4 MYTHS OF ORAL HYGIENE
If you believe one of these myths about oral hygiene, beware! Your mouth health may be in danger!
.
Toothbrushes with stiff bristles clean more.
The truth is that hard brushes are not recommended as they can damage the gums and cause them to retract. Those with soft bristles and a small head are the most recommended by dentists.
.
For a thorough cleaning you need a mouthwash.
These products only complement oral hygiene and its effect is even greater if it contains fluorine in its composition. The mouthwash enhances hygiene as it penetrates places where the brush cannot reach.
But remember the irreplaceable brushing and flossing!
.
When your gums bleed it is best not to brush your teeth.
Bleeding from the gums is often associated with gingivitis, an inflammation that, in turn, occurs due to poor oral hygiene. Be sure to brush your teeth and floss, as this will further aggravate the problem. Talk to a dentist for better advice!
.
Abrasive toothpaste cleans better.
Abrasive toothpastes can damage tooth enamel, damage that may not be reversible, so be careful when choosing your toothpaste.
