Please excuse me while I go fix my entire toothbrushing routine...
Going to the dentist can be a daunting experience for some. However, as you get older you quickly learn that it's one of those appointments that you know you can't cancel because it's detrimental to your teeth —and overall health.Whether you're someone who only visits your dentist for your routine cleanings or you're at the dentist often because you need extra work done, there is likely something you're skipping out on or doing too much of when it comes to your teeth.
In order for the fluoride in toothpaste to be effective, it needs to sit on your teeth for at least two minutes after brushing — and not be washed away by water. a dentist at NY Family Dental Arts, agreed and added that you can add mouthwash as the next step after a few minutes or you can rinse with mouthwash at a later time.Similarly, you shouldn't rinse with mouthwash immediately after brushing."This washes away the concentrated fluoride toothpaste that is left on your teeth , thereby weakening its benefits," Dr. Mackie said.
She instead recommends waiting a minimum of 30 minutes after having these types of food and drinks."Waiting prevents the spreading of acids around the mouth, which can accelerate enamel erosion," she added.Dr. Macik emphasized that your diet has an effect on the health of your teeth — including very acidic food or sugary substances .
"Baking soda and charcoal-based products are extremely abrasive to the teeth. While they may show short-term results, the long-term effects can be very damaging. They can actually erode the outer, more protective layer of your tooth," explainedBrushing your teeth is extremely important and while most people know this, they fail to brush with the proper technique. Brushing should consist of small circles for a minimum of two minutes twice a day," added Sedeño.
