How do I keep my teeth clean?
I go to the dentist about once or twice a year, to get my teeth cleaned Im only thirteen and my teeth have tatar on them even though i floss and brush regularly. Any suggestions on what to do to further clean them and keep them clean?
Hi there,
There must be area’s that you are missing with your brush, the first stage of tarter, is called plaque, which is soft and easily removed with your toothbrush, if the plaque is left for more than 24 hours, it hardens into tarter. I suggest using an electric toothbrush and be sure to brush right up to your gums.
if you are flossing and brushing regularly, you should look into the type of toothpaste you use, and think about adding mouthwash to your routine. use it after you eat and when you’re brushing your teeth.

The bacteria that migrates from your throat and stomach into your mouth can cause tartar and eventually as you age, will cause gum disease. Go get some yogurt or dietary supplement such as a acidolphilus (good bacteria) and take it daily. When you get old enough, do a body detox or colon cleanse.
You won’t find a doctor or dentist that will tell you this, but when you have more a bunch of bad bacteria, the bacteria can come into your mouth from your stomach and cause bad breath and tartar.
