Tartar: The Root of Many Dental Problems

The formation of cavities, tooth decay, gum disease, and even the loss of teeth can all be triggered by tartar buildup. Because of this, you need to have an understanding of what tartar is and why it is necessary to prevent its accumulation.

At the office of Dr. Motiwala Dental Clinic & Implant Centre, our knowledgeable staff are experts at identifying dental concerns as well as delivering the treatment that is required to maintain outstanding oral health. This allows us to provide our patients with the care they need to keep their mouths in pristine condition. Your care and comfort are our top considerations, and we will spend as much time as you require answering each of your questions and explaining the various treatment options available to you.

Mouths everywhere are infected with microorganisms, including yours. Even persons who are very careful with their dental hygiene won’t be able to avoid getting them. Plaque on teeth is the result of bacteria interacting with food particles, proteins, and other debris in the mouth. This sticky film penetrates your gum line and eats away at the enamel on your teeth. When plaque is allowed to build up, it eventually turns into tartar, which is also known as calculus, and it spreads across each tooth. Tartar can be removed from teeth only by a dentist.

Take solace in the knowledge that tartar can be prevented from forming by removing plaque from your teeth before it hardens into tartar.

It is recommended that you brush your teeth at least twice a day for a total of at least two minutes each time. A hurried or disorganized discussion is not going to cut it.

Make sure you’re using a toothbrush with gentle bristles and a head that’s the right size for your mouth. If you have small arches and a large head, then most of your dental real estate will just be skimmed over. Also, make sure you reach behind each tooth carefully and work your way around to the rear molars.

How about by hand or by machine? Determine the kind of toothbrush that you feel most at ease using and go with it. No matter which one you choose, however, it is required to bear the American Dental Association’s (ADA) stamp of approval. This indicates that it has satisfied the ADA’s stringent requirements for both quality and safety.

The kind of toothpaste that you use is another factor that plays a significant influence. Use one that has the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval, contains fluoride, and focuses on tartar control.

If you don’t use dental floss, it won’t matter how good you are at controlling tartar with your toothbrush because a portion of your efforts will be wasted. It is the most effective method for removing plaque from in between your teeth as well as underneath your gums. In addition, flossing removes food particles, which are one of the primary causes of plaque formation in the first place. And if you really want to “go for the gold,” before you brush your teeth, use a water flosser to remove any remaining debris from your mouth beforehand.

The warm and welcoming staff at Dr. Motiwala Dental Clinic & Implant Centre is anxious to make you feel at ease and help you unwind while providing you with the highest quality dental care.
