Dos and Don'ts for good oral health
# Brushing the teeth twice a day with soft bristles and toothpaste recommended by the Indian Dental Association.

# Massage of gums are also important part of brushing the teeth.

# It is important to maintain cleanliness of tongue using tongue cleaner.

# Avoid smoking, as it is known to cause oral cancer besides raising the risk of heart and respiratory diseases.

# Adequate care of oral health of pregnant woman is recommended, as it is directly linked to oral health of developing child.

# Drink plenty of liquids, especially water to keep your mouth moist.

# Avoid sipping coffee, soft drinks, tea throughout the day, as they can create an environment where it's easier for decay-promoting bacteria to flourish and erode tooth enamel.

# Green leafy vegetables, milk, curd, seasonal fruits, tomatoes and carrot should be included in the diet for strong and healthy teeth.

# Sticky and excessive sweet items should be avoided.
