Oral Hygiene domicialiare but not enough to completely eliminate bacterial plaque and calculus, then we must provide for periodic visits by the professional who will carry out the so-called dental professional with this definition include all of the operations conducted by the professional ( dentist, dentist, dental hygienist) to remove all traces accomulatisi over time following the inability of the IOD maneuvers to be effective in an absolute way.
Selection and use of the toothbrush
The toothbrush is the primary tool for oral hygiene, it is therefore vital to choose well. A good toothbrush should have the right handle, a head of an appropriate size, which easily reach any part of the mouth, consisting of synthetic bristles with rounded ends, a diameter of between 0.20 and 0.25 mm. These measures correspond to the type of spezzolino indicated by the words "hard media".
The length of the essay should be around 3 cm for adult and 1.5 for the child.
The bristles of the brush should be perfectly straight and of equal length. As soon lose their integrity, and they appear bent and distorted, replace your toothbrush with a new one. Generally the change of the toothbrush should be changed every 2-3 months.
The teeth should be brushed until 20 minutes after the conclusion of the meal, to prevent the germination of bacterial plaque.
The technique of brushing teeth is important, because if the wrong can bring harm rather than good.
Brushing in left-right direction, that is often seen on television, is ineffective, since drag plaque and deposits it in the gaps where dental stagnate, favoring the occurrence of tartar and tooth decay. Moreover, this practice tends to separate the gum from the dental necks producing gum recession, unsightly and annoying as they increase the sensitivity to heat and cold.
For good oral hygiene toothbrush is always moved in a direction perpendicular to the gum, and always the gum to the tooth. So, to clean the upper teeth should be the movement of the brush from top to bottom, with an inclination of 45 degrees, to remove plaque from under the gingival collar.
To clean the lower jaw movement is correct from the bottom up.
This' operation should be repeated both on the outside of the teeth and on the inside, which is often overlooked in the most difficult to access.
Cleaning the chewing of the back teeth brushing should be carried out from the rear to the front and back and only then with a lateral movement, which promotes the cleaning of the interstices between the teeth.
Oral hygiene home must not neglect the cleaning of the Lungu, which is brushed gently, preferably with special tools to remove food debris but also microorganisms that lurk on the tongue and are often responsible of bad breath. The language should be made protrude outward as much as possible, then you must enter your toothbrush or a special tool as deep and must be extracted rubbing the surface of the tongue. Unfortunately, this causes a fastioso stimulus of rejection, especially because the most important part is to clean the rear. However, it is a disorder that you soon get used to tolerate, and that fades with time.
Selection and use of dental floss
The periodic use of dental floss is essential to eliminate bacterial plaque adhering to the surfaces between the tooth and the tooth, inaccessible to the toothbrush. The accumulation of plaque in this area can cause inflammation of the papilla (interdental gingiva), which if left untreated can develop into periodontal disease.
The floss is inserted between two teeth, pushed gently until it touches the gum, and pulled out it lightly to the wall of a tooth. The action is repeated twice to interstitium, one for each tooth that shares the same gap. There are different types of dental floss, very interesting are those flat belt, which fit very well in tight intertizi of people with problems of overcrowding, and lint but remain intact.
Selection and use of toothpaste
The choice of toothpaste oral hygiene is not so important, surely less important than the choice of the toothbrush. You should choose a toothpaste with fluoride, a substance that promotes the remineralization of the teeth and has an antiseptic action.
Professional Oral Hygiene
The visit to the dentist should be made at least once a year, preferably every 6 months, especially by those who have teeth prepared the accumulation of plaque and tartar. The professional (dentist or hygienist), with special tools, you can remove deep into the plaque and tartar that build up in spite of good oral hygiene at home. In addition, during the visit will be possible to make a thorough check by identifying potential problems, which if treated in time will have a favorable course.
