It can be easy to
take your smile for granted. You wake up, maybe brush for two minutes, or maybe
decide to wait until after breakfast. You might forget altogether in the rush
of the morning. We always assume that our smile is going to carry us through
and we’ll just get things done the next time. But here are 7 dental risks you
make be taking every day that are causing problems for your smile.
1.
Not brushing in time. When you consume high
sugar foods or drinks and high carbohydrate foods, the length of time that the
substances stay on the surface of your teeth provides a longer opportunity for
problems to arise.
2.
Consuming food that is too cold. (example)
3.
Not flossing. Removing food from between the
gums is essential to your gum health. If you’re starting to see your gums bleed
during routine brushing and flossing sessions that can be the sign of worse
things to come.
4.
Chewing on Ice can damage the enamel causing
cracked and broken teeth.
5.
Consuming less than 8 servings of fruits and
vegetables a day.
6.
Eating foods that are high in acid. (example)
7.
Consuming several sodas a day.
Your dental health is
so critical to your body health. Keep your smile in great shape and kick these
habits to the curb.
