Tartar also likes to join in the fun and will often irritate our gums, causing them to become red, swollen, inflamed, and bleed. In severe cases, bad breath or periodontal disease may occur. Even more serious cases may cause major problems such as loosening and falling teeth.

1. How to reduce dental tartar:

If you just want to reduce the formation of tartar, you must brush your teeth carefully and clean with dental floss, which can reduce the formation of tartar from the root.

2. How to remove existing dental calculus

If your dental tartar has already formed, you need to use professional equipment to remove it, which is what we usually call teeth cleaning. It is recommended to go to the dental department of a regular hospital for cleaning. The cost is generally around 100 yuan and it can be completed in less than an hour. When cleaning your teeth, you can also get some health information about your teeth, such as whether you have wisdom teeth, cavities, etc.

After teeth cleaning, your teeth will be very sensitive for a week. Try not to eat hot, cold, sour or sweet foods. But after a week, you will find that your teeth are much healthier after removing the tartar, and bleeding gums rarely occur. The only annoying thing is that after cleaning the tartar, the gaps between teeth appear to become bigger... In addition, you should eat a balanced diet, combine coarse and fine foods, and eat less sweets and very sticky foods. You should also pay attention to oral health checks. It is recommended to have a check every six months or a year.
