Question:

What should one do in one day to have the best dental health?

I brush twice a day and use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash twice a day. I also floss every other day and sometimes I use salt water as a mouthwash.

I don't use listerine because it gave me thrush. Plus the hydrogen peroxide works alot better. It kills bacteria, whitens, and it makes your breath smell great. Thrush: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/candidiasis...


Answers:

Brush after every meal. Don;t let the bacteria get started.
Floss once a day. 24 hours is how long it takes for the second layer to form on teeth.
If you use hydrogen peroxide for a while, the papilla of the tongue will hypertrophy. Not a good thing. Salt water is fine.
Mouthwashes do dot help much. The bacteria multiply to former levels so quickly that there is not time enough to do good. On the other hand, most do not hurt anything.
Reduce sugars. Carbohydrates are the substrate that bacteria need. If there is no substrate, there can be no problem.
