(Helpful Tip) #Self Tartar Removal Method Know-How

When you think of the dentist, you probably don't want to go and find it very scary, right?

 

I really don't want to go to the dentist..ㅠㅠ The costs are not cheap, and since it's a hard-to-see area, managing it is also a bit difficult.

 

Everyone probably gets their teeth cleaned with scaling at least once a year.

Still, since it's only once a year, I think it would be better to manage it myself directly.

 

When tartar forms, it causes bad breath and worsens cavities, so it is a part that must be properly managed.

 

So, I would like to share some tips on how to manage tartar buildup on your own!

 

First, what is tartar?

Tartar is a yellow substance that hardens and accumulates on the surface of teeth, which is difficult to remove. It is formed by the continuous accumulation of plaque or calcified deposits.

 

Causes of tartar formation

The causes of tartar formation include smoking, improper brushing habits, environmental factors, and genetic factors. Since tartar can cause bad breath (halitosis), cavities, periodontal disease, and gum inflammation, it is important to regularly manage it through self-tartar removal methods.

 

First, [brushing teeth]

The most basic method of preventing tartar is brushing your teeth. Thorough and proper brushing is very effective in removing tartar, and using tartar control toothpaste with a slightly higher fluoride content or a tartar control toothbrush is even more effective in preventing tartar buildup.

 

Second, [dental floss]

Food particles stuck between teeth after eating are not easily removed by brushing. In this case, it is recommended to use dental floss to remove the trapped food. It is also good to finish with brushing after using dental floss.

 

Third, [vinegar and salt gargle]

Vinegar is well known for its sterilizing properties, but since it is acidic, it should be sufficiently diluted in water and gargled for 30 seconds to 1 minute to effectively remove tartar. Additionally, salt is effective in eliminating bacteria that cause tartar. Furthermore, it is also effective in eliminating bad breath.

 

Fourth, [Method Using Fruits]

In the case of lemons, they help with antibacterial action and tartar disinfection. Applying lemon to areas with tartar and leaving it on for about 10 minutes allows the acidic components to dissolve the tartar. Afterwards, cleaning thoroughly with a toothbrush not only helps remove tartar but also contributes to whitening and freshening breath.

Additionally, the white part inside the orange peel helps remove bacteria that cause tartar, and like lemon, rubbing it on tartar areas for about 10 minutes and then cleaning it off with a toothbrush is effective for self-removal of tartar.
