Prevention
Preventive dentistry, as the name suggests, is the practice of keeping your teeth healthy and prevent it from any germ or infection. General problems associated with oral health would include tooth decay, gum diseases, enamel wear out, etc. and to prevent them from occurring, preventive dentistry can prove to be helpful.
Some standard practices of preventive dentistry would include brush teeth properly twice daily, flossing between the teeth, eating healthy and diet and visiting the dentist at least twice a year to ensure the condition of the oral health. From children to adults, following a proper dental routine would help everyone to get a cleaner and stronger teeth.
What is the best preventative cares?
Brushing teeth daily
One of the most important preventative care is brushing teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste approved by the American Dental Association (ADA). The toothbrush should be replaced 3 – 4 times a year. With teeth, we should brush or tongue too, which helps in removing bacteria from the mouth and freshen the breath.
Flossing daily
We at Best Choice Family & Cosmetic Dentistry recommend our patient to do flossing daily. It is essential to clean tight spaces between the teeth, and floss helps in it. Metal braces can also clean with the help of flossing regularly.
Regular check-ups
It is essential to visit a specialist at least twice a year for regular checkups. This way, the problem can be detected at the initial stage, which reduces the damage or risk and makes resolution quick and easy. Plus, here at Best Choice Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we provide professional dental clean up at every visit and the exams.
Balance diet
One of the significant preventative care of oral care is a balanced diet. It helps to protect your teeth by providing them with the nutrients they need. Limiting sugar and carbohydrates intake, drinking plenty of water, and taking varieties of vitamins helps in preserving natural teeth and gums for long.
