Happy National Fresh Breath Day from all of us at Sala Family Dentistry in Reno, NV! There’s nothing quite like the confidence that comes from knowing your breath is fresh and minty all day long. To help you achieve that crisp, clean feeling, we’re sharing seven fabulous tips that will keep your mouth feeling fresh and your smile sparkling. Let’s dive in!

TIP #1: Brush Twice Daily!

The foundation of fresh breath starts with regular brushing. Make sure to brush your teeth twice a day, morning and night, for at least two minutes each time. Use a fluoride toothpaste to help fight cavities and strengthen your enamel.

TIP #2: Floss Twice Daily!

Don’t forget to floss! Flossing twice a day removes food particles and plaque from between your teeth where your toothbrush can’t reach. This not only helps prevent bad breath but also maintains healthy gums.

TIP #3: Use CloSYS Mouthwash

For added protection against bacteria and bad breath, use CloSYS mouthwash. It’s gentle, alcohol-free, and helps neutralize the compounds that cause bad breath, giving you long-lasting freshness.

TIP #4: Use a Tongue Scraper Daily

Your tongue can harbor bacteria that contribute to bad breath. Using a tongue scraper daily helps remove these bacteria, leaving your mouth cleaner and your breath fresher.

TIP #5: Schedule Regular Check-Ups with Your Dentist

A healthy mouth starts with regular dental check-ups. At Sala Family Dentistry, we ensure your teeth and gums are in top shape, catching any issues early before they become problems. A professional cleaning can remove stubborn plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing can’t.

TIP #6: Stay Hydrated

Hydration is key to maintaining fresh breath. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps keep your mouth moist, washes away food particles, and stimulates saliva production—your mouth’s natural defense against bad breath.

TIP #7: Snack on Crunchy Fruits and Veggies

Nature provides some of the best tools for fresh breath. Snacking on crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples and celery helps clean your teeth naturally. These foods stimulate saliva production and scrub your teeth, acting like nature’s toothbrushes.
