Health / 5 Common Oral Hygiene Mistakes by Suntwist: 3:17pm On Jan 19, 2022
HOW TO MAINTAIN ORAL HEALTH
Healthy teeth and mouth are very important. Do you remember this song…

‘This is the way I brush my teeth, brush my teeth, brush my teeth, this is the way I brush my teeth early in the morning’.

How do you brush your teeth? Do you use fluoride toothpaste? What is the condition of your toothbrush? These are questions we would leave you to answer.

When you wake up in the morning one of the things you do is to brush your teeth and the last thing you do at night but not everyone brushes their teeth at night and this is not good at all.

What is the mouth?
The mouth is also called the oral cavity through which food and air enter the body. It is made up of the teeth, tongue, gums, salivary glands, upper and lower jaw, etc.

In this article, we would focus on how to keep your teeth and mouth healthy. You have to keep your mouth clean to avoid tooth decay and mouth odour.

To keep your mouth and teeth healthy you need to brush your teeth twice daily making use of fluoride toothpaste. Tooth brushing prevents plaque from building up on your teeth.

WHAT IS PLAGUE?
Plaque is a film of bacteria that coats your teeth If you don’t brush them properly and it contributes to tooth decay and gum diseases.

When brushing your teeth you should open your mouth and brush all the surfaces of your teeth (inside surfaces, outside surfaces, and the chewing surface of your teeth).

NOTE; Don’t rinse your mouth with water after brushing, this is a mistake most of us make. After brushing, spit out any excess toothpaste. Rinsing your mouth after brushing could wash away the concentrated fluoride in the remaining toothpaste and reduce its preventative effect.

In one of the articles, we talked about a smile, to give a beautiful smile our mouth and teeth must be clean to make the smile an attractive one. Imagine smiling at someone and the person giving an irritating look because of the condition of your teeth, will you be happy?

Here are some mistakes you need to avoid while brushing your mouth;
Brushing your teeth more than twice a day could actually damage the gum and erode the enamel on your teeth.
Not cleaning your tongue; You clean your tongue to avoid bad breath and remove bacteria.
Rinsing your mouth with water after brushing your teeth.
Make use of your toothbrush for a long period of time; Your toothbrush should be used only for three months.
Not brushing your teeth long enough; The time duration of r brushing your teeth should be at least 2 minutes, anything less than 2 minutes is not good enough cause it doesn’t give the fluoride in your toothpaste enough time to attach to the enamel of your tooth.
Always keep your mouth healthy by brushing twice a day and smiling.

Thanks for reading. Please do leave a comment for us if you find this article useful.

Iru can be preserved in many ways; soak it in water, refrigerate it, or when it’s being salted. Some people preserve it by wrapping it in Moi Moi leaves.

Locust beans are of two types

CHRISTMAS !!!

Ding dong merrily on high

In heaven, the bells are ringing…

We’re excited as Christmas is a few days to come. You know there’s this special feeling about Christmas, the beautiful decorations, cool weather, Santa’s gift, shopping and most importantly spending time with family.

Christmas is a time for family reunions, family bonding, renewing friendships, exchanging gifts, and going on holidays. And it’s also a time to wine and dine, there’s something special about the meals prepared on Christmas day they taste way better than meals we prepare on normal days.

For many of us, Christmas also evokes memories of specific smells, sounds, and a feeling of home, like they do say “There is no place like home”. The home is not the building you see home is the family. The home is where the heart is, the heart is where the family lives. Anthony Brandt said “Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.” From our very first minute in this world our family has been there by our side. Whatever we are and whatever we have and will become, our family plays a vital role in it. The importance of family in our life is equivalent to the essence of salt in a food recipe. Its presence is not highlighted very much but its absence makes the dish tasteless, so is our life without family.

Spending Christmas with family, friends and loved ones is the best thing to do.

“Family is the most important thing in the world” __ Princess Diana

Family is everything so much we find it difficult to describe how much they mean to us. A Family is all about being supportive towards each other, family is not meant to hold grudges against each other but instead come together in harmony.

In this season of love, it’s better you leave the past behind, forgive, and let go of any grudges. Go, celebrate Christmas with loved ones.

MERRY CHRISTMAS IN ADVANCE.

Orange Juice…

You’ve most likely heard since you were a child that oranges are an important part of a healthy, balanced diet.

Oranges are lovely fruit that is healthy, tasty, and cheap to get, they originated around 4000 B.C in southeast Asia. Orange is a fruit of the Citrus, Citrus sinensis. Citrus sinensis is known as sweet orange while Citrus Aurantium is known as bitter orange. Oranges are one of the largest citrus fruit in the world which comprise about 60% of the total citrus production in the world. Everything about orange is useful, its peel can be used in making teas and candies.
Oranges are one of the most popular fruits in the world with over 600 varieties worldwide. They are rich in vitamin C, choline, potassium, and dietary fiber. Vitamin C helps to boost our immune system and also protects the inside and outside of our body cells from damages, one orange provides approximately 92% of the recommended daily amount of vitamin C. The fiber helps in controlling blood sugar levels, reducing Hugh’s cholesterol levels, etc.

Now let’s talk about Orange juice…
Orange juice is considered one of the healthiest beverages because of its health benefits such as detoxifying the body, reducing inflammation, helping to lower cholesterol levels, helping to control blood sugar levels, boosting the immune system, etc.

Making Orange juice is easy, it just depends on the method you decide to use.

Manual method; Rinse the orange under running water, clean it with a kitchen tissue. Cut the fruit into halves, remove the seeds then squeeze the orange over a glass to extract the juice. This method could be stressful and cannot be used for a large portion of the orange.
Making use of a juicer; Rinse the orange under running water, clean it with a kitchen tissue. Cut the orange into halves then press the halved orange onto a circulating reamer. Then you have your orange juice.
You see it’s something you can do at home. Don’t forget to get some oranges and treat your family with some natural orange juice.

DON’T GIVE UP

Life may not be pleasant to you

You might have had your share of troubles

Your friends may have abandoned you, family who you thought will be there left you in the lurch

It seems the world is against you no one understands you, there’s no one to talk to

Ahn… It really hurts

Every day you drown in your tears

Your pillow gets soaked with it

You try to scream but can’t find your voice

Nothing is going on right with you

DON’T GIVE UP

Never give up because you can’t do something

Don’t give up because you’ve not gotten to where you envisioned yourself to be

Don’t let failure make you give up

Never think of quitting as an option

Instead, find strength in the failure

Keep trying again and again with all your might

Motivate yourself don’t let the words people say push you to give up

Always believe in yourself

Always look forward

Look at the future



Life is full of mountains, some are big and some are small

But if you don’t give up

You can over them

Giving up can make you feel worse than losing a deal. It could lead to lots of regrets.



NEVER GIVE UP!!
