About  Dentistry

• Clean your teeth after eating by toothbrush and dental floss. Use a correct toothbrush, and brush and floss correctly.
• Don't ignore gums that bleed when you brush or floss or changes in the way your teeth fit together when you bite.
• Ask your dentist about cosmetic options for improving the appearance of teeth that are stained or chipped.
• Don't use tobacco products; they can increase your risk of gum disease and cancer of the mouth and throat.
• Don't chew on hard objects that could crack a tooth.
• Visit the dentist regularly. Periodontal disease of gums is common in adults and in older people. The dentist can remove plaque from teeth, reducing the number of bacteria - a key to helping prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
