Tips To Improve Oral Health:

1) Fluoride's protection against tooth decay works at all ages. Drink fluoridated water and use a fluoride toothpaste.

2) Limit alcohol intake. Heavy use of alcohol is also a risk factor for throat and oral cancers. When used alone, tobacco and alcohol are risk factors for oral cancers, but when used in combination the effects of tobacco and alcohol are even greater.

3) Take care of your gums and teeth. Thorough flossing and tooth brushing will help to prevent gingivitis and reduce dental plaque.

4) Avoid tobacco. In addition to the general health risks posed by tobacco, smokers have four times the risk of developing gum disease compared to non-smokers. Tobacco use in any form, whether it's pipes,  cigarette, or smokeless (spit) tobacco, will increase the risk for throat and oral cancers, gum disease, and oral fungal infection (candidiasis). Spit tobacco containing sugar increases the risk of tooth decay. Additional information is available at http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/publications/CDNR/.

5) Eat wisely. Adults should avoid snacks full of starches and sugars. Limit the number of snacks eaten throughout the day. The recommended five-a-day helping of vegetables and fiber-rich fruits stimulates salivary flow to aid remineralization of tooth surfaces with early stages of tooth decay.

6) Visit the dentist regularly. Check-ups can detect early signs of oral health problems and can lead to treatments that will prevent further damage, and in some cases, reverse the problem. Professional tooth cleaning (prophylaxis) also is important for preventing oral problems, especially when self-care is difficult.
Diabetic patients should work to maintain control of their disease. This will help prevent the complications of diabetes, including an increased risk of gum disease.

7) If medications produce a dry mouth, ask your doctor if there are other drugs that can be substituted. If dry mouth cannot be avoided, chew sugarless gum, drink plenty of water, and avoid alcohol and tobacco.

8) Have an oral health check-up before beginning cancer treatment. Radiation to the neck or head and/or chemotherapy may cause problems for your gums and teeth. Treating existing oral health problems before cancer therapy may help prevent or limit tissue damage and oral complications.
