Brushing, flossing, disinfecting, and visiting the dentist regularly are all great ways to fight tooth decay and discoloration.<\/p>\n<p><em>Brushing<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Whether you opt for an electric or manual toothbrush doesn&#8217;t really make much of a difference, as long as you use great brushing technique. Still, some brushers prefer ultrasonic toothbrushes which move at a pace of 2.4 million movements per minute, loosening plaque a little easier.<\/p>\n<p><em>Flossing<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Until WWII, dental floss was made from silk, though today we use nylon floss. Dentists recommend flossing once a day at least to remove plaque and food from between the teeth where they can cause decay and discoloration.<\/p>\n<p><em>Rinsing<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Antibacterial rinses can be instrumental in the fight against tooth decay. It was discovered by Dr. Paul Keyes in 1960 that tooth decay is caused primarily by a strain of bacteria known as Streptococcus Mutans. Rinses can fight that bacteria reducing tooth decay. Some rinses can even help whiten teeth.<\/p>\n<p><em>Regular Check Ups<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In 2010, 79% of children between two and 17 and 60% of adults between 18 and 64 had visited the dentist in the past year. Regular visits are important to the prevention of decay, as they allow dentists to repair any damage and provide feedback about dental hygiene regimens, as well as conduct a deep cleaning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Restoring Beautiful Smiles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Restorative dentists, found in both cosmetic and family dentistry, will conduct in office teeth whitening procedures that can whiten teeth up to eight shades in only 45 minutes. This process removes stains and eliminates yellowing through the use of a peroxide gel cured with UV light. Teeth whitening procedures aren&#8217;t permanent, so you&#8217;ll still need to use the tips above to maintain your bright smile, but they do provide a great new beginning. On average, teeth whitening costs around $300, but many will argue that this cost is, at the very least, comparable to the amount spend on at home procedures. It&#8217;s hardly surprising, as <a href=\"http:\/\/psychology.wikia.com\/wiki\/Dental_phobia\" Title=\"Dental implants eugene oregon\">cosmetic dentistry costs<\/a> tend to be high. <\/p>\n<p>Investing in a brighter smile isn&#8217;t just inventing in better dental health. It&#8217;s investing in a stronger social asset. Talk to your dentist today about taking advantage of teeth whitening procedures and getting a brand new start with your smile. <a href=\"http:\/\/salemdentist.com\" Title=\"See more on the topic of Restorative dentist\">Continue your research here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caring for your teeth is an important part of your physical as well as your social health.
