Most people do not think amount their oral health care nearly as much as they should. Below is a list of questions to help you determine if you are taking steps needed for a better life via a well-groomed smile:

– Do you avoid chewing tobacco and smoking?
– Do you use an oral cleaning product after eating, to limit the damage of harmful acids?
– Do you brush, floss, and use mouthwash daily?
– Do you limit between-meal snacks, which can increase tooth decay?
– Do you brush your tongue, along with your teeth, to help prevent bad breath?
– Do you eat nutritious and well-balanced meals from the five main food groups?
– Do you avoid recreational drugs, which cause mouth dryness and promote tooth decay?
– Do you get regular check-ups at your dental office?
– Do you limit intake of bread, cereal, and chips, which speed up plaque formation?
– Do you drink plenty of water, which can help with tooth decay?

If you answered yes to 1 to 4 questions, your oral health is poor, and needs improvement.
If you answered yes to 5 to 9 questions, your oral health is ok, but needs improvement.
If you answered yes to all 10 questions, your oral health is great, keep up the good work!
