How can I rebalance my oral bacteria?
- Brush twice a day: Use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled brush to brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time. Make sure to brush all surfaces of your teeth and tongue.
- Floss daily: Flossing removes plaque and bacteria from between your teeth and below the gum line, where your toothbrush can’t reach. Make sure to floss at least once a day.
- Use mouthwash: Rinse your mouth with an antibacterial mouthwash to help kill bacteria and freshen your breath.
- Eat a healthy diet: A healthy diet that is low in sugar and processed foods can help promote a healthy oral microbiome.
- Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help flush bacteria and food particles from your mouth.
Regular dental checkups at our office can ensure that your oral microbiome is in good shape. We can also provide personalized advice on how to rebalance your oral bacteria.

FAQ about rebalancing oral bacteria
Why is rebalancing oral bacteria important?
When oral microbiome is imbalanced, harmful bacteria can thrive, leading to dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. You can prevent these issues by rebalancing the oral bacteria and promoting a healthier mouth.
Can rebalancing oral bacteria improve my overall health?
Yes! Your mouth is the gateway to your digestive system, and maintaining a balanced oral microbiome can improve digestion and support overall health. Additionally, a strong immune system can help protect against infections and diseases.
How long does it take to rebalance oral bacteria?
It varies for each individual, but it generally takes a few weeks to a few months to rebalance oral bacteria. Consistency in practicing good oral hygiene habits and making healthy lifestyle choices is key to maintaining a healthy oral microbiome.
