Happy New Year! Now is a great time to take care of things
that really matter, like your teeth and gums.
Good oral care is part of a healthy lifestyle. You can help
prevent cavities and gum disease by routine daily teeth cleaning, good eating
habits and regular dental visits.What causes tooth decay and gum disease?
Your teeth are covered with a sticky film of bacteria called
plaque. These bacteria convert the sugar in the foods you eat into acids. This
plaque, if left in contact with teeth, damages the teeth and the gums. The acid
breaks down the enamel causing cavities, while the bacteria irritate the gums,
making them swell and bleed.
Swollen and bleeding gums, also known as gingivitis, are the
early signs of gum disease. This early stage is reversible by professional
dental cleaning and good oral hygiene at home. If left untreated, the gums pull
away from the teeth creating pockets which are harder to clean and get infected.
Bacteria in the pockets enter the bone surrounding the teeth and destroy it, making
teeth become loose and fall out.
By brushing and flossing you will remove most of the plaque and bacteria. Any plaque left on the teeth will eventually harden into tartar, and can only be removed professionally by your dentist or hygienist during your routine dental visits.

Eating diet plans is essential for healthier teeth. Sweets and candies contains a lot of sugar, which causes dental cavaties, and unhealthy meals like chips is full of starchy foods, which can stick to teeth. It's best to avoid consuming on unhealthy meals and sweets to help keep your teeth cleaner and healthier. It's also a wise decision to cut down on consuming between meals, as harmful bacteria can build up after consuming. Brushing within 20 moments of consuming is also recommended, as this can avoid harmful bacteria from turning into tartar and causing corrosion.
