Are you doing an absolutely amazing job avoiding tooth decay? Are you maybe doing an okay job but you really don’t know?

No matter where you are in terms of your journey toward protecting teeth from bacteria and the damage that they cause, take heart: Your Corona dentist is happy to help you with easy suggestions!
Rinse Sugar And Other Culprits Off Of Teeth ASAP
If you eat sugar (like candy) or something full of carbs (like bread) or something acidic (you see where we’re headed), then you should simply remember to wash them from your smile just as soon as you can. How to do this? It’s so very easy, explains your Corona dentist. The best thing that you can do is to swish with water. Drink water. Rinse and spit it out. Whatever works for you. When you do this, you help to minimize any potential problems, as you remove damaging and tooth decay causing particles from teeth. Then, about a half hour to an hour later, if you can, feel free to brush for even more protection!
