Enter the New Year with a New Smile
As you get ready for the new year, add a new smile to your "To-do" list. This is a wonderful chance to make use of all your insurance benefits before the year ends.
It is very important to brush and floss your teeth as well as clean your tongue.
You can use tongue cleaners, tongue scrapers or just your tooth brush.
Tongue scrapers come in different size, shapes and materials. You can start using it from the back of the tongue to front of the tongue to remove bacteria, dead cells and food debris.
Cleaning the tongue can improve the taste, help with digestion, reduce the risk of developing cavities and gum problems as well as remove bad breath from the mouth.
Make sure to visit your dentist every 3 to 6 months for routine check ups.
