By Eric Smith


In order to prevent various dental problems such as damaged and discolored teeth as well as toothache, acquiring a healthy dental habit is a must. Through this, cases of terrible agony caused by a toothache or too much teeth gaps can be greatly minimized. Your local Chico dentist can give you great advice on how to keep your teeth and gums healthy and your mouth happy.

It is safe to say that all of us have been probably taught that brushing of teeth after every meal, especially before getting into bed is important to ensure a good dental habit. With the help of powerful toothpaste prescribe by dentists, brushing of teeth can increase the chance of being free from tooth decay and cases of bacteria build up that are usual carriers of dental diseases.

Aside from brushing of teeth, the use of dental floss can help in preventing dental problems. Flossing has a significant effect in removing plaque between teeth that cannot be reached by your regular toothbrush. Usually, it must be done once a day, but for better results, flossing can be done two times a day. In choosing the right type of dental floss, the best solution is to consult a dentist and ask for some recommendations and tips on how to do them correctly.

Extractions are performed when a tooth or teeth has to be removed or when it cannot be saved. Your dentist might advocate that you extract a tooth or teeth if you have tooth decay or a broken tooth. Your dentist could also recommend this method if fixing a broken tooth is not functional.

Having a regular check up with your local Chico dentists is another way to ensure healthy teeth and gums so don't be afraid of the dentists. It is also very important to follow the recommendations and take note of the warnings given by the dentists regarding proper dental habits.
