acid wear<\/a> if teeth are brushed right after being exposed to them.<\/p>\nIncreased Fluid Intake<\/h2>\n
Most of us know that we should increase our fluid intake when we have a cold. Some patients resort to having orange juice or other types of fruit juices instead of water. As a result, the high sugar content in these drinks will increase the risk of developing dental decay. Remember to rinse your mouth vigorously with water after having sweet drinks.<\/p>\n
Cold Mixes \/ Home Remedies<\/h2>\n
In addition to using lozenges, taking pills and taking medicine in liquid form, there are many home remedies to try. Some remedies include mixing various items such as honey, lemon, ginger in fluids form to be consumed. Sometimes the consistency of the liquids can be thick and viscous which makes it stick around in the mouth longer. Again, it is important to rinse your mouth with water after consuming medication or remedies in liquid form, especially if they are thick.<\/p>\n
After the cold has passed, it is a good idea to change your toothbrush or toothbrush head if you are using an electric toothbrush. This will help to prevent some of the bacteria from entering the body again. Follow these tips the next time you have to deal with an unfortunate cold to ensure that your teeth stay healthy.<\/p>\n
