A bright smile makes a big difference. As the daughter of a dental hygiene worker, I take care of my teeth everyday like a military routine. Whenever my friends and I travel, they always tease me how long it takes me to brush my teeth, floss, use mouthwash, brush my teeth again, and then apply teeth whiteners. You know how some girls take a long time to do their hair and make-up? Well, it’s the same for me with teeth.

When I was a little wee girl visiting the dentist, I was always frightened by those pictures of yellow, crooked, and decayed teeth. It scared me so much that the dentist actually had to replace them with kid-friendly posters on the walls (and lollipops – I always got a lollipop after every dentist visit). Anyway, I was motivated to take extremely good care of my oral hygiene. I’m proud to say that I’ve never experienced any cavities or toothaches before!

What is the secret behind my success? It’s a combination of common sense and also some devoted effort. Here are a few of my tips for achieving a white beaming smile:

1. Brush your teeth daily! Personally, I recommend brushing your teeth after every meal, but I know that may not be possible in some situations. (Imagine going out with friends and carrying a toothbrush in my purse!) At the very least, however, you should brush your teeth once after you wake up and once more before you go to sleep.

2. Use the right toothpaste! There are a lot of different toothpaste brands out there in the market. Choose the one that creates the best results for your teeth. I know I’ve experimented with many different brands until I reached upon one that satisfies my needs. Also, I know some people’s teeth are more sensitive than others, and there are appropriate toothpaste to remedy that effect.

3. Floss! I cannot stress the importance of flossing! Like any part of your body, the gums in your mouth needs a routine workout. Flossing is like exercise for your teeth and gums. Simply brushing your teeth is not sufficient dental hygiene. You’d be surprised how much better condition your teeth would be in if you floss everyday!

4. Use mouthwash! This not only kills any bacteria in your mouth, but you also get fresh minty breath that will make a big difference in how you approach people.

5. Visit the dentist often! It is very important that you get routine check-ups with the dentist, who will keep you up-to-date with the condition of your teeth. If you have a cavity or toothache, it’s best to take care of the problem soon before it worsens over time.

If you follow these five procedures on a routine basis, I guarantee that you’ll have a whiter smile which could light up an entire room. Cialis Professional Remember to never slack off. It might seem like a long time to spend fifteen to thirty minutes cleaning your teeth everyday, but you will see the difference in the long run.
