Top 3 Most Important Dental Health Tips You’ll Ever Hear
Brushing, flossing, and regular visits to a reputable dentist prevent oral health diseases that
could require emergency dental care if untreated.
(firmenpresse) - There is nothing more unpleasant than being around someone whose oral hygiene is non-existent;
bad breath, a white tongue, discoloration, and tartar build-up on the teeth can be very
disconcerting. Proper care of your teeth and mouth isn’t only important for your physical
appearance and how you present yourself to people, it is essential for good health and general
well-being. You can adopt many methods to maintain good oral hygiene, including regular visits to
a reputable dentist to attend to your needs, and emergency dental care if necessary.
We usually learn how to properly care for our teeth at a young age, either from our parents,
teachers, our dentists, or even commercials on TV. However, it seems as though sometimes the
lessons may wash off with age, considering the alarming number of adults experiencing dental health
problems due to a lack of good oral hygiene.
In this article, we will discuss the three heroes of oral hygiene: brushing, flossing, and
regular visits to the dentist.
Brushing
Daily consumption of food and drinks, together with digestive enzymes, produce plaque and
bacteria that form on your teeth, below the gumline, and on the tongue. Without proper brushing,
you can experience diseases that include gingivitis, toothache, cavities, and periodontal diseases,
which may warrant emergency dental care in their severity. The correct way to brush your teeth is
as follows:
Using fluoride toothpaste, brush the upper and lower outer surfaces of your teeth, twice a day,
going tooth by tooth.
Brush below the gumline by tilting your toothbrush at 45oC in a back-and-forth motion
without applying excessive force.
Still tilting your toothbrush at 45oC, brush the inner upper and lower parts of the tooth in
a back-and-forth motion.
Clean the chewing surface to get rid of the food trapped there. In addition, brush your
tongue for fresher breath.
Flossing
The bristles of your toothbrush cannot penetrate between your teeth; hence, after brushing and
rinsing, you should also floss between those hard-to-reach places. Flossing removes plaque and
prevents gingivitis. If not removed, it can harden to form tartar and, in its severity, tartar
may cause toothache problems, loose teeth, and tooth loss requiring emergency dental care. You can
follow these tips:
Wrap a piece of floss around the middle fingers of both hands and then grip it between your
thumbs and index fingers.
Gently floss between your teeth below the gum line, without applying excessive force that
can harm your gums. Curve your floss as you move from tooth to tooth to clean on the sides.
You can choose from a variety of floss, depending on your needs. There is water floss that
sprays water in between your teeth, or tiny brushes, and you can also even get a floss holder if
you can’t grip the string properly.
Regular visits to the dentist
Routine check-ups and professional cleaning with a reputable dentist prevents a lot of oral
diseases mentioned and helps identify and mitigate issues early on. In addition, if you are at high
risk of tooth decay and gum disease because of other medical conditions, your dentist will provide
methods for better dental care. The recommendation is to visit a dentist once every six months.
This is why you should visit a dentist as recommended:
Professional cleaning: this involves the removal of built-up tartar and plaque below
the gumline to prevent gingivitis, bad breath, cavities, and many other things that could need
emergency dental care if left untreated.
Dental examination: examination of all parts contributing to oral health to check
their conditions and look for early signs of disease.
X-rays: Further examination that can identify unnoticeable problems such as
abscesses, cysts, damaged jawbones, etc.
To maintain good oral hygiene for better health, brushing and flossing are essential. In
addition, a visit with a reputable dentist takes dental care to a whole new level with professional
cleaning, dental examination, and x-rays. Therefore, the importance of developing a good
relationship with an oral health practitioner cannot be stated enough; your doctor becomes your
ally in good times and bad, particularly when you need emergency dental care.
