- Visit your dentist and hygienist for recommended cleanings and check ups.
- Brush and floss twice a day to keep you teeth and gums healthy.
- If you have a bridge, floss daily between your natural teeth (or implants) and under the false tooth/teeth. A floss threader may be used to allow floss underneath a bridge.
- Water flossers, such as Waterpik, may be very beneficial in helping your restorations last a long time. Along with using water to irrigate, it has been proven that diluted non-antimicrobial rinse can be extremely helpful.
- Avoid chewing ice or other hard foods to protect your dental restoration.
- If you have a removable partial or denture, it is important to brush and clean them every day.
