The Problem of Plaque

Your teeth are covered with a sticky film of bacteria called plaque. Following a meal or snack, the bacteria release acids that attack tooth enamel. Repeated attacks can cause the enamel to break down, eventually resulting in cavities.

Plaque that is not removed with through daily brushing and cleaning between teeth can eventually harden into calculus, or tartar. Brushing and cleaning between teeth become more difficult when tartar collects above the gum line.

Brushing Basics

Brush twice a day with toothpaste to help prevent tooth decay. Since there are various techniques for brushing your teeth, it is a good idea to ask your dentist which one to use.

Cleaning between your teeth

Even if you brush twice a day, decay-causing bacteria still lingers between teeth where tooth-brush bristles can't reach. Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line. We can provide instructions on proper flossing techniques. The following suggestions may help:

If you haven't been flossing, you may experience sore or bleeding gums for the first five or so days that you floss. This should stop once the plaque is broken up and the bacteria removed. If bleeding does not stop, see your dentist.
