Not Brushing Teeth

                                                                Not brushing teeth                                          

Many people do not know what will happen in a circumstance where there is not brushing teeth although they do this every other day without knowing it.                                                                   

The tendency of taking the routine of tooth brushing as a boring subject is extremely high due to the many duties people have to succumb in during the day.                                                                 

Teeth should be brushed thoroughly for more than two times a day, and if not, then the problems manifest themselves in a variety of ways.                                                                                         

These ways might in the long-run affect the general human health. Brushing of teeth should be maintained since the human mouth harbors a variety of bacteria estimated to be over 600 types. Some of these bacteria are good and recommended in protecting one’s oral foundation while others are highly discouraged because of the damage they cause.                                                                                           

Plaque accumulation will be on the rise where there is a recurrence of not brushing teeth. This is a bacterial film that feeds upon the sugars deposited on one’s mouth. They eventually produce acids which are responsible for decaying the tooth enamel and resultantly cause small holes called cavities.                    

After some time, the plaque becomes harder and resistant to brushing and forms a biofilm. This further forms tartar which irritates the gums and causes gingivitis.                                                                                       Gingivitis refers to the inflammation of the gums which may cause swelling and bleeding of the gums. Gingivitis occurs due to the uncontrolled accumulation of plaque and tartar. This uncontrolled accumulation was at first brought by avoiding the frequent brushing of teeth.                                                        

Gingivitis is only a highway for other serious predicaments which will include cavities, bone loss, bad breath, abscesses, discolored teeth and swollen gums.                                                                    

This is because the gum pockets form and whenever they are irritated; the gums pull away from the teeth. Further avoiding brushing one’s teeth will lead to periodontal/gum diseases called periodontitis which have severe symptoms such as excruciating pain and loss of teeth. Tooth decay increase and this may result to the dentist removing the paining teeth.                                                                                                   

Trying to eat will anything will also be a big problem, often when eating foods rich in sugar deposits, those that are too cold or too hot will become an unbearable task to undertake.                                                     In short, you won’t be human again, and you will have deprived yourself to the best the world offers, since some delicacies will be inedible and also you will lose one thing that makes people warm, a smile.         

Take care of your teeth, because this takes care about your overall health.
