At least another 7 million remain undiagnosed, and that doesn’t include the additional millions who are considered pre-diabetic. But what does diabetes have to do with oral health? Unfortunately, quite a lot.</span><br />

<strong>Diabetes And Gum Disease</strong></h3>

Diabetes is a chronic disease that either means the pancreas doesn’t produce insulin (type 1) or that the body doesn’t use it effectively (type 2 and gestational), both of which cause <strong>elevated blood glucose</strong>. The most serious impact elevated blood glucose has on <a href="https://www.colgateprofessional.com/patient-education/articles/diabetes-and-oral-health" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">oral health</a> is that it simultaneously weakens the immune system and provides more food for the bacteria that attack teeth and gums.</div>

The bacteria that causes gum disease can also travel through the bloodstream and make it even harder to regulate blood sugar.</div>

<strong><span style="color: red;"> </span></strong><br /><br />In addition to increasing the risk of gingivitis and periodontitis, uncontrolled diabetes can also lead to a <a href="http://www.ada.org/en/member-center/oral-health-topics/diabetes" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">variety</a> of other oral health problems, such as:</div>

Now for the good news: even with diabetes, <strong>good oral health is within reach</strong>. Even better: keeping your teeth and gums healthy will also make the diabetes easier to manage! Make sure to brush twice a day for two minutes with a soft-bristled brush and fluoride toothpaste, floss daily or use a water flosser or interdental brush, use a non-alcoholic mouthwash, and don’t smoke. Carefully regulating your sugar intake is a major factor as well.</div>

If you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes, the standard two dental exams per year may not be enough. To stay on the safe side, we recommend that you increase the number of yearly visits to three or four. It is also crucial for us to know how you and your doctor are working together to get it under control. Likewise, your doctor needs to know how we are working with you to keep your teeth and gums healthy.</div>

<strong style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">TRENDS IMPACT JUST</strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"> about every aspect of life, from slang and fashion to which toys are collectibles this year and which fad diet everyone’s aunt is doing.</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Most trends are harmless symptoms of an ever-evolving society and culture, but when they affect the ways we take care of ourselves, they can become serious. In recent years, do-it-yourself teeth whitening has been a “trendy” topic, so let’s take a look at a few of the more popular methods.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Charcoal Versus Tooth Enamel</strong></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
As counterintuitive as it seems to rub black powder on your teeth and expect them to become whiter, the rationale behind the idea makes sense. Charcoal is extremely porous and absorbent, and has been used even in hospitals to safely neutralize toxins. In theory, it could do the same for your teeth.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
However, charcoal isn’t just porous, <strong>it’s also </strong><a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/cosmetic-dentistry/teeth-whitening/article/what-is-charcoal-toothpaste-0517" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank"><strong>abrasive</strong></a>. Even as it absorbs harmful compounds from your mouth and disrupts bacterial populations, <strong>it could also be scraping away your enamel</strong>, doing more harm than good. Until we know more about the effects of charcoal on teeth, it’s safer to give that home remedy a pass.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Lemon Juice: Dissolving Stains Or Dissolving Teeth?</strong></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
The enamel on your teeth is the hardest substance in your body, <strong>but it is extremely susceptible to erosion by acid</strong>. Your saliva keeps the pH in your mouth balanced to protect your enamel, but any time you eat or drink something acidic, that pH is disrupted and your teeth are vulnerable. Using <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/basics/nutrition-and-oral-health/article/acidic-fruits-and-teeth-effects-0216" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">lemon juice</a> on your teeth in hopes of whitening them is, therefore, likely to cause a lot of enamel erosion, and once that enamel is gone, <strong>it’s gone for good</strong>.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Oil Pulling: An Ancient Folk Remedy</strong></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Oil pulling involves swishing oil (typically coconut, sunflower, sesame, or olive oil) around in one’s mouth for up to twenty minutes. Proponents of oil pulling claim it has numerous health benefits, including teeth whitening, but the American Dental association doesn’t recommend it because <strong>there is <a href="http://www.ada.org/en/science-research/science-in-the-news/the-practice-of-oil-pulling" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">no scientific evidence</a> to back up these claims</strong>.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Strawberries And Bananas</strong></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Strawberries do contain some citric acid, but they also contain malic acid (particularly when ripe), which actually can give your teeth a whiter appearance. Bananas contain potassium, magnesium, and manganese, all of which promote healthier teeth and can help remove surface stains. So these two do-it-yourself teeth whiteners <strong>may actually provide some <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3118922/The-secret-dazzling-smile-natural-way-Clean-teeth-strawberries-banana-peel-bicarbonate-soda-avoid-Gwyneth-Paltrow-s-coconut-oil-tip.html" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">benefit</a></strong>! Both fruits still contain sugar, however, so you should still <strong>brush your teeth with dentist approved toothpaste after eating them</strong>.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">

