It’s best to brush your teeth before bed and some time during the day. Many people choose to brush their teeth right after breakfast in order to have their breath fresh for work or school.

Pay attention if your gums bleed. This is not normal. This means you have gum disease.There are many toothpastes that help reduce the pain, swelling, and bleeding of gum disease. You also need to floss once a day before you brush your teeth. Floss even though your gums are bleeding. Over time, flossing and brushing will help reduce bleeding.

Another way to care for your teeth is to never start smoking. If you do smoke, you need to quit. Smoking not only increases your chance of getting gum disease, it also stains and weakens your teeth. The good news is that quitting smoking helps your overall health, not just your teeth and gums.
