The holidays have likely taken their toll on your teeth by now, and not just from Christmas through New Years. In a lot of ways, the holidays began back at Halloween. Since then, children and adults have been indulging in excessive amounts of sweet treats and delicious meals. More than just straight sugars have been building up on your teeth as well.
The funny smell when you walk in may make you feel uneasy immediately. And what's with the dentist always trying to have a conversation with you while prodding around in your mouth?
Because that is what the dentist really wants to know. Good dental oral care is not just about the teeth, a person must also remember that their gum health is vitally important to their oral health.
In other words, while avoiding cavities and taking care of one's teeth is essential to provide a person with healthy teeth, one of the main causes of tooth loss is gum disease.
Having knowledge of areas that could use improvement is very beneficial to your oral health. So make sure you brush and floss daily, or even twice a day if you want to receive a gold star.
First, brush morning and night. Brush your teeth right after breakfast and right before you go to bed.
Because gingivitis is the first step in incurring a more serious gum disease, any person who has contracted gingivitis will want to begin immediately to reverse the problem and rid themselves of this potential danger.
The sugars from plaque sit on your enamel and tear into them, causing cavities. Cavities are a small hole that can be safe havens for even more tooth decay.
Dentists recommend avoiding brushing your teeth too hard, because it will ultimately lead to gum bleeding. Over brushing can cause serious gum issues like Gingivitis, the inflammation of gums.
Take care of them by removing that plaque as soon as you can, twice a day should be sufficient. In the interest of getting rid of it right away, consider brushing after every meal.
Not only will plaque cause the formation of cavities, as the bacteria living in plaque excretes tooth decaying acid, but plaque can also transform into tartar. Tartar is hardened plaque that can no longer be removed from teeth by simple brushing and flossing.
Understanding that a trip to a dental office makes many people nervous, we would be more than happy to be your best friend dentist in Newton, KS. However, we understand that friendship is more than someone prodding around in your mouth.
So bring a friend to talk to and calm you down. We just want you to be happy!
A person can both prevent and recover from gingivitis by following the basics of oral health, brushing teeth twice daily and flossing daily. Other preventative measures include using mouth washes to rinse out the mouth and especially by visiting the dentist every six months for a professional cleaning and checkup.
