FACTS AND MYTHS ABOUT DENTAL CARE
1. MYTH: ONCE A TOOTH IS TREATED, THE DECAY STOPS
This is not true as there is no guarantee for it. After the treatment, you must properly care every tooth by
regularly brushing and flossing it.
2. MYTH: BRUSHING YOUR BLEEDING GUMS IS BAD
Most common misconception of oral care. Brushing is not only good for your teeth, but also for your tongue and gums.
3. MYTH: EXPENSIVE TOOTHPASTE IS ALWAYS BETTER
It is not always true, as some moderately expensive toothpastes can be very effective. Ask your dentist about the
toothpaste that can be good for your dental care.
4. MYTH: PLACING AN ASPIRIN NEXT TO A TOOTH WILL LESSEN THE PAIN
Toothache remedies won’t solve your dental problems. Putting an aspirin tablet will lead to painful burns.
5. FLOSSING IS NOT IMPORTANT
Skipping the floss means giving a chance to build up bacteria. If you don’t floss, you don’t clean 33% of your tooth surfaces.
6. MYTH: BABIES CAN’T GET CAVITIES
If proper care is not taken, then it might cause permanent tooth problem
7. MYTH: DENTAL PROCEDURES MUST BE AVOIDED DURING PREGNANCY
Certain procedures such as X-rays and dental surgery must be avoided, but regular dental treatments must be followed
