WAYS TO KEEP YOUR TEETH HEALTH.
1. BRUSH YOUR TEETH ATLEAST TWICE A DAY.
Don’t go to bed without brushing your teeth.
2. BRUSH PROPERLY

The way you brush is equally important, in fact, doing a poor job of brushing your teeth is almost as bad as not brushing at all. Take your time, moving the toothbrush in gentle, circular motions to remove plaque. Unremoved plaque can harden, leading to calculus buildup and gingivitis (early gum disease).
3. DON'T NEGLECT YOUR TONGUE.

Plaque can also build up on your tongue. Not only can this lead to bad mouth odor, but it can lead to other oral health problems. Gently brush your tongue every time you brush your teeth.
4. USE A FLUORIDE TOOTHPASTE.

When it comes to toothpaste, there are more important elements to look for than whitening power and flavors. No matter which version you choose, make sure it contains fluoride
5. FLOSS YOUR TEETH.
6.CONSIDER MOUTHWASH.
It reduces the amount of acid in the mouth, cleans hard-to-brush areas in and around the gums, and re-mineralizes the teeth.
7.LIMIT SUGARY AND ACIDIC FOODS.

Ultimately, sugar converts into acid in the mouth, which can then erode the enamel of your teeth. These acids are what lead to cavities. Acidic fruits, teas, and coffee can also wear down tooth enamel.
8. SEE YOUR DENTIST ATLEAST TWICE A YEAR.
