it has their favorite character on it. (And don't forget to replace it when the bristles fray.)

#2: Protect against cavities with sealants. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends sealants, especially for kids who've already had tooth decay. Sealants protect the pits and grooves of molars, greatly reducing the risk of cavities.

#3: Offer them teeth-friendly snacks. All snacks are not created equal! Whole and sliced fruit are great options (the fibers scrub the teeth clean and the natural sugars aren't as harmful as added sugars in processed food), as is cheese (it stimulates saliva production and provides a source of calcium).

#4: Manage whitening toothpaste expectations. Every teen wants the perfect smile, but they need to keep a realistic idea of what whitening toothpaste can do. It can help with surface stains, but it won't fix white spots from braces or deeper stains.
