What is the Right Way to Floss? Proper flossing removes plaque and food particles in places where a toothbrush cannot easily reach — under the gumline and between your teeth. Because plaque build-up can lead to tooth decay and gum disease, daily flossing is highly recommended. To receive maximum benefits from flossing, use the following proper technique: Starting with about 18 inches of floss, wind most of the floss around each middle finger, leaving an inch or two of floss to work with… [ 217 more words. ]

Why and when are Root Canal Treatments required? Decay of the teeth (cavities) if left untreated, generally progress and gradually destroy a significant portion of the tooth before reaching the ‘pulp’ of the tooth.

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that corrects teeth and jaws that are positioned improperly. Crooked teeth and teeth that do not fit together correctly are harder to keep clean, are at risk of being lost early due to tooth decay and periodontal disease, and cause extra stress on the chewing muscles that can lead to headaches, TMJ syndrome and neck, shoulder and back pain.

When cleaning a partial denture, it’s a good idea to stand over a folded towel or a sink of water just in case you accidentally drop the denture. Do not use toothpaste since it can be too harsh for cleaning dentures. Some people use hand soap or mild dishwashing liquid to clean their dentures, which are both acceptable. However, most household cleaners are too abrasive and should not be used for cleaning dentures. [ 325 more words. ]

In addition to using a toothbrush to clean your teeth, you can improve your mouth's freshness by using a tongue cleaner. Millions of bacteria collect on your tongue, and simply brushing your teeth doesn't remove those bacteria. Tongue bacteria produce volatile sulfur compounds, which can cause bad breath. The bacteria may also have the potential to cause other health issues. [ 422 more words. ]
