Are you taking care of your teeth?

HELLO!


Thought this would be a good time, after Halloween, to discuss dental care.
Not too many of you are aware  I was in the Dental field since sweet  sixteen, and a Lab Technician; I've been hearing so many complaints of dental caries and staining of the teeth, lately.
Here are a few tips to follow-

The effects of poor dental care can range from tooth decay to gingivitis, and even to more serious problems like periodontitis; tooth and bone loss. In fact, 1 in 2 adults has gingivitis, and may not even know it. Fortunately, proper dental care, including cleaning teeth correctly and regularly, can help prevent most of these problems.

If you don't clean your teeth well every day, you're putting yourself at risk for tooth decay; period.

 Signs of decay include visible holes in your teeth, pain when you bite and sensitive gums and  feelings of pain in your teeth.
When the carbohydrates in the food and drinks that you consume aren't cleaned from the teeth regularly, they provide fuel for cavity-causing bacteria. These bacteria can start forming plaque on teeth soon after eating, so if you're a frequent snacker, you may want to clean your teeth more often than twice a day. The truth is, bacteria are almost always present in the mouth, and frequent cleaning—and limiting sugary foods—may help prevent decay.

Cleaning your teeth often and using dental washes, floss and  a waterpick massage, can help remove the plaque from your teeth -
and help prevent the build-up of plaque bacteria in your mouth.Tooth staining teas, (stain teeth more than coffee),  believe me, that was an eye opener! all berries, red sauces, red wine,  and artifical soda and food dyes stain the teeth, rinse right away just after, and use a straw  to avoid  permanent staining.
