It may also be because you’ve been skipping on your dental checkup, which should be done at least once a year even if you do not have any current issues. Better safe than sorry.
That’s why it’s so important to maintain optimal dental and oral hygiene.
Here are some useful tips for you:
- Use a good toothpaste and high-quality toothbrush to give your teeth a thorough brushing at least twice per day. By ‘high-quality toothbrush’ we mean the soft, nylon kind with polished and rounded bristles.
- Make sure to hold the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle against the lining of your gums
- It’s also crucial to brush your tongue as it too may provide an ideal gathering place for nasty bacteria, which in turn contributes to the buildup of plaque, among other problems which may arise
- Make use of dental floss on a regular basis, don’t underestimate its potential in cleaning your gums and teeth
In addition to practicing these tips, you can also try some healthy home remedies for plaque buildup. Since tartar is rather difficult to remove after it has already mineralized, it’s best to prevent it from ever building up in the first place. In other words, even if you don’t have any plaque at the moment, it’s still advisable to try some of the following remedies in order to hinder its possible appearance in the future.
