How to take care of your teeth with a correct dental hygiene with Clinicas Udemax
At Clinicas Udemax we carry out dental hygiene, also known as dental cleaning, with which we remove the tartar that is on the tooth above the gums.
This hygiene is commonly performed with state-of-the-art ultrasonic devices, which do not damage or scratch the tooth.
To keep your teeth and gums healthy, you should follow these steps these steps:
- Floss at least once a day. It is best to do this before brushing your teeth. Flossing removes plaque from between the teeth and on the gums.
- Brush your teeth at least twice a day. Brush for two minutes each time.
- Use toothpaste containing fluoride. Fluoride helps to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent tooth decay.
- Change your toothbrush every three to four months.
- Eat a healthy diet. You are less likely to get gum disease if you eat healthy foods.
- Avoid sweets and sweetened drinks. Eating and drinking sweets increases the risk of tooth decay. If you choose to eat or drink sweets, brush your teeth soon after.
- Do NOT smoke. Smokers have more tooth and gum problems than non-smokers. In addition, most dental treatments are less effective in smokers.
- Keep dentures, retainers and other appliances clean. This includes brushing them regularly. You may also need to soak them in a cleaning solution.
- Ask if an electric toothbrush is right for you. They have been shown to clean teeth better than manual toothbrushes.
- Learn how to floss properly. Improper or overly vigorous flossing can cause gum injury.
- Ask if you should use special appliances or tools, such as water irrigation. This can sometimes help supplement (but not replace) brushing and flossing.
- Schedule a dental hygiene at Clinicas Udemax every year. Make an appointment at our dental clinic.
