Thanks to better at-home care and in-office dental treatments, more people than ever before are keeping their teeth for a lifetime. Although some diseases and conditions can make dental disease and tooth loss more likely, most of us have a good deal of control over whether we keep our teeth into old age.
The most important thing you can do to maintain good oral health is to brush and floss your teeth regularly.
Most mouth woes are caused by plaque, that sticky layer of microorganisms, food particles and other organic matter that forms on your teeth. Bacteria in plaque produce acids that cause cavities. Plaque also leads to periodontal (gum) disease, a potentially serious infection that can erode bone and destroy the tissues surrounding teeth.
The best defense is to remove plaque daily before it has a chance to build up and cause problems. Brushing removes plaque from the large surfaces of the teeth and, if done correctly, from just under the gums. Flossing removes plaque between teeth. So for proper maintenance of oral hygiene, following steps are required:
- Brushing your teeth
- Flossing in between your teeth
- Cleaning your tongue
- Using a good mouthwash
So basically if a person follows a stringent oral hygiene routine, it is possible to avoid most, if not all, the diseases that can cause the loss of teeth. Stay tuned for further information on these techniques or
