Oral Hygiene in South East London SE1

06 / 05 / 2013

If you have been very lapse with your oral hygiene in south east London chances are that you will be leaving yourself open to attack from plaque: this is a beast that takes no prisoners and is always ready to strike in your mouth. The thing about this little nasty is that if it is not removed and allowed to fester freely in the mouth, then the build up of it will harden around the base of the mouth and then calculus will form. This is almost like cement and though there are some fairly good sonic toothbrushes on the market that can remove this, it is not easy to get up close and personal with a brush and you will require help from your dentist. They will have the tools required to pick away at the calculus and remove every part of it and then they can give you a thorough clean. If this condition is allowed to stay in your mouth though, it will strangle the life out of your gums and infect them; then you are open season to issues such as tooth decay and gum disease. As long as you keep up with dental appointments, this should never become a problem and so, in the long run, you will save yourself from lengthy, expensive and intense treatments in the future.
