Good Oral Care

According to the Singapore Ministry of Health (MOH), good oral hygiene will help to prevent problems before they develop. Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss at least once a day. Gum irritation often comes from aggressive tooth-brushing, so use a soft-bristled toothbrush and replace it every few months.

Finally, don't neglect regular dental cleanings; professionals have the tools to thoroughly remove the material that causes gingivitis.
