If you want to maintain a beautiful and healthy smile for a long time, you need to give up habits that spoil the condition of your teeth.

This statement was made by specialist Olga Glushkova during a conversation with representatives of the publication “ Lenta.ru ”.

As the doctor noted, smoking and alcohol abuse are the main habits that harm teeth.

At the same time, the unpleasant smell can be called a trifle when compared to the main problem.

According to Glushkova, cigarettes and alcohol provoke tooth decay, immune problems, and even lip or tongue cancer.

Also, the habit of eating unhealthy foods has a negative impact on the condition of your teeth.

We are talking about candies, marinades, sweet drinks. After all, they contain a lot of sugar and acids, which corrode enamel.

Glushkova also reminded about "chewing laziness", when a person begins to choose soft food that does not require chewing. As a result, plaque, caries, periodontitis appear, and the bite deteriorates.
