If you want your pearly whites to shine like diamonds and be as strong as titanium, then follow these easy oral hygiene tips.
You Will Need
Toothbrush and toothpaste
Floss
Fluoride rinse
Good eating habits
Water
Dentist
Baking soda (optional)
Straws (optional)
Step 1: Clean your teeth（清洁牙齿）
Keep your teeth clean by brushing and flossing at least twice a day. Brush for 2 minutes and use a fluoride rinse to finish your cleaning regimen.
Add baking soda to your toothpaste. Baking soda is a natural, gentle abrasive that can help remove plaque from teeth, keeping them clean and white.
Step 2: Eat right（吃东西的时候要注意）
Avoid sugars and starches that can cause tooth decay. Eat your vegetables. Some vegetables and fruits, such as apples and carrots, can help clean your teeth. Don’t forget to eat dairy products. Products like yogurt, milk, and cheese can help neutralize acids and minimize cavities.
If you’re a fan of fizzy, sugary, or caffeinated beverages, use a straw to reduce staining and sensitivity.
Step 3: Drink water（多喝水）
Drink lots of water. Drinking water after meals or other beverages can keep stains at bay and keep your breath fresh. Tap water is best because it contains helpful minerals like fluoride.
Step 4: Visit the dentist（定期看牙医）
Make regular visits to your dentist. This will ensure that your teeth are kept clean, white, and strong. Dentists can also catch problems early and recommend treatment options. A beautiful smile is your reward.
