You’re better off avoiding candy and sugary drinks such as soda during the day. Plaque, which is a film of bacteria, constantly forms on your teeth. Sugary foods or drinks cause this bacteria to produce acids that attack tooth enamel, which leads to tooth decay. If you’re going to have a piece of candy, eat it for dessert and then brush your teeth.

Protect Your Lips with SPF Lip Balm
A winning smile has another component other than healthy teeth: Don’t forget about those luscious lips! If you’re spending time in the sun, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends protecting your lips with a sunblock for lips that has an SPF of at least 15. Look for a broad-spectrum product that guards against both UVA and UVB rays.

Does Dental Cleaning Whiten Teeth?
The best place to start your quest for whiter teeth is at your dentist’s office. Routine cleanings (the ADA recommends every six months) can do wonders. A whitening toothpaste also can make a big difference. Look for one that uses a non-bleaching action (the only kind of over-the-counter whitening toothpaste with the ADA Seal of Acceptance).
