A set of measures that allow you to remove dental plaque to prevent dental diseases is oral hygiene. The quality of its implementation depends not only on the health of the teeth and mucous membrane, but also the condition of the gums and even the gastrointestinal tract. Proper oral care ensures 100% prevention of caries and inflammatory processes in the mouth. For this, not only hygienic toothpastes are used every day, but also antibacterial rinses.
Ways to strengthen gums at home
Many people face the problem of bleeding from the gums when brushing their teeth. The reasons for this can be:
high hardness of the toothbrush;
mechanical or chemical exposure;
oral diseases and tartar;
hormonal disorders;
vitamin deficiency;
chronic diseases.
Although home treatment does not help to completely eliminate the problem, strengthening the gums at home is possible. To do this, you need to follow several rules:
ensure proper nutrition: eat less spicy, salty and sour foods, increasing the amount of fresh products in your diet: fruits, vegetables, salads and other greens;
choose the right toothbrush;
rinse your mouth after eating, or better yet, brush your teeth, if possible;
try to quit smoking and drinking alcohol;
visit the dentist at least twice a year to detect and treat diseases in a timely manner.
Along with following simple rules, you can replace the hygiene products you use with new ones. Naphthalan toothpaste and mouthwash help reduce inflammation and bleeding gums.
How to properly care for your teeth
Proper oral hygiene procedures are aimed at maintaining healthier teeth, without yellow plaque, fresh and pleasant breath, and preventing bleeding gums. This will allow you to get an attractive and snow-white smile and prevent dental diseases.
The oral hygiene memo contains several important rules:
Your teeth should always be clean, so that there are no food particles stuck between them;
Pink gums do not bleed when brushing with a toothbrush;
No bad breath;
No pain when chewing food.
If one of these signs is missing, you should visit a dentist. He, if necessary, will treat the identified defects, advise how to care for the oral cavity, what products are best to use.
One of them is naphthalan paste. It contains:
Naphthalan oil;
Menthol and chamomile extracts;
Aloe extract;
Plantain, Echinacea and nettle;
Chelidonia majus.
The composition features antibacterial properties, increased resistance of mucous membranes, acceleration of the regeneration process, and creation of a teeth whitening effect.
When used daily, the paste has a positive effect on bleeding gums and oral diseases such as gingivitis, stomatitis and periodontitis.
To achieve a greater effect, it is worth getting to know what a mouthwash is for and how to use it. It is used before and after brushing your teeth. In the first case, the product helps to soften plaque on the teeth, in the second - to consolidate the cleaning effect.
A short instruction, universal for all formulations, helps to use the naphthalan rinse correctly.
For maximum benefit, you must carefully study the recommendations on the label. It indicates the frequency of rinsing and the period of use, which depends on the purpose of the composition and its concentration.
The rinsing algorithm is as follows: the product is collected in the cap and the oral cavity is rinsed for at least 30 seconds. Try not to swallow the liquid. To increase the effectiveness of daily hygiene procedures, it is worth using an irrigator.
Proper oral care will not only keep your teeth healthy for a long time, but will also reduce the risk of acquiring other diseases.
