People could avoid trips to the emergency dentist.

The number of people who make trips to see an emergency dentistry professional could be cut considerably if people took better care of their teeth, it has been argued.

Simple toothache is the number one reason that people have emergency treatments carried out and this is often caused by decay, KDRV reports.

As such, having in place a regimented oral health routine could see people reducing the likelihood of having emergency treatments carried out and could save them a lot of pain in the process.

Dentist Dr Beau Kappthe commented: “The biggest part that can prevent tooth decay is what the person or patient can do at home with the proper home care.

“Brushing and flossing – and that doesn’t seem to really cost a lot of money.”

Elsewhere, Dr Nigel Carter, head of the British Dental Health Foundation, recently told the Independent that daily flossing can play a major part in ensuring people remove plaque and therefore cut their risk of developing tooth decay.
