If you think that tooth decay is just for children, think again because you may be facing a large risk to your health if you don’t visit Boynton Beach

Adult tooth decay can lead to major health problems like infection, bone or nerve damage and tooth loss. When left untreated, dental infections

can spread to other parts of the body and can even be life threatening in some cases.

If this sounds scary to you, the good news is, tooth decay is preventable. You can start by visiting

dentists in Boynton Beach FL and getting a check-up every 6 months to treat existing cavities

and prevent future occurrences.

Brushing Your Teeth

Brushing your teeth is the key to good oral health and hygiene. Make sure to brush your teeth with a soft-bristled

brush twice a day. Your toothbrush should reach all the areas of your mouth easily. Don’t forget to replace your

toothbrush every 3 or 4 months, or sooner if the bristles of your toothbrush are frayed. It doesn’t matter whether you

choose a manual or powered toothbrush, as long as you brush twice a day and choose an ADA-accepted fluoride

toothpaste.

Flossing

Brushing always goes hand in hand with flossing. Floss twice a day to remove plaque between your teeth where

your toothbrush cannot reach. Flossing is extremely important since any plaque that is not removed by brushing

will eventually harden and form into tartar or calculus. Once tartar has formed, it can only be removed by

professional cleaning by Boynton Beach dentists.

Right Nutrition

What you put in your mouth impacts not only your general health but also your dental health. Poor nutrition leads to

all kinds of health problems, including oral health problems, gum disease and cavities. In fact, studies show that people who wear dentures and have lost teeth do not eat enough fruits and vegetables and have less nutritious

diets.

Right Nutrition

The first signs of poor nutrition often show up in your dental health. Make sure to eat a balanced diet with fruits

and vegetables consisting half of what you eat everyday. Eat only whole grains like oatmeal, whole wheat bread, and

brown rice. Choose fat-free or low-fat dairy products and eat lean proteins like lean beef, fish, and skinless poultry.

Eat at least 8 oz of seafood every week.
