We all now by now that Lindsay Lohan is a HOT mess right? but I have to admit I was kind of annoyed when there were a ton of bloggers making fun of Lindsay Lohan for her teeth, which did seem to be decaying. Making fun of celebs/people like that is just not something I find amusing, so when I saw that she got some new pearly whites, I was happy for her. Also because this means she still cares about herself enough to fix it (especially since she had seemed so paranoid about her teeth, she looked afraid to open her mouth)! Maybe this is the beginning of a comeback for her? I’m rooting for her, if Britney Spears did it so can Lindsay right?…. This also made me think, we need to keep our teeth and gums as healthy as possible, sooooo here are some tips for a gorgeously healthy smile!
Tips for a healthy smile:
1. Floss, Floss, Floss!! Flossing is sooo important, and totally underrated! Brushing is said to only clean your teeth around 60%-65%, so flossing is the only way to make sure you don’t get cavities in between your teeth!
2. Brush the Right Way! Make sure when you brush, you take your time. Brushing your teeth the right way is essential for proper plaque removal! Always make sure you tilt your brush towards your gums slightly and brush gently!
3. Eat the Right Foods! Some foods actually create a PH level in your mouth that can be harmful for your smile. For instance, eating foods with high acidity levels like vinegar, soda and too much citrus fruit and the like can make your teeth more sensitive to enamel corrosion. There are also foods that promote healthy teeth and gums! Foods with high fiber, like apples, broccoli and celery promote saliva production which will help keep your teeth clean!
4. Chew On This! Chewing sugar-free gum can help encourage healthy teeth and gums dramatically! It also helps produce saliva, which helps keep your teeth plaque free, but it also helps keep your teeth super white!
Remember, smiling is good for your health! Always remember to visit your dentist regularly and use mouth wash when you can! Good Luck Xxxx
