A smile is a curve that sets everything
straight Like everything else your pearly white
smile requires care and protection. You brush
your teeth twice a day to keep that smile intact,
but at times you overlook these daily habits that
harm your oral hygiene. So, we have compiled a
list of 6 harmful habits for your teeth and how
to break them- 1. Brushing too hard- It is a
popular belief that brushing hard and fast is
good for teeth cleaning and plaque removal. On
the contrary it can cause irritation in the gums
and damage teeth enamel. Brushing at a moderate
pace, for two minutes, twice a day is the best.
Switch your hard bristled toothbrush for a softer
one.

2. Constant snacking- If you find yourself
continuously grazing between meals, consider the
harm it is causing to your teeth. Consistent
snacking is the most common cause for decay and
cavities. Eat three full, well-balanced meals and
try to cut back on snacking. And when you do
snack opt for fresh vegetables and non-sugary
snacks. 3. Using tobacco- This includes both
chewable tobacco and cigarettes. This is the most
dangerous habit for you oral hygiene. Tobacco not
only increases risk for mouth cancer, it can
permanently ruin your teeth and gums. Well, the
only way to get rid of this habit is to quit. You
can try the nicotine chewing gum to help you stop
using tobacco. 4. Jaw clenching and teeth
grinding- These can cause wear and tear in teeth,
jaw pain and misaligned jaw. Teeth grinding is
most difficult to break as it results from
subconscious behaviour (usually during
sleep). Consult your dentist for a mouth guard to
ensure your teeth are safe from damage.

5. Chewing on ice- Biting ice is very tempting,
but they are too hard for your teeth to handle.
They can even cause breakage of enamel. It is
also not healthy for your mouth to be constantly
exposed to icy temperatures. Avoid chewing on
ice, opt for smaller and finer pieces. For
munching needs you can also switch to vegetables
and other healthy foods. 6. Drinking sugary and
alcoholic drinks- Cold drinks and alcoholic
beverages have high sugary and acidic content,
which leave our teeth prone to cavity, tooth
sensitivity and enamel deterioration. Alcohol
consumption also leads to a dry mouth which leads
to harmful oral bacteria. You can switch to
juices with no added sugar or water. They will
keep you hydrated and fresh for long with no
harm. Do not skip out on your routine dental
check-ups and consult your dentist for all your
oral problems.
