If you think that may be the case for you, here are some ways that you can get your teeth in better shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get A Cleaning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most dentists recommend seeing them for a regular checkup or cleaning at least twice a year, and since it\u2019s still early in the year now is a perfect time to start that habit. These checkups are not only an opportunity for your dentist to clean in places that you can\u2019t normally reach with brushing and flossing, but they can check you for any oral health problems that could be nagging at you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start Flossing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While your dentist can do a lot for you, there really isn\u2019t any substitute for good daily dental hygiene. One aspect of that that often goes underappreciated is flossing\u2014it\u2019s crucially important, but a frustrating number of people leave it out of their dental routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to go into spring with your smile feeling fresh, flossing is a great place to start. You could also consider other options if you aren\u2019t a fan of dental floss, like interdental brushes. These do the work of flossing but tend to be a little bit easier to manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a New Toothbrush<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you\u2019re focusing on hygiene, take a look at your toothbrush\u2014is it looking a little worse for wear? It\u2019s recommended that you replace your toothbrush once every three months, or any time it starts looking a little rough. Otherwise, it may not be cleaning you as well as you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you\u2019re replacing it, you might consider getting an electric toothbrush\u2014they\u2019re been clinically proven to clean more effectively than analog toothbrushes. Many of them have removable heads, which makes replacing them easier in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. J.D. Robison is a dentist who loves nothing more than for a patient to walk into his practice with a problem and to walk out with a smile on their face.
