Brushing too hard can do more harm than good. Scrubbing aggressively doesn’t mean cleaner teeth. It can actually wear down enamel and irritate your gums. The trick is to use a soft-bristle toothbrush in gentle circular motions and brush for a full 2 minutes. Think of brushing like massaging rather than scrubbing. If your toothbrush bristles fray quickly or your gums bleed often, it might be time to rethink your technique.

Did you know some foods can naturally support dental health? Crunchy fruits and veggies like apples, carrots, and celery help remove plaque and stimulate saliva to neutralize acids. Cheese also strengthens enamel by balancing pH and providing calcium.

Although these foods can give your smile a boost, remember that brushing twice a day and flossing daily are essential! Have questions? Call us at 505-503-6720.

False! Brushing alone misses up to 40% of your tooth surfaces. That’s like washing only 60% of your body! Flossing isn’t just about removing food. It’s also about preventing gum disease, cavities, and even bad breath. Floss daily for cleaner and healthier teeth!

Green tea is rich in natural compounds that fight bacteria and reduce inflammation! This makes it a great beverage for not just your oral health, but your overall wellness too. Catechins in green tea may even help reduce the risk of gum disease, and it’s gentler on your enamel than coffee or soda. For a healthy smile, enjoy it plain - no lemon or sugar.

Are you still using that toothbrush from six months ago? We recommend changing your toothbrush every three months. Swap it out sooner if the bristles look frayed or if you’ve been sick. Worn-out bristles are less effective at cleaning and can cause gum irritation. Keep your brushing routine fresh and schedule your semiannual checkup with us at 505-503-6720.

Nuts, such as almonds, cashews, and Brazil nuts, are packed with essential minerals that help keep your teeth strong and gums healthy. Almonds, in particular, are low in sugar, high in calcium, and help stimulate saliva production, keeping bacteria away. Nuts are also a tooth-friendly swap for chips or crackers, which often leave behind starchy residue. More dental health tips? Contact us at 505-503-6720.
