While you\u2019re in spring cleaning mode, don\u2019t forget about your oral hygiene regimen. After all, can you remember the last time you cleaned your toothbrush holder? If the answer is \u201cno,\u201d then here are some tips to \u201cspring clean\u201d your dental routine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Wipe Down Your Bathroom Counter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For many people, wiping down their bathroom counter is something they do every week or every other week. That said, it\u2019s a good idea to give this area a bit of a deeper clean and focus on the areas that are sometimes missed, like the area behind your faucet. That way, you have a nice, clean foundation to start with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Clean Your Toothbrush Holder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At a glance, your toothbrush holder may look relatively clean. Upon closer inspection, however, you might notice that toothpaste, spit, and other gunk has collected on the surface or at the bottom of the container. So, it\u2019s worth taking the time to give it a good clean with some soap and water!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Replace Your Toothbrush<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that you\u2019re supposed to replace your toothbrush (or toothbrush head) every quarter? If it\u2019s been longer than that since you got a new one, use this as a reminder to do so. In fact, this is a great time to consider upgrading your toothbrush to an electric one if you still use a manual one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Throw Away Any Expired Products<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, you may have accumulated an excess of products in your medicine cabinet or in the drawers under your bathroom sink. If that\u2019s the case for you, then dedicate some time to throwing away expired toothpaste, mouthwash, and the like. It\u2019s also a good idea to take notes of what you need backups of, like toothbrush heads, so you\u2019re never left in a pinch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Schedule Your Next Dental Checkup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, even if you are diligent about brushing and flossing your teeth, it\u2019s possible for plaque and food particles to get left behind. That\u2019s why scheduling your next dental checkup and teeth cleaning should be a part of your spring cleaning to-do list!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wyliefamilydentistry.com\/\">Wylie Family Dentistry<\/a> isn\u2019t just here for routine checkups; we\u2019re here to help you and your family keep your smiles healthy all year round.
