Eight ways to save money at the dentist

Below are 8 tips to save money at the dentist.

1. Make sure your teeth are brushed properly and that your teeth are really clean. Use dental floss or toothpicks to clean between your teeth.
2. Use the right triangular toothpicks, every day.
3. Go to the dental hygienist twice a year. A good dental hygienist is precise, gives clear instructions and ensures that you know how to keep your mouth clean.
4. Ask your dentist to make restorations that will last a lifetime, not fillings that have to be redone after 5 years. It costs a little more the first time, but after that you save a lot. Both your teeth and your wallet.
5. Always wear a mouth guard if you play a dangerous sport (hockey, boxing, water polo etc). An accident can happen at any time and a protector ensures that the damage is limited.
6. Don’t drink too many corrosive liquids such as orange juice or carbonated drinks. They damage the enamel and dentin.
7. Go to a good dentist, who will give you good advice and make sure you keep beautiful teeth.
   A good dentist is a precise dentist who works with a microscope and takes time for his treatments.
8. Remember that you are responsible for your own teeth, unhealthy food, alcohol and drugs undermine your health and teeth.
