Our top tips include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Brush your teeth for two minutes, twice per day with a fluoride toothpaste.<\/li><li>Brush your tongue every time you brush your teeth to remove plaque and eliminate odor.<\/li><li>Floss between your teeth once a day to stimulate the gums, reduce plaque and lower inflammation.<\/li><li>Drink more water. Drinking water after meals helps wash out some of the negative effects of sticky or acidic foods and beverages.<\/li><li>Eat more fruits and vegetables to help clean plaque from your teeth and freshen your breath.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to take care of your mouth when you are sick<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you happen to get sick, here are a few ways you can keep your mouth healthy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Maintain your oral hygiene routine.<\/li><li>Rinse your mouth with diluted mouthwash or water with a teaspoon of baking soda after vomiting instead of brushing right away to reduce your teeth\u2019s exposure to acid.<\/li><li>Stay hydrated to prevent dry mouth and help boost your immune system.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you or a loved one is in need of dental services, our wonderful team of dentists at Alpine Dental Health is here to help.
