Tips to Maintain Dental Health
September 4th, 2010
Plaque on teeth is a layer of thin, sticky, colorless and become a gathering place of germs. When you consume foods that contain lots of sugar, the sugar from these foods would be modified by bacterial germs in dental plaque and produce acids (acid). These acids will damage the lining of the email, make the enamel porous, so that gradually occurs in the tooth holes.
You should limit the consumption of sweet foods throughout the day between meals, morning, noon and night. Remember, each time met with a plaque of sugar, it will enlarge the influence of acid on the teeth.
How to clean the plaque on your teeth?
Brush teeth regularly, especially right after eating. When, not possible to brush your teeth after eating, then make it a habit to rinse with clean water, use clean water, or it could be replaced by eating fruits are watery and fibrous.
Activities should be brushing your teeth at least two times a day: morning after breakfast and at night before bed.
Instead, choose a toothpaste that contains fluoride. Fluor serves to strengthen tooth enamel so it does not easily dissolve in acid.
Perform regular dental check up at least six months. Hopefully, if there is disorder or disturbance in the teeth, gums or mouth, can be detected early.
