The good news is that dental caries can be prevented. Here are some tips for maintaining healthy teeth and preventing caries:
– Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
– Use dental floss (or interdental brushes, if recommended by your dentist) to clean hard-to-reach areas.
– Limit the consumption of sticky carbohydrates (sugars), carbonated drinks, and sweet foods. Reduce the frequency of consuming such foods and drinks.
– Regularly visit your dentist for preventive check-ups and teeth cleaning.
