If you want to keep your teeth healthy for a long time, it is not enough to just maintain hygiene. You should also give up habits that destroy teeth.
Dentist Ksenia Klimova spoke about this in more detail, reports Gazeta.Ru .
As the doctor noted, smoking is a bad habit that not only causes an unpleasant odor, but also irritates the mucous membrane, leading to periodontitis and other problems.
Klimova said that you shouldn’t open bottles with your teeth or chew on pens, otherwise the enamel will wear away and cracks and chips will appear.
You shouldn't drink soda. The product thins the enamel.
Incorrect brushing also provokes problems. For example, if you choose a hard brush and take a whitening paste, then your teeth and gums will definitely suffer.
As the dentist emphasized, frequent snacking also ruins teeth.
The thing is that less saliva is produced than, for example, during a full meal. As a result, food remains get stuck between the teeth. As a result, bacteria actively multiply, and this leads to caries and plaque.
