�����:Could you write about Phsycis so I can pass Science class? �����:s43u8i tijysxrdnnxh �����:I started viisting the dentist for regular checkup every 6 months about 10 years ago. In the past 2 years, I visit the dentist once every 9 months as I find that 6 monthly visit is too short a time frame for me. In addition, also to cut cost as for a normal cleaning and polishing now cost around $80 (private dentist).I also started flossing my teeth before retiring to bed for the past 5 years. Initially, it was difficult to do it everyday as I tend to get lazy. However, overtime I realise that if I floss regularly I will have an easier time during the regular checkup as my dentist has cleaning and polishing to do. When I floss less regularly my dentist will take longer time to clean and polish my teeth.Just like brushing your teeth first thing in the morning if you don’t do it you will think that something is not right. I believe good dental health can cultivated and in time to come it will become a habit. Merlion �����:Dental health knlgoedwe is quite lacking here compared to Western country. I am also a late starter. If I knew the importance of dental floss or interdental brush 35 years earlier, my teeth/gum will not cost so much to maintain now.Dental floss is much more effective than brushing in term of oral hygiene. The amount of food debris left inside your mouth overnight can be plentiful if you only use tooth brush 2 times a day. Dental floss can effectively remove most of this harmful debris in our mouth to cut down decay and mouth odour problem. By visiting your dentist twice a year, you can pretty sure your teeth polished and cleaned on top of normal brushing. Don’t forget gum health which is the most critcal to overall oral health. Loh �����:Cleaning at a dentist is uslulay $80 and up…right now, my dentist is having a special deal, to encourage people to take better care of their teeth. They have a scaling and polishing package at only $200 for 4 sessions, transferable and valid for one year.You can call and check, it’s a fabulous deal, and they are very gentle. My friend with black tar stains got all his tobacco stains removed in one session, he was very happy!We even took a video of the whole process.Tooth AngelsThe Central #b1-01(Clarke Quay MRT, Exit F )Tel: 62226220I tried the interdental brush too, but wasn’t very good at controlling it, so I kinda made my gums bleed 🙁 Sticking to flossing and regular cleaning at Tooth Angels, my dentist! �����:Enamel is one of the toughest parts of our human body but it does not mean that it can’t be worn down. I have thin enmael due to teeth griding at sleep when young which adds cost of maintenance. With inadequate cover of enmael, you will be sensitive to cold and hot food, and lose the interest in eating in later stage. Polishing and scaling by qualified dentist will not damage enmael unless people opt for chemical whitening or physical polishing. These treatments are enmael damaging, popular only for asethetic purpose but not oral health.Loh http://jgsznf.com [url=http://juddwu.com]juddwu[/url] [link=http://xjgrevsexej.com]xjgrevsexej[/link]

Each of us dreams of a dazzling Hollywood smile, and, by modern standards, the whiter teeth, the better. Alas, for many regular visits to the dentist – not afford, and even after the professional teeth whitening are gradually losing their cherished whiteness. How to solve this annoying problem?
