Brush your teeth twice a day - This will help to remove any plaque and bacteria from your teeth, providing protection against tooth decay and erosion. However, make sure you don’t brush your teeth too vigorously, as this can lead to damage in itself. If you have eaten something particularly sugary or high in acidity, then you should choose to brush your teeth afterwards.

Floss your teeth every day - You should floss your teeth at least once a day. This will help to remove bits of food and any bacteria that get caught up in the gaps between your teeth. If you floss only once a day then it is advised that you do so before going to bed. It would also be beneficial if you floss after each meal.

Consider learning how to use an irrigator and buying a tongue scraper/brush. Your mouth will feel fresher and morning breath will be a thing of the past. Look for more “healthy” toothpastes and dental products.

Avoid sweets and fizzy carbonated drinks - Sugary foods eat away at the teeth as soon as they are eaten. This can lead to tooth decay and erosion.

Don’t leave a problem unchecked - If your teeth have suddenly become sensitive to cold or hot drinks, or if you find that when you brush your teeth your gums bleed, then you should make sure you see your dentist. Don’t leave such troubles to simmer as they will likely only get worse.

Don’t rush through cleaning your teeth - If you rush through the act of brushing your teeth then you will not be getting them clean enough. Plaque will likely still be in place, as may little bits of food. One should take one's time when brushing your teeth and ensure that each tooth is given sufficient time and care.
