hello there,
Improper brushing of the teeth and flossing in between the teeth leads to food lodgement and bacterial decomposition .
This leads to bacterial decay of the teeth , deposition of bacterial plaque and calculus deep in the gum pockets and root sur faces of the teeth leads to gingival inflammation , redeness, bleeding gums , recession and sensitivity.
If not treated in time the condition may progress to tooth mobility an exfoiliation.
so to prevent all these , regular tooth brushing with soft or medium tooth brush and flossing in between the tooth is needed.
maintain good oral hygiene, use lukewarm saline water or antiseptic mouthwash like chlorhexidine or betaine for regular oral rinsing.
go for professional scaling of the teeth every 6 months to mainatin good oral health.
i hope this information helps,
take care.

Hi,
Scaling of teeth by a dentist should be once in 6 months. Flossing once a day improves gingival health. Clean your tongue using a tongue scraper after brushing your teeth. Change your tooth brush every 3 months. Consult your dentist atleast once in 6 months.
