What's the best toothpaste for receding teeth?
Studio Paro’s periodontal dentists have been caring for patients and treating periodontal disease for many years. In this capacity, they also play an advisory and preventive role.
Find out in this article which toothpaste is best for loosening teeth, as well as which products to use to optimize the effectiveness of your periodontal treatment and thus preserve your teeth.
Brush three times a day with an appropriate toothpaste
Do you suffer from poor oral health, periodontal disease, loose or loosening teeth? Brushing is essential!
Ideally, our periodontal dentists recommend brushing morning and night with a specific toothpaste, such as Sensodyne. This product is designed for people suffering from gum and periodontal sensitivity. It soothes gum pain and protects the gums. However, it is not a treatment: while this toothpaste is useful for preventing periodontitis, it is not a substitute for proper in-office treatment.
In addition, Studio Paro recommends brushing after lunch, using a fluoride-enriched anti-caries toothpaste such as those offered by Elmex.
Specific care for periodontitis
If you already suffer from periodontal disease, make an appointment with your periodontal specialist without delay. Your practitioner will carry out a complete oral check-up, before drawing up a treatment schedule.
The program has two components: in-office lithotripsy sessions and home care.
To optimize theeffectiveness of your periodontal treatment, Studio Paro recommends brushing morning and night with a homemade solution ofhydrogen peroxide and baking soda. This mixture cleanses the gums and actively complements the lithotripsy sessions.
Periodontal health: the importance of prevention
Periodontal disease is an insidious process. They often develop over several years, without any apparent symptoms, until it’s too late: periodontal pockets have set in, and treatment is required.
If left untreated, bacteria under the gum multiply and attack the tissues that support the teeth (jawbone, gum, ligament and cementum). As a result, teeth are less securely held in place, and begin to move or even fall out.
If you’re one of those people prone to periodontitis, it’s in your interest to anticipate the ravages of the disease. This means brushing three times a day, using home care products and a special toothpaste to protect your gums from inflammation. By extension, your teeth remain healthy and properly supported.
In addition, it is highly recommended that you consult your dentist and make an appointment with a appointment with a periodontologist. Contact Studio Paro in Lyon!
