El Nino often has devastating consequences in East Africa, a region already hit by repeated climate shocks
> Brush your tooth thoroughly: Dentists recommend taking between two and three minutes to brush every time, ensuring all surfaces are covered on both the upper and lower levels of teeth. Failure to do so might mean that bacteria is left behind, which could lead to gingivitis or periodontitis.
> Floss Daily: Using a slow-paced and gentle sawing motion, grasping the string between the thumb and forefinger. Make sure to use fresh sections of floss string as you move between teeth.
> Limit intake of acidic drinks and sugary food: Be wary of drinking too many soft drinks and fruit juice, as the acid can soften tooth material and can eventually dissolve minerals in tooth enamel, causing cavities or caries.
> Be careful of what you eat: Sugary, highly acidic, sticky, chewy, or very hard foods can all have detrimental effects on one's teeth. If you must eat such things, do so in moderation.
> Don't smoke: Tobacco is a leading cause of dental disorders in the UAE. Tobacco, in any form, increases the risk of gum disease, and experts warn that smokers are twice as likely to develop gum disease than non-smokers.
