found my dentist on Spock


I had a dental pain and had to visit my dentist. The problem was a minor one and was solved soon. I am quite afraid of going to a dentist and asked my dentist some tips to avoid visiting him. Here are some tips which my dentist cheerfully shared with me to prevent teeth problems.

While the following brushing and flossing tips may contain useful general guidelines, you should see a dental hygienist to ensure that you use a technique that is appropriate for you!

Brushing Tips

Be sure your brush is the right size (in general, smaller is better than larger). Place the bristles at a 45 degree angle to the gum line, and slide the tips of the brush under the gums.Gently jiggle the bristles or move it in small circles over the tooth and gums. Brush the outside, the inside, and the chewing surfaces of your teeth. For chewing surfaces, use a light back and forth motion. For the front teeth, brush the inside surfaces of the upper and lower jaws: Tilt your brush vertically and make several strokes up and down with the front part of the brush over the teeth and gum tissues.

Flossing Tips

Wrap about 18 inches of floss around the middle fingers of your hands. Hold the floss tightly, using your thumbs and forefingers, and gently guide it between your teeth. Don't "snap" the floss as this can cut the gums! When the floss reaches the gumline, curve it into a C-shape against one tooth and gently slide it into the space between the gum and the tooth until you feel pressure against the tooth. Gently scrape the side of the tooth with the floss. Repeat this method on all your teeth.



I must say, whether you are looking for a dentist, curious about what's on there about yourself or other people you know, or you are looking for a different type of professional, Spock can be a lot of fun! It might surprise you what's on there and where it comes from!
