If you still have not made a new year’s resolution, you may want to consider prioritising your oral health in 2017. Ring in the new year with a new smile by following these five easy tips:

It goes without saying that regular brushing and flossing are crucial for maintaining a healthy smile. The best way to prevent tooth decay is brushing a minimum of twice a day. Don’t forget to floss at least once a day. Flossing your teeth removes plaque build-up and helps for healthier gums. Good health starts with your mouth, if you neglect to brush and floss on a regular basis you are putting yourself at risk for gingivitis and gum disease. Kick off the year with a fresh mouth with a thorough professional dental cleaning.

2) Leave the bad habits in 2016

For a healthier smile, consider It’s no secret that smoking has a negative impact on your health but it also ruins your smile. Consider leaving the pack behind and saving yourself from tooth discoloration, damaged gums, and oral cancer. Beverages like coffee and alcohol also have negative effects on your teeth. Excessive coffee drinking can stain your teeth and alcohol consumptions increases your chances of gum recession. Nervous habits like nail and lip biting lead to the wearing down of enamel, damaged gums, and the unhealthy spread of bacteria. Start your journey to a better smile and correct the damages done by bad habits with a teeth whitening.

3) Eat clean

Not only are fresh fruits and vegetables essential for a healthy diet, some can even help you with a more radiant smile. Foods that are high in vitamin C and antioxidants support healthy gums and protect from bacterial infection. Crisp fruits and vegetables like celery, apples, and carrots help for fresher breath and plaque removal.

4) Make a “Clean Routine”
