Stating that the beginning of the detox process is the mouth, which is the entrance gate of our body, Chief Physician of Hospitadent Kayseri branch Abdulkadir POLAT emphasized that cleaning the teeth and tongue areas is one of the most important steps in losing weight and staying fit.
Chief Physician Abdulkadir POLAT, who stated that toxins have a negative effect on our physical and psychological health by negatively affecting our body, stated that the most common areas of bacterial exotoxins are our mouth and tongue. Therefore, he added that it is very useful to use dental floss in places where toothbrushes cannot reach to get rid of bacteria in the mouth and teeth.
Stating that certain plaques and food residues may remain in different parts of the tooth despite regular brushing, Dentist POLAT emphasized that dental floss helps the teeth to be clean because it enters thinner and narrower parts. He added that the correct use of dental floss is the most important step in losing weight and staying fit, as well as removing plaque and food residues that cause tooth decay and gum disease.
So, how to use dental floss?
Chief Physician POLAT, emphasizing that it is necessary to clean between all teeth and go under the gums with dental floss, expressed that healthy and clean teeth can be reached by using dental floss once a day. In addition, he added that the floss should be moved between the teeth with soft movements, adding that too much strain when entering between the teeth can cause problems such as pain, bleeding and gingival recession in the gums, as it can damage the gingival tissue.
Hospitadent Chief Physician POLAT said that clean parts of dental floss should be used while passing from tooth to tooth, and emphasized that using dental floss at night prevents waking up with a bad and disturbing odor in the morning.
