Beware of the Stainers
Unfortunately, a lot of things that taste good can also stain your teeth. Red wine, cola, coffee and tea can all contribute to staining. Try to cut down on your consumption of these products within reason. Also, if you smoke tobacco then the unattractive stains that result from your habit are yet another reason to quit.

Use an Electric Toothbrush
Many of us are simply not very good at brushing manually. Investing in an electric toothbrush will do wonders for your smile and general dental health. Many models come with timers set to 2 minutes (the recommended brushing time) which will help you brush for long enough to remove plaque and any light stains picked up during the day.

Replace your Toothbrush Regularly
Using a worn out toothbrush will limit the effectiveness of regular brushing and even risks spreading bacteria around your mouth. Mark the date on your calendar 3 months from the time you make the purchase so you will know when it is time to replace. Due to the busy lives we lead we tend to not pay attention to details and with days turning into weeks and weeks into months so quickly, having reminders to call your attention is a sure way one can keep his or her health up to par; especially dental health.
