Hygiene Tips for Kissable Lips
Valentine’s Day is your mouth’s moment to shine! From the “Kiss Me” messages on mini candy hearts to romantic songs on the radio, a kiss is probably on your list this year. Before cozying up to your loved one make your mouth extra kissable with a few of our favorite tips:
- Brighten Your Smile
Nothing is more attractive than a bright smile! If you’re looking for a boost in confidence, ask Vacendak Dentistry about our cosmetic whitening options. In-Office treatment with us lasts longer and is safer than the over-the-counter brands you encounter at the drugstore.
- Beware Bad Breath
Bacteria is a major culprit of bad breath. Regular habits like brushing and flossing help to prevent it, but there are healthy solutions if you’re looking for a quick fix. Freshen your breath with ADA approved mouthwashes or sugarless gum. Both can freshen your breath instantly and get saliva flowing-especially after you eat foods with a strong scent.
- Keep Your Hands to Yourself
For many couples, a big relationship step is keeping a toothbrush at each other’s place. Just make sure to only use your own! Sharing a toothbrush means sharing germs. That welcomes new, cavity-causing bacteria in your mouth.
- Drinking Water is Sexy
Not only does staying hydrated give skin a healthy glow, it’s key to keeping your mouth kissable. Drinking water promotes healthy production of oxygen-containing saliva which deters the growth of smelly oral bacteria (bad breath). Make H20 your beverage of choice and you and your loved ones will reap the benefits.
