During the Christmas season, the teeth had to endure a lot:wine, cookies, chocolate – all real sugar bombs. These things are problematic for the health of our teeth and we want to do a lot for a beautiful smile. Here we give four tips for healthy teeth
Who wants to forego sweets? Fortunately, you don't have to! For healthy teeth it is not so important how many cookies you have eaten – but how often. By consuming sugar, you feed the bacteria in your own mouth, creating acids that erode tooth enamel. Human saliva takes about 30 minutes to neutralize the acids again. So it's better to grab something just once and then give your teeth a break.
The absolute basis for healthy teeth is brushing your teeth twice a day. Unfortunately, not everyone does. So a New Year's resolution would be to brush your teeth twice a day, floss and rinse once a day.
Who likes going to the dentist? However, the more often you go, the less uncomfortable the treatments are in most cases. You should have your teeth cleaned every six months, with the dentist also checking the health of your teeth.
Many people need more than one crown, filling or bridge over the course of their lives, which can quickly become a significant cost factor. Additional health insurance often only reimburses part of the costs of the dentist, so additional dental insurance can be useful. Costs are often covered to a certain extent by additional dental insurance.
