A dental tip from the desk of Dr. Anthony Prezioso:

Some simple tips that can help you maintain your smile in between your regular dental visits. Make sure you are brushing and flossing at least twice a day. Many people take a toothbrush to work or school to brush as soon as possible after eating. There are many dental rinses on the market, however, in a pinch you can rinse for 30 seconds with plain salt water. Remember the old rules of limiting your sugar intake and drinking water after your meals. Keep extra floss in your purse, car and night stand to get rid of the bacteria that hides in between teeth.
