If a lot of you were being honest in central Leeds, you probably expect the dentist to bail you out of trouble if something goes wrong in your mouths and they’re only to willing to do so. But what you would imagine, is they must get pretty well fed up when they see that you have made no effort at all to look after your own teeth at home and it’s not like the opportunity isn’t being laid on a plate for you, what with all the products on the market to help you out. It starts with a good brush and toothpaste that suit you and any condition you may have in your mouth. Okay, you don’t always get it right at first but it’s important to persevere until you do. Then there are dental flosses to help back up the brushing process, as they can reach into the areas that you and your brush can’t. The important factor here is that you are removing any bits of food that may be stuck deep between the teeth and avoiding any build of bacteria and plaque. Then you should take advantage of using a mouthwash for extra protection. This should be enough to stave off any major problems until your next check-up. Once you get into a routine of doing this at least twice a day, it should become as natural as putting your clothes on. But most important, you should see yourself and your dentist as allies, two people that work in unison and that are in it together to protect the health of your mouth and body.
