Leonard DiCaprio. Do we really have to elaborate? Well, we don’t have to, but we will. It’s been years since Titanic opened and every woman aged 8 to 150 pledged their undying love to him. This year, however, he has graced us with his presence on the big screen as the Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for his performance in “The Wolf of Wall Street”. Did anyone read the description or did they just stare at his adorable smile for ten whole minutes?

Best Smile Found in an Animated Feature Film

We would have chosen Olaf, the Snowman, but he himself admitted he doesn’t have any bones, ergo, no teeth. That’s why we chose Elsa instead. The beautiful animated beauty may have spent most of the movie moping or hidden in an ice castle, but sooner or later we finally saw her smile. Whose frozen heart wouldn’t melt after seeing her in the whole movie?

New Year, New Teeth, New You!

It’s the start of a New Year for everyone. With the New Year comes New Year’s Resolutions. Are you ready to follow through on yours? If you can’t follow through with the big ones, then start small by taking care of the small things, namely your teeth. Here are some New Year’s Resolutions you can do with your teeth!

STOP SMOKING!

Yes, it’s difficult. However, it’s a good decision in the long run because by the end of the year, you will have a cleaner mouth, stronger teeth and fresher breath! If you can’t do it immediately, find ways on how you can beat that unhealthy habit.

Eat more Fruits and Vegetables

This one is an easier task. All you have to do is rethink what you’re buying at the grocery. If you’re not much of a vegetarian, then you can add some vegetables to your omelette or create delicious fruit smoothies. The vitamins and minerals that you get from fruits and veggies can significantly improve your oral health. Did we forget to mention that eating fruits and vegetables lessens the chance of having bad breath?

Drink Moderately

Although it’s good advice for people who are a little too happy with the bottle, reducing your alcohol intake can help keep your teeth healthy. Alcoholic drinks have a tendency to be too acidic for the environment in your mouth, thereby increasing the chances of enamel erosion. Aside from that people who smoke, eat poorly and consume excessive amounts of alcohol have a greater chance of having increased gum recession or periodontal pocketing.

Brush At Least Twice A Day and Floss At Least Once A Day

Almost everyone does this because of fear of halitosis, but some people are too lazy to pick up dental floss or brush their teeth before going to bed. It’s not such a huge endeavor. Even two year-olds can do it on their own. So keep in mind that brushing twice a day and flossing once a day will keep your teeth healthier and cleaner and lessens the chance of you getting oral diseases.

Go to Your Annual Dental Checkup

For those of you who do not experience a lot of dental problems, foregoing your dental check-up is still a bad idea. You’ll never know what’s hiding beneath your teeth so it is always a good idea to get checked on a regular basis. Getting checked once a year is fine as long as you stick to a pre-assigned schedule. This way, your dentist can check your oral health status and recommend a dental regimen that suits your teeth and gums’ needs.

Celebrities That Used to Wear Braces

They may be the very essence of perfection in our eyes, but even some of the most popular celebrities still needed a little bit of assistance from their friendly neighborhood orthodontists. Just because they live in million-dollar mansions, own their private planes and take a daily bath in their Olympic-sized pools doesn’t mean that they don’t think about their precious pearly whites. Most of them are even known for their Oscar and Grammy-winning smiles.

Niall Horan of One Direction

The most adorable boy band in history has one member that sported braces even while they were touring. Niall Horan recently had his braces removed, which caused a global swooning phenomenon last year. He was adorable with the braces, but he is still a welcome and admittedly gorgeous sight without them.

Why You Should Keep Wearing Retainers After You Get Your Braces Taken Out

Now that you have finally survived wearing your braces for a couple of years, it’s time to take out that trusty retainer and keep it in… until bedtime that is. Many people think that just because their teeth are now neat and straight, they can just forego retainers altogether. Some think it’s just a formality, but it isn’t. Yes, your dental appointments are farther apart now, which means that your orthodontist won’t be keeping tabs on your retainer use; but that only makes it more obvious that you are not taking very good care of your teeth. Do you want to know why it’s necessary to keep your retainers on? Let us explain what retainers are and why you should keep wearing them.

What is a Retainer?

A retainer is a small piece of plastic and metal that is molded to the contours of your upper hard palate and the inner surfaces of your teeth. No two retainers are alike even if they look similar. Most people who have worn braces are prescribed to wear retainers for a while after their braces are taken off.