Trends like charcoal toothpaste and lemon juice mouthwash will come and (hopefully) go, and occasionally we’ll discover remedies that do have benefits, like strawberries and bananas, <strong>but the best benefits to our teeth will always come from dentist-approved methods</strong>. Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes and floss once a day, avoid sugary drinks and snacks, and schedule regular dental appointments.</div>

<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Dentures Have Ancient Roots</strong></h3>

False teeth have been around in some form since at least <a href="http://www.premierexhibitions.com/exhibitions/4/4/bodies-exhibition/blog/edentulous-brief-history-dentures" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">700 B.C</a>., when they were made out of human or animal teeth. Tooth decay became a much bigger problem after the Industrial Revolution when refined sugar became cheap and our intake of it shot through the roof. Because more people were losing teeth, more people needed false ones, and denture technology advanced.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Easily the most famous man who needed dentures back in the day was George Washington. We’ve all heard about his wooden teeth, <strong>but they’re actually <a href="http://www.mountvernon.org/digital-encyclopedia/article/false-teeth/" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">a myth</a></strong>. He had several sets of dentures, custom made for him from hippo ivory and human teeth, with gold wires and brass screws to hold them together.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Modern Dentures Have Come A Long Way</strong></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Today, dentures are typically made of plastics and acrylic resin, but they come in several different types, <strong>so let’s look at the <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/cosmetic-dentistry/dentures/article/full-dentures-partial-dentures-denture-care-learn-more" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">main ones</a>.</strong></div>

The Classic: Full Denture</h4>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
When none of the natural teeth can be saved, a conventional full denture is a common choice. The denture isn’t placed in the patient’s mouth until after the gum tissues have finished healing, which can take several months.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Many people don’t like going so long without teeth, so immediate full dentures can be used in the meantime. Because the bone changes shape over the course of those months, immediate full dentures have the drawback of not always fitting very well, and they can irritate the healing gums.</div>

When at least a few of the natural teeth are still present, they serve as excellent anchors for partial dentures that replace the missing teeth. Partial dentures can be inserted and removed in much the same way as retainers. Alternatively, a permanent bridge can be installed. Partial dentures are a great option because the more of your original teeth you have, the stronger your jaw bones will be.</div>

The main drawback with removable dentures is that they do little to prevent the bone loss in the jaws that occurs with tooth loss. <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/cosmetic-dentistry/dentures/article/implant-supported-denture" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">Permanent options</a> like dental implants, bridges, and implant-supported dentures do much better at continuing to apply the bite pressure the bone needs in order to stay strong, which preserves the shape of the face. They also make it easier to speak and chew than removable dentures, because they don’t have the risk of falling out.</div>

