Taking care of your teeth is important to your health, and not just your oral health but your overall general health as well.
Cleaning between the teeth is very important, it also very important how you clean between the teeth. But toothpick are not solution. A toothpick should only be used to dislodge large food particles between teeth. It should be used in a way so that the gums or teeth are not harmed. But toothpicks are often used in a way that is not beneficial and damages gum tissue. Your safest bet is to stick with brushing, flossing and rinsing to keep your gums healthy.
While you should brush at least once a day, twice a day is best! The best time to brush is after you eat a meal, and you should also floss at the same time. You need to brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes, making sure to cover all of your teeth.
Avoid using your teeth for anything other than chewing food. If you use them to crack nuts, remove bottle tops or rip open packaging, you risk chipping or even breaking your teeth.
