Dental Health
MISTAKES
You Are Making
By now, you probably already know
the basics of taking care of your teeth.
You may brush and floss on a daily
basis and use mouthwash to keep
your smile bright.
But even as an adult, you could be
making a few dental health mistakes.
Recognizing these errors makes it
possible to correct them before you
harm your teeth.
Rushing
Through
Brushing
Busy mornings can leave you
feeling rushed.
While you feel good knowing you
brushed your teeth, it might
not be enough.
For optimum cleanliness, you need
to brush for a full two minutes.
You also want to make sure that
you are brushing both the inside
and outside surfaces of your teeth.
Try turning your toothbrush so that
you can reach the back of your teeth
with the tip of the head.
Being thorough can turn this
two minute portion of each morning
and evening into one of the most
beneficial parts of your day.
Sipping
On Acidic
or Sugary
Beverages
Keeping a soda on your desk may
help you perk up at work.
Or, you may enjoy slowly sipping
on a glass of wine in the evenings.
Both of these habits can expose your
teeth to acid for long periods of time.
Too much exposure to acid causes
cavities and may make your
teeth yellow.
If you do want a sugary or acidic
beverage, then try to drink it within
a reasonable time frame.
This reduces how long the acids stay
in contact with your teeth.
Once you finish, rinse your mouth
with water to further prevent
acid erosion.
Brushing
Immediately
After Eating
After you eat, your tooth enamel
is slightly weakened from the acid
in your food.
This effect lasts for around
20 to 30 minutes.
If you brush too soon, you risk
removing some of the enamel.
This can lead to tooth sensitivity
and abrasions.
Leave enough time in your schedule
to brush your teeth after waiting
for a half hour after your meals.
Overdoing
Oral Hygiene
As hard as it might be to believe,
you can harm your teeth by overdoing
your oral hygiene routine.
Brushing more often than two
to three times a day could cause
enamel erosion.
You may also irritate your gums
or the soft tissues of your mouth
if you rinse with mouthwash
too frequently.
Assuming
Everything’s
Fine
Your smile looks bright and white
in the mirror.
You are also happy to note that
you are able to eat and drink your
favorite foods without feeling pain.
These are all great signs that you
have good oral health, but they
don’t always tell the whole truth.
Some dental health problems
aren’t detectable by the naked eye.
Early cavities may only be seen
on an x-ray.
Gum disease is also hard to notice
in the early stages.
Regular dental exams are the best way
to check on your oral health.
You only get one set of natural adult
teeth to last a lifetime.
Making an effort to avoid harming
them with incorrect daily habits will
help you preserve your smile.
If you’re unsure if you are taking
good care of your teeth, then just
reach out.
We can help you make the best
choices for caring for your
oral health.
Noble Dental Care is a family-oriented
dental care clinic. Dr. Scott and his
staff care about you and your health.
Give us the opportunity to give you
the smile of your dreams.
