one
Flossing is good for the gaps in between
No, say dentists. It is better to brush every day with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. However, if you have periodontitis or fillings, daily interdental care is mandatory. However, dental floss is only beneficial for the front teeth. Interdental brushes are beneficial for molars.
2
Electric toothbrushes are better than manual toothbrushes
NO. But electric brushing can make dental care easier, especially if you wear braces, have periodontitis, or your hands are not very mobile. Sonic toothbrushes are often recommended. They also have a “hydrodynamic effect”: the foam is pushed into the voids, which removes more plaque.
3
Long brushing with stiff bristles improves the result
NO. Hard bristles can irritate gums and damage tooth structure. Therefore, use soft bristles.
4
You should brush your teeth immediately after every meal
NO. The purpose of brushing your teeth is to remove plaque. However, this does not have to happen right after a meal. Some experts even recommend brushing your teeth before eating because this eliminates bacteria that release cavity-causing acids as you eat.
5
It won’t be so tragic if you skip brushing your teeth in the evening
Only conscientious tooth brushers are allowed to do this. If they go to bed without cleaning, they do not risk any harm. If you are on the move, you can chew sugar-free gum. This causes more saliva to flow, which helps neutralize acids that promote tooth decay.
6
Sugar is the most harmful to teeth
Sugar may increase the risk of tooth decay. Oral hygiene and the question of how well the teeth are supplied with fluoride also play a role. Acids are also harmful. They are found in a variety of foods.
7
Salt whitens teeth
This is true. However, you should not use it because its corrosive effect is very strong. It is better to have your teeth professionally cleaned regularly.
