blanqueamiento
New year, new life... A maxim that accompanies us every January in the form of promises to quit smoking, lose weight, join the gym, or simply enjoy life more. It seems as if the twelve grapes we gobble down in seconds constitute some magic potion that renews our willpower to achieve our goals. Well, if you're one of those people and this year your wish is to show off a whiter smile, we leave you a series of tips to achieve it:

1. Brush your teeth properly

This is the foundation of any dental care routine. Brush your teeth at least twice a day, preferably after every meal. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Don't forget to brush your tongue to eliminate bacteria that can cause stains and bad breath.

2. Use dental floss daily

Dental floss reaches places your toothbrush can't. Removing food debris and plaque between teeth prevents stain formation and keeps your smile bright. Make it a daily habit, preferably before bedtime.

3. Watch your diet

Certain foods and drinks are major culprits of dental stains. Coffee, tea, red wine, sodas, and dark sauces can darken your teeth over time. If you consume them, rinse your mouth with water afterward or use a straw to minimize contact with teeth.

4. Quit smoking

Tobacco is one of the worst enemies of white teeth. It causes stubborn yellow and brown stains that are difficult to remove. Quitting smoking will not only improve your smile but your overall health.

5. Regular dental visits

Professional cleanings every six months remove tartar and surface stains that daily brushing can't eliminate. Your dentist can also detect problems early and recommend specific treatments for your case.
