How to Banish Back-Teeth Plaque
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Oral health is an important element of health that we should be more concerned about. Poor oral hygiene can cause a variety of dental problems, including gingivitis, plaque, and tooth decay. Most people are very concerned about tooth plaque, which is one of the most visible dental problems.

Remember that plaque is created by the accumulation of bacteria on the surface of the teeth. This is readily remedied with the proper dental hygiene guidelines. But what about bacteria buildup in places that are hard to like the back of the tooth? How are those fixed? This article focuses on how to remove plaque from the surface of the back tooth.

Brushing Techniques for Back Teeth

When it comes to caring for your back teeth, certain brushing techniques can make a big impact on your dental health.

The first step is to angle your toothbrush to the chewing surface and gum line of the back teeth (i.e the flat, broad surface of the teeth that comes into contact with food during chewing). This helps in removing plaque and debris, lowering the likelihood of cavities and gum disease.

Second, use short, soft strokes to fully clean each tooth without damaging your gums. Also, you should devote time (ideally at least 30 seconds) to each tooth brushing to ensure that it receives the necessary amount of scrubbing.

Flossing for Back Teeth

Flossing is your best bet for getting rid of buildups. This tool can reach places that a toothbrush cannot, such as those tight spaces between the teeth that harbor bacteria. Starting with the floss, you can move it back and forth (in a saw motion) between the teeth. After that, to help remove plaque on the teeth and gum line, try using the floss to make the letter C and slide up and down each tooth.

However, because floss is thread-like, if you’re not careful when using it, it might sever your gum tissue.

Electric Toothbrush

Using an electric toothbrush is more than just a fad, as its rotating head can be more effective for cleaning the back of the teeth than a typical manual brush.

Water Flossing

Some people struggle with traditional flossing. But, thanks to innovation and technology, there are water flossers that are an appropriate substitute. These devices use a stream of water to remove plaque and debris from between teeth and along the gumline, making them ideal for cleaning hard-to-reach areas such as the back teeth.

Tongue Cleaning

Although tongue cleaning is sometimes overlooked, it is important in lowering the germs that cause plaque accumulation and bad breath. To maintain general oral health, you can use a tongue scraper to gently remove bacteria from the tongue’s surface.

Conclusion

Treating plaque on the back teeth requires patience and persistence. When you follow these basic oral hygiene tips, you will notice a significant boost in your condition. It’s also a good idea to consult with your dentist to see how they can best help you.
