Answers:
Careful and frequent brushing with a toothbrush and the use of dental floss help to prevent build-up of plaque bacteria on the teeth!. These bacteria metabolize carbohydrates in our meals or snacks and excrete acid which demineralizes tooth enamel, eventually leading to tooth decay and toothache if acid episodes are frequent or are not prevented!. Calculus (dental) or tartar buildup on teeth usually opposite salivary ducts is because of calcium deposits in resident plaque!. Frequent brushing and swishing saliva around helps prevent these deposits!. Cavities can be costly, in terms of the monetary cost to drill out the cavities and insert dental fillings, and in terms of the tissue already damaged!. Fluoride- containing, or anti-plaque (tartar control) toothpastes may be recommended by the dentist!.

Almost all cavities occur where food is trapped between teeth and inside deep pits and fissures in grooves on chewing surfaces where the brush, toothpaste, mouthwash, saliva and chewing gum, cannot reach!.

Special appliances or tools may be recommended to supplement (but not to replace) toothbrushing and flossing!. These include special toothpicks, oral irrigators, or other devices!. Initially electric toothbrushes were only recommended for persons who have problems with strength or dexterity of their hands, but many dentists are now recommending them to many other patients in order to improve their home dental care!. In many parts of the world natural toothbrushes are used!. In the Muslim world the miswak or siwak is made from twigs or roots that are alleged to have an antiseptic effect when applied as a toothbrush!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Brushing your teeth does not remove stains!.!.!.no matter what your toothpaste tells you!.
If you want whiter teeth you should try an at home treatment like crest whitening strips or a dental treatment like Zoom whitening!. You have to be at least 18 years old in most dental offices!.(I don't know your age)
The Zoom treatment is about 2 hours and they apply beach and then use a UV light to quicken the results!. It works really good!. A good office will also give you bleaching trays and a take home bleaching tube!.
Crest whitening strips work well BUT they will make your teeth ulta sensitive and your gums will become swollen and start to crack!.
Whatever method you choose you will get results!.
Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

No it is not! The thing is Dentists have been having a field day with this overcharging everyone! Just to get your teeth polished / cleaned every now and then should be a cheap $30 procedure, ive seen my dentist in our area personally turn into a millionaire overnight multi that is,( one million isnt much these days!.) It is about time something was invented that people at home (beside the not so affective tooth brush ) can clean their teeth a little more on their own without having to run to the theiving dentists, or resorting to all these gimmics the other big thieves the Chemists put out for everyone to try!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.and by that i don't mean the woosy dental floss, how about some real tools that we can look after our own teeth to a certain extent of course!Www@Answer-Health@Com
