\"5It\u2019s a new year, which means one thing to many people: New Year\u2019s Resolutions. What do you want to be better in 2017? Your health? Your appearance? Why not improve both and give your smile a little attention. These 5 healthy habits from your dentist in Denver at Pearl Dentistry will help your teeth look and feel better than ever this year, and make other people take notice.<\/p>\n

1. Better Brushing and Flossing<\/h2>\n

Sure, you brush and floss your teeth every day, but are you doing it the best possible way? Many people only brush once a day, when it\u2019s best to brush in the morning and <\/em>at night. How about your gums? When was the last time you thought about them? They\u2019re just as important as your teeth when it comes to your oral health. They protect your teeth\u2019s sensitive roots and bring them precious blood. This year, while you\u2019re brushing, be sure you clean where your teeth meet your gums, and you\u2019ll be helping your smile tremendously.<\/p>\n

2. Watch the Sugar<\/h2>\n

Cavities are caused by sugar. More specifically, the naturally occurring bacteria in your mouth consumes this sugar and turns it into acidic plaque. Foods high in sugar like sodas, candies, juices, and energy drinks speed up this process. You don\u2019t need to give them up entirely, just limit your consumption to help protect your teeth.<\/p>\n

3. Drink More Water<\/h2>\n

This will help you with #2. Whenever you\u2019re thirsty, you should try and drink water. Not only will it keep you hydrated, but it will also give your teeth a nice rinse, removing excess sugar and food particles. It\u2019s the next best thing to brushing your teeth.<\/p>\n

4. Stop Using Tobacco<\/h2>\n

Both smoking and smokeless tobacco can wreak havoc on your teeth. They can create a sticky film that is difficult to brush off, which can make stains cling to them. They also leave you vulnerable to gum disease, which is actually the leading cause of tooth loss<\/a>. Do whatever you can to start to limit your use of tobacco, and you\u2019ll start to see dramatic changes in a short amount of time.<\/p>\n
