The basic oral hygiene practices include:

  • Brushing your teeth at least twice a day using a soft-bristle toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
  • Flossing daily to remove plaque and food particles from between the teeth.
  • Using mouthwash to rinse the mouth and kill bacteria.
  • Visiting the dentist for regular check-ups and professional cleanings.