<strong>Take Proper Care Of Your Dentures</strong></h3>

All false teeth need regular cleaning to prevent discoloration and plaque buildup, whether they’re removable or permanent. They need to be brushed along with your gums, tongue, and palate. It’s important not to let them dry out, so you should store them in a denture soaking solution or even water when you’re not wearing them—just not hot water. Ultrasonic cleaners will also help keep them clean (but they don’t replace brushing).</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
However, while tooth length might be an accurate yardstick for judging the age of a horse, age is not the culprit behind receding gums in humans. Gum recession is simply such a <a href="http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20130807-does-age-damage-your-gums" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">gradual process</a> that it can take decades before the effects are noticeable.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Not All Gum Recession Is Avoidable</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
There are many contributing factors to gum recession, and some unfortunately include <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/conditions/gum-disease/article/receding-gums-and-treatment-and-causes-0214" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">genetics</a>. Some people simply have fragile gums or don’t have enough jaw bone covering the front of the roots of their teeth to support gums up to the crowns. The good news is that many of the other contributing factors can be controlled, and even if you’re predisposed to gum recession, there are ways to minimize it.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Bruxism Versus Your Gums</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KWYDBl29qxo/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KWYDBl29qxo?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Chronic teeth-grinding, or bruxism, causes a whole host of problems for your oral health, and one of them is increasing your risk for gum recession. All that grinding puts too much pressure on the gums, so they begin to retreat. Bruxism can be a difficult habit to break, especially if you’re doing it in your sleep, but you can minimize the damage to the jaw bones, gums, and teeth by using a mouth guard.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color: red;"> </span></strong></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Overbrushing Damages Gum Tissue</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
It might sound counterintuitive, but you can actually brush your teeth <em>too</em> much. Or, at least, too hard. Brushing teeth isn’t like scrubbing the grime out of tile grout; gums are not built to withstand the abrasive assault of hard-bristled brushes (and neither is the enamel on our teeth). Soft bristles are actually ideal for scrubbing away plaque and massaging the gums without damaging them. The same principle applies to flossing; you should definitely floss once a day, but go easy on those gums.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Tartar Buildup And Gum Disease</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
When plaque isn’t removed by brushing and flossing, it will eventually harden into tartar, which can only be removed by dental professionals. This means that the longer you go without a routine dental cleaning, the more tartar builds up along your gum lines, which puts you at risk for gum disease. Speaking of which…</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
In the early stages of <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/conditions/gum-disease/article/periodontal-disease" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">gum disease</a>, also called gingivitis, the health of your jaw bones is not yet at risk, which is good for avoiding gum recession. If your gums are tender, swollen, and bleed easily, it’s likely gingivitis. You can combat it with healthy brushing and flossing habits, but it’s also wise to bring the problem to us.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
If untreated, gingivitis advances to become periodontitis. This is when gums start pulling away from the teeth and the integrity of the jaw bones is compromised. There are many risk factors for gum disease, including smoking, hormonal changes (like during pregnancy), diabetes, and dry mouth as a side effect of medications. At this point, better oral hygiene habits aren’t enough and professional treatment is absolutely necessary.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">

<strong>MOST OF US</strong> already know that sharks constantly grow new teeth, venomous snakes use their fangs like syringes full of poison, and elephants have enormous tusks. As lovers of teeth of all shapes and sizes, today we’d like to take a moment to spotlight a few lesser known bizarre teeth out there in the wild.</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Crabeater Seals</strong></h3>

Contrary to their name, <a href="http://io9.gizmodo.com/crabeater-seals-look-like-they-have-buzzsaws-for-teeth-1584247294" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">crabeater seals’</a> diets consist almost entirely of antarctic krill, but you probably wouldn’t guess that by looking at their teeth. Where we have our molars, they have some very bizarre teeth. These teeth are like if a normal sharp canine tooth had many smaller canine teeth coming out of it. All together, they look like they’re packing deadly saws in their jaws.</div>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Even though they look deadly, crabeater seals use their teeth in much the same way that we use strainers for pasta: they’ll take a big gulp of ocean water, then squeeze the water back out while their teeth trap all the tasty krill inside. Yum!</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">

