I maintain very good dental hygiene, and my dental hygienist always loves me. These are the tips I've picked up from them as I've gone
Thanks for the tips! One nitpick: I'm pretty sure acidity leads to a lower pH, not higher. But, your point still stands!
Good catch. The way I think about the pH scale in my head always feels like acidity should be high on the pH, but that's just wrong XD
Yeah, it would seem that the [p]ower of [H] should increase with the number of H+ ions! But, they threw in that minus sign for some reason.
Good overview!
You can also get the dental picks off Amazon for a few bucks. You can use it once a month and get rid of the plaque yourself. Then it can't build up.
No, this isn't dental advice but I've had no issues. Don't go crazy on your teeth or gums.
