When I started actually taking care of me teeth there was a night and day difference between dental appointments where I'd not flossed much or at all since the last appointment and just flossing maybe weekly. Upgrading to daily further improved the experience. Flossing really makes the entire dental process suck so much less and is totally worth it. Also setting a timer to make sure you actually brush for 2 minutes can also be helpful, since you might not realize you've been under-brushing
When I did keto I didn't change anything with my routine, but suddenly my dentist is like "You're doing amazing" and I had my first "no notes" checkup. That all went away when I started eating sugar again... really made me realize we go to all this work scraping shit off our teeth that wasn't supposed to be there in the first place and is killing us. But also, frosting.
That was a big change I made when I started taking care of my teeth too was reducing my sugar intake. I now pretty consistently stay below the "recommended daily value" listed on the back of every package every day
