minutes each time. An electric toothbrush can be particularly useful in
removing plaque from the gums, which can help improve gum health.

Floss your teeth at least once a day. Daily flossing is important because
it removes plaque that you can't reach with the bristles of your toothbrush,
particularly plaque that builds up on the sides of the teeth and in the trough
between your teeth and gums. It's in those areas that bacteria such as P.
gingivalis accumulate. If left unchecked, oral bacteria can lead to chronic
inflammation and potential tooth loss.

You also should get a professional dental cleaning and checkup at least
once a year, including annual oral X-rays to assess the health of your teeth
and the bone that supports them. An annual exam enables your dental
provider to identify oral health concerns when they are still in the early
stages and can be more easily managed and treated.

A new reason to quit smoking calls
for new ways to quit too

(NAPSI)—While you may already be aware of the many
reasons to stop smoking, vaping, and chewing—from health
risks (like heart disease, cancer and other illnesses) to the
increasing cost of these products. Whatever your reason for
quitting, here are six tips that can help you stick to your quit:

1.Keep trying. Everyone has one thing in common:
hitting a few bumps along the way. Keep trying; it takes most
people several attempts.

2.Stay positive. Focus on the benefits of quitting and what you’re
gaining instead of what you’re giving up. Write these down to remind
yourself.

3.Reach out. Connect with friends and family to share your goals—
and your struggles. They can help you stay strong and remind you of your
reasons for quitting. You don’t have to go it alone.

4.Relax. Relaxing may be more difficult these days if you’re out of
your typical routine or not able to see friends and family as often. Try
reading, talking on the phone, taking deep breaths, getting outside or
practicing yoga.

5.Stay active. You may be sticking around the house more these days,
but that doesn’t mean you have to be inactive—try going for a walk,
riding your bike, or doing an at-home workout. Doing something that gets
you moving helps clear your mind and makes it easier to deal with new
challenges. Start small and keep moving until you feel better.

6.Fuel your body. Find the right mix of foods—including treats—to
keep yourself full of energy. Try different recipes to find something that’s
both healthy and tasty.

Interested in more helpful tips and free resources to quit smoking,
vaping or using smokeless tobacco? Call 1-800-QUIT-NOW for
judgement-free support.

January 7, 2021

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Every journey begins with a single step. In the upcoming week,
friends or loved ones might distract you or provide an excuse to put off important tasks. You could

make headway by focusing on a career opportunity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You and a companion could be working on different goals during the
first half of the week. Instead of trying to grab their attention, be mindful. If someone needs to
focus, leave them to it until their project is complete.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Use your command of kind and gentle words to create peace of mind

and bring others closer. In the week to come you might arrive at a conclusion about how to enjoy
lasting financial prosperity and tranquility.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you initiate a new plan under these stars, you might stay firmly con-
nected to it. Once you get started on something, you should find the ideas and momentum needed

to challenge yourself and accomplish a goal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Dream big, work hard and you might find that you can accomplish what-

ever you want in the upcoming week. Although your natural instinct is to be sociable, try to stay
focused and follow through on your tasks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you run into major roadblocks, be strong and don't give up. Find
ways around them. In the week ahead, you could use the same technique to handle everyday prob-

lems. Focus on being resourceful and creative.
