The Facts of Oral Hygiene: Cavity Prevention

Protecting your teeth against cavities begins with every ingredient you place in your mouth, most specifically the meals you eat daily. Cavity prevention is made possible with healthy eating habits. For a list of suggestions, here are a few tips about cavity prevention:

If you have a cavity, likely it has been caused by a break in your oral health care routine. It may also be possible that the cavity was caused as the result of physical trauma to a tooth, which cracked the enamel and left a tooth exposed. Nonetheless, treating a cavity means you must increase your oral health care maintenance.

The first thing you should do is check your brushing and flossing habits and ensure they are effective and being done efficiently. Consult your dentist about proper brushing and flossing techniques. Make an effort to brush your teeth at least twice daily and floss once daily.

Another useful method to use against cavities is to schedule bi-annual professional cleanings. Your dentist can ensure your teeth are being cleaned effectively, as well as provide their own professional cleaning to adequately protect your teeth.
