How to take good care of your teeth

April 19, 2023

Modern materials used for dental treatments can last a long time if you take good care of them and undergo regular preventive examinations at the dentist. According RG.RU Implants are one of the most durable methods of replacing missing teeth. They can be used for decades if properly maintained.

One of the most durable are ceramic fillings. They can serve 10-15 years or more. Composite fillings last a little less – up to 10 years. They are less durable than the previous ones. Metal fillings can last a long time – from 10 to 15 years or more. However, they are less aesthetic.

Caring for your teeth at home is quite simple. You should brush your teeth twice a day. Oral hygiene should be daily, preferably with an irrigator and dental floss.

To brush your teeth, you should use a low-abrasive anti-caries paste, a toothbrush with soft bristles. Rinses are suitable, which freshen breath and reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria. You need to reduce the consumption of simple carbohydrates and sweets, since nutrition affects the acidity of saliva and the condition of the teeth.
