COMMON DENTAL MYTHS<\/em><\/span><\/h1>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.19.3″]<\/p>\n

Coca Cola will rot your teeth<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 false or fact? There are a lot of things we\u2019re told\u00a0growing up when it comes to teeth health and we\u2019re going to come clean on the top\u00a010.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. As long as my teeth seem fine and I\u2019m not experiencing any problems, I\u00a0don\u2019t need to go to the dentist<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Regular check ups at the dentist are extremely important because there\u2019s\u00a0only so much you can see inside your mouth. You may think that your teeth\u00a0are fine, but a visit to the dentist will confirm that. If there is something wrong,\u00a0it\u2019s much easier to treat if it\u2019s found early on, and this will only happen if\u00a0you\u2019ve seen a dentist.<\/li>\n
  2. My teeth are white, so they must be healthy<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Although they might look great, just because you have white teeth doesn\u2019t\u00a0mean they\u2019re healthy. Regardless of the colour of your teeth, you still need to\u00a0keep your teeth healthy by brushing regularly, flossing and visiting the dentist\u00a0every 12 months.<\/li>\n
  3. There is fluoride in water<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Fluoride is found in the public water supply to reduce tooth decay, at a level\u00a0that is effective for preventing cavities.<\/li>\n
  4. Only the sugar in sweets is bad for my teeth<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0While these types of foods don\u2019t do any favours for your teeth, natural food\u00a0such as dried fruit and fresh juice can also cause tooth decay. Be wary of\u00a0sugar levels in all food and drink you consume and try to avoid them between\u00a0meals.<\/li>\n
  5. Bad breath is from inadequate tooth brushing<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0In most cases, bad breath is caused by poor oral hygiene. Make sure you\u2019re\u00a0regularly brushing and flossing, eating healthy food and drinks, and\u00a0exercising to avoid bad breath.<\/li>\n
  6. Bleaching your teeth is dangerous<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0In the 1990\u2019s, the materials used to bleach teeth were acidic and would\u00a0actually break down enamel, but the materials used in today\u2019s whitening\u00a0agents aren\u2019t harmful to the enamel.<\/li>\n
  7. Brushing your bleeding gums is bad<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Brushing is good for your teeth, gums and tongue. It gets rid of plaque\u00a0which is what causes inflammation, gingivitis and gum disease. The trick\u00a0is to brush your gums softly to keep the gum tissue clean.<\/li>\n
  8. Flossing is not as important as brushing<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Flossing isn\u2019t promoted as much as brushing, but it\u2019s just as important. If\u00a0you don\u2019t floss, you\u2019re missing almost 33% of your tooth surface which\u00a0can lead to a build-up of bacteria and turn into gum disease.<\/li>\n
  9. Scaling can weaken teeth<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Scaling removes tartar that accumulates on teeth. Although teeth may\u00a0temporarily become sensitive after scaling, this doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re\u00a0weakened.<\/li>\n
  10. Whitening products ruin your teeth<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Tooth whitening is perfectly safe for your teeth as long as it\u2019s applied\u00a0correctly. Some products can increase teeth sensitivity; professional teeth\u00a0whitening will keep your teeth healthy and white.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
