Tips to Maintain a Healthy Smile Between Dental Visits

Tips to Maintain a Healthy Smile Between Dental Visits

Keeping your teeth healthy goes beyond your appointment at Cayo Dental — it’s a daily commitment. Here are simple, proven tips to help you maintain a radiant, pain‑free smile.

1. Brush with Purpose

Use a soft‑bristle toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste twice a day. Hold your brush at a 45° angle and gently clean all tooth surfaces.

2. Don’t Skip Flossing

Floss once daily to remove plaque where your toothbrush can’t reach. Consider interdental brushes for wider spaces or implants.

3. Rinse & Hydrate

Rinse with an antibacterial or fluoride mouthwash to reduce bacteria. Drinking water after meals helps wash away food debris and reduces plaque buildup.

4. Choose Foods Wisely

Limit sugary snacks and sticky foods. Crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples and carrots help clean teeth naturally.

5. Visit Regularly

Routine check‑ups and cleanings catch problems early and prevent costly treatments down the road. Cayo Dental’s team will guide you on how often you should visit based on your oral health needs.

Your smile is an investment — nurture it every day.