You’d be horrified if you woke up with orange teeth, but that’s because you aren’t a beaver. <a href="http://www.natureworldnews.com/articles/12784/20150217/why-beaver-teeth-ares-so-tough.htm" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">Beaver teeth</a> become orange over time because of the iron in the food they eat. The iron makes their teeth harder, which helps them chew through trees to construct their dams. But even iron doesn’t fully protect against wear and tear, which is why their teeth constantly grow.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color: red;"> </span></strong></div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Narwhals</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Narwhals are often called the <a href="http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/05/drone-footage-narwhal-tusk-mystery/" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">unicorns of the sea</a> because of the single spiral horn protruding up to ten feet long from the males’ heads. However, those aren’t really horns. In fact, they are tusks—in this case, elongated canine teeth that grow through the upper lip. Usually only the left one manages to grow that long, but some male narwhals end up with two full-length tusks, and occasionally a female narwhal will grow one or both as well.</div>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
As recently as May of this year, scientists still weren’t sure about the tusks’ purpose, but new footage has shown narwhals using their tusks to stun fish, making it easier to eat them. There’s probably more to it than that, though, because the tusks also contain millions of nerve endings, which likely means narwhals use them to sense their surroundings.</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">

We might not be able to bop fish over the head, saw through trees, or strain krill with our ordinary human teeth, but we still need them to be healthy and strong in order to chew our food, speak clearly, and share beautiful smiles with the people we love. Always remember to brush your teeth for two minutes twice a day, floss once a day, schedule regular dental appointments, and contact us if you’re having any dental problems in between appointments!</div>

Definitely keep doing those things, but if you want to step up your oral health game, here are a few easy ways to do that.<br />
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<br /><strong>Replace Your Toothbrush Regularly</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
One of the simplest ways you can improve your dental health and hygiene is to <a href="http://www.ada.org/en/about-the-ada/ada-positions-policies-and-statements/statement-on-toothbrush-care-cleaning-storage-and-" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">replace your toothbrush</a> on a regular basis. Vigorous brushing will make the bristles fray and reduce the brush’s cleaning ability, but that’s not the only reason toothbrushes should be replaced often.</div>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
A lot of the bacteria we brush off our teeth stays on the bristles of our toothbrushes. Proper storage–meaning storing the toothbrush upright and letting it dry out between uses–can keep a toothbrush from getting smelly and nasty too fast, but it’s still important to replace your toothbrush at least every 3-4 months.</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Use A Tongue-Scraper</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Brushing your teeth twice daily is a no-brainer, but don’t forget your tongue! The same bacteria and gunk that flourishes on teeth can hide on your tongue too. Using a tongue scraper or just running your toothbrush over your tongue will leave your mouth feeling much fresher than if you only focus on your teeth and gums.</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Don’t Brush Too Hard</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Sometimes it seems like we need to really work at those teeth when we brush, to get absolutely all of the food particles and plaque out. However, if we brush <a href="https://askthedentist.com/how-to-brush-your-teeth/" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">too hard</a>, we risk scraping away at the tooth enamel, which is your teeth’s first line of defense against decay. Brush gently or use a toothbrush with soft bristles to avoid damaging your teeth.</div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>Eat Teeth-Friendly Foods</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Many foods are bad for your teeth. Sugar and carbs feed the harmful bacteria living in your mouth and acidic drinks erode tooth enamel. Avoiding some of these foods will help, but there are also plenty of foods you can eat that are actually <a href="http://www.colgate.com/en/us/oc/oral-health/basics/nutrition-and-oral-health/article/healthy-foods-list-seven-best-foods-for-your-teeth-0214" rel="noopener" style="color: #458fc0; text-size-adjust: 100%; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">good for your teeth</a>.</div>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
Adding more cheese, yogurt, leafy greens, apples, carrots, celery, and almonds to your diet will make your teeth happy, whether by scrubbing them as you eat, fighting bad bacteria, treating gum disease, neutralizing your mouth’s pH, or remineralizing your enamel.<br /></div>
<h3 style="color: rgb(96, 96, 96) !important; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 22.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>We’d Love To See How Your Teeth Are Doing!</strong></h3>
<div style="color: #606060; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;">
If it’s been a while since your last dental exam, we’d love to see how your teeth are doing, and we’ll be excited to see how adopting these simple habits will affect your oral health by the time we see you again!</div>
