Finding the right way to Brush in Leeds

Wednesday, November 13th, 2013

297243_blogYou may well get a little fed up in Leeds with dentists and TV adverts banging on about the necessity of oral hygiene, but if you ignore the warnings, you could find yourself in serious trouble, ending in tooth decay and gum disease; and this could also cost a lot of money to get over. Your oral hygiene is essential for preventing these problems and the most essential tool that you need is a toothbrush. Now it may take some time to find the right one but please persevere, because brushing well can save your teeth from bacteria, acids and plaque. Bristle strengths vary, so you may well have to try a few out first until you find the type that does the job, yet doesn’t damage your gums. With this in the bag, it is time to choose a toothbrush and there are lots to go for. Electric brushes are starting to supersede hand held ones because they are tremendously efficient; they come with different actions, some even fire jets of water that will remove food debris from below the gum-line and from between the teeth, but most important of all, they will keep plaque, tartar and bacteria away from the surfaces of your teeth. Finally, learn how to wield your brush correctly so that you acquire the best cleaning technique that you can; if you have doubts, always turn to your dentist for advice.

How to have a happy Heart with your Oral Hygiene in Leeds

748875_blogFor some people in Leeds, the daily routine of brushing your teeth can come as a bit of a chore, but it imperative that you keep this ‘chore’ going at least twice a day. You must get a good brush, paste, floss and mouthwash, and make sure you learn to use them correctly. You also have your dentist to back you up in times of need: your dentist can also help you on subjects of diet, even help you give up smoking and offer tips on how to care for your mouth. So, you may ask, why all of this fuss? Well, sit down and take note: plaque is one of the biggest agitators that are ready to strike on a daily basis in your mouth and if it gets through unchecked, you will soon find yourself dealing with tooth decay and then gum disease. Gum disease can be lethal in the long term: it will obviously lead to tooth loss further down the line, but more sinister is the fact that it will start to poison your bloodstream as soon as it takes hold; these foul toxins will then be pumped around your body and deposit themselves in your heart. Over a long period, the heart will become diseased and in the end, fail. Please, please, please, do not take your oral hygiene as being a chore, but see it as part of the jigsaw to having a healthy and long life, as well as a vibrant heart.

Picking the right Toothbrush in Leeds

Monday, October 22nd, 2012

One of the most essential elements in your regime of oral hygiene in Leeds is to get the right toothbrush and though you might think this is an easy choice, getting it wrong can cause damage to your gums and wear away the enamel of your teeth. The strength of the bristles in your brush is an important one and though you may have to go through a few at first in order to get the one for you, it’s worth the trial and error in the beginning. Then you have to learn how to use it: this can be helped by the shape and flexibility of the brush, so again- trial and error. But over the years, there has be huge developments in electric brushes that are brilliant, not only for doing the work for you, but also doing it better than you ever could and they also come in various guises too: Some rotate and some will pulse up and down, others are designed to do special tasks as well, like breaking down the build-up of plaque and tartar around the teeth. But probably one of the most ingenious of all is an electric brush that also fires a jet of water below the gum line for a really thorough clean. Again, with all of these choices, it can get a bit confusing, but you can always talk to your dentist about which direction to go in.
