As children, we're taught early on to brush our teeth when we wake up and before we go to bed. But brushing alone isn’t enough. To truly keep your teeth and gums healthy, you need a complete oral care routine. Good oral hygiene prevents cavities, inflamed or bleeding gums, and bad breath. Neglecting it can have serious consequences for your overall health. But don’t worry—we’ve got the best tips for your oral care routine. Because a healthy smile means a happy Smyle.
Brush Your Teeth
Step one of your perfect oral care routine is probably obvious—and hopefully already part of your day. Choose a toothbrush that suits you and feels comfortable to use. Dentists recommend brushing with a fluoride toothpaste, like our Smyle toothpaste tablets. That way, you’re brushing vegan, cruelty-free, plastic-free, and without microplastics. Prefer fluoride-free? No problem—we make that too. Once you’ve chosen your toothbrush and toothpaste, use them twice a day for about two minutes.
Flossing
Flossing after brushing is super important, because your toothbrush can’t reach every spot in your mouth. Your teeth naturally build up plaque, and brushing alone won’t remove it. So make sure to floss at least 2 to 3 times a week after brushing.
Mouthwash
Now that your teeth are brushed and flossed, it’s time for mouthwash. Rinsing with mouthwash kills any remaining harmful bacteria—even in those hard-to-reach places. Mouthwash helps protect your enamel and leaves you with a fresh breath!
Extra tips
Brushing, flossing, and rinsing with mouthwash together form the perfect routine for a healthy oral care regimen. But there are a few extra habits that can help keep your smile even healthier. For instance, try to wait at least an hour after brushing before eating. Avoid consuming too many sugary or enamel-damaging products—so don’t overdo it with the sweets! And don’t forget to visit your dentist regularly—ideally twice a year. They’ll help guide you on your journey to optimal oral health.
Plastic-Free Oral Care
A healthy oral care routine starts with natural ingredients. But did you know that 9 out of 10 cosmetic products contain microplastics? Toothpaste and mouthwash are no exception! That’s why it’s important to choose your oral care products carefully.
