She pointed out the importance of undergoing plaque and tartar cleaning sessions, because the persistence of these deposits in the mouth leads to loosening of the teeth and an increase in the spaces between them.
She stressed that brushing the teeth with brush and paste twice a day is indispensable, but the use of medical floss once a day is also taken into account, to get rid of leftovers stuck in the mouth.
The dentist recommends reducing tea and coffee, avoiding soft drinks, canned juices and citrus fruits, and quitting smoking.
Marwa concluded her speech by referring to the need to maintain the balance of vitamin D in the body, by eating foods rich in it and exposure to sunlight, because its deficiency negatively affects the teeth.
