Glister, Amway's popular dental care advocates for Filipinos about proper oral care. It was revealed by the DOH that at least 73 million Filipinos suffer from tooth decay.
Dr. Anna May Carina, General Dentistry & Orthodontics, points out that certain foods and drinks that we usually enjoy today like soda, ice cream, cakes, and other sweet cravings take a toll on our oral health.
"When we consume too much of these foods and drinks, we're not really helping our saliva do its job of clearing food debris away and neutralizing acids. They stick to your teeth for a longer time that only creates an oral environment where bacteria can thrive, increasing your risk of developing plaque, which can eventually strip your tooth's protective enamel," said Dr. Carina. "While we completely remove all these foods and drinks from our lives, we can counter their impact on our dental health by diligently observing good oral care and hygiene."
Dr. Carina also recommends using a soft-bristled toothbrush that should be replaced after three or four months. Also, use toothpaste with just the right amount of flouride. "Flouride can give the teeth extra protection against decay. It doesn't only prevent cavities, it can ever reverse mild tooth damage. To get the full benefits of flouride in your toothpaste, avoid rinsing your mouth immediately after brushing."
"Flossing daily is something that a lot of people overlook. It has specific goal that brushing along won't achieve. It's meant to remove the accumulation of plaque between the teeth and underneath the gums, where germs thrive. If you bleed whenever you floss, this may be a sign of gingivitis, but keep at it. If your gingivitis is mild, flossing can help manage and reduce this over time," added Dr. Carina.
With these in mind, Glister advocates an effective Total Oral Care System that's designed to clean teeth, freshen breath, and keep gums healthy with its plant-based dental solutions infused with traceable Nutrilite growth peppermint: Glister Multi-Action Toothpaste for gently and effectively removing plaque in between teeth while also gently stimulating the gums, and Glister Multi-Action Concentrated Oral Rinse that can help kill gingivitis and bad breath-causing bacteria.
