Floss at least once a day.

Sparkle White Dental Floss features an expanding thread technology that fits the in-betweens perfectly, enough to remove deep-seated dirt and food debris. “Keeping the in-between teeth clean will prevent you from getting tooth decay,” stated Beley.

Though often neglected, Dr. Beley reiterates that some surveys say that 80% of people don’t floss regularly and she recommends everyone to include this in their dental routine. “That’s why Sparkle white dental floss with the expanding technology is a great product that will not only clean the interdental surfaces of our teeth but also will massage our gums lines due to its soft fibers.” She closes.

Brush with soft-bristled toothbrushes like Sparkle Ionic Toothbrush that will help us easily dislodge plaque and dirt. “Always go for soft-bristled toothbrushes so it won’t be too harsh for your gums and teeth,” says Dr. Beley.

Aside from its top-notch bristles, Sparkle Ionic Toothbrush features Ionic Technology which can be easily activated just by positioning your wet thumb on top of the stainless marker. Ions are proven effective in loosening the bond of dirt and stains from the enamel causing it to be dislodged quickly from the tooth.

Mouthwash is not just effective in keeping fresher breath but it also helps in removing plaques easily.

Drink lots of water.

Aside from keeping you hydrated. Water will avoid you from having a dry mouth which can easily be a source of mouth sores and other infections.

Moderate your colored drinks intake.

Though there’s nothing wrong with having yellowing teeth. Discoloration on your chompers may be caused by your food intake or just plain ol’ genetics, you can still avoid it from worsening if you take colored drinks like coffee, tea, wine, or soft drinks in moderation.

Get used to sipping your drinks with a straw.

If you can’t really avoid drinking coffee or soda. At least take it by sipping it into a straw. It will prevent coffee and other colored drinks from soaking your front teeth.

Others suggest drinking water after having colored drinks to rinse and wash your mouth.
