Taking care of your health, your body is often placed in the background of our daily lives or even sometimes forgotten very often to the detriment of your well-being. Only pain or fatigue are reminded that taking care of yourself is essential in the long term. Teeth are no exception to this rule, quite the contrary. Being able to cause significant pain and disturbances, neglecting your teeth is a risk that it is absolutely not advisable to follow. Sought daily, our teeth must undergo very special attention and oral hygiene in line with their use to avoid any premature deterioration of the teeth and gums.
Take care of your oral hygiene
Oral hygiene is one of those small, simple daily gestures that should not be neglected, Even if you do not feel any discomfort in your teeth, that you have no particular history in terms of of your teeth, it is imperative to respect a strict hygiene of your teeth. For people who are more sensitive or already subject to multiple cavities or interventions, it is all the more important to respect this oral hygiene to the letter. On the aesthetic level, it is also to ensure whiter teeth and therefore a prettier smile and of course pleasant breath.
Several basic rules must therefore be followed to the letter to ensure the best oral hygiene possible. Advice and rules which can also be confirmed or modified by your usual dentist. First of all, brushing your teeth is essential. Brushing your teeth twice a day is a minimum with a brushing time of three minutes, if possible. It is also important to choose the right toothbrush and to respect a thorough brushing so as not to forget any tooth. For lunch, where it is always the most difficult to brush your teeth, a sugar-free chewing gum of course can be used. Finally, do not forget to consult your dentist regularly, at least once a year, to take stock of your teeth and your brushing habits. For children and adolescents, there is even an oral prevention examination set up by the government and completely free.
Solutions for your teeth
Despite impeccable oral hygiene, many of us are or will be affected by dental problems. Severely put to the test every day and subject to the vagaries of life (accident, shock, for example), our teeth are irremediably affected by the effects of time and prolonged use. With age, problems can arise, but fortunately many solutions exist. First, if only one tooth is affected (significant decay, for example), a dental crown can be placed to replace the damaged tooth, which will then be devitalized. The crown differs from the bridge, which purely and simply replaces the tooth.
For more serious problems, a dental prosthesis may be a wise choice following the loss of several teeth. Total or partial, a dental prosthesis, often removable, is an ideal solution for people who have lost teeth. Made to measure, the denture replaces all or part of the teeth, so it offers many advantages. Totally invisible at first, it gives you back your smile. It also makes it possible to pronounce certain sounds for which the tongue must rest on the front teeth. Last but not least, it lets you enjoy all the foods you want. Some people can accumulate even minor dental problems but delay the consultation because of the phobia of the dentist and can therefore aggravate their worries.
Nevertheless, the installation of a dental prosthesis requires time for the patient to adapt. On the one hand, the placement of a “foreign” object in the body is disturbing at first and can lead to excessive salivation or some pain, for example. The fear of a sudden detachment of the prosthesis can also cause discomfort during the first times, nevertheless and thanks to the latest glues or adhesives for dentures, the maintenance of the prosthesis is particularly effective. It is also advisable to gradually adapt your diet following the installation of a dental prosthesis. Start with liquid or soft foods and then more and more rigid to gradually familiarize yourself with your dentures. Finally, as with teeth, daily hygiene is essential for your prosthesis. So you will have to clean it with a toothbrush then place it overnight in a specific cleaning solution.
To avoid or delay dental problems, it is therefore obviously advisable to practice rigorous oral hygiene on a daily basis. You will also find many practical sheets on this subject on the website of the French Union for Oral Health (UFSBD). Despite all your efforts, you may be forced to have a crown or dental prosthesis, but be aware that innovations in this sector allow people who have recourse to it to continue to live perfectly normally and to benefit from all foods. made available to them.
