Many dislike going to the dentist because we all like to avoid pain :)
However if you want to maintain good dental hygiene it is important to visit a dentist regularly to detect & avoid serious problems. I visit the dentist whenever I visit Thailand because there are no long queues & the price for a cleaning is only 800baht, less than $34.
I used to get cavities despite brushing regularly until I took some extra steps. The cost of dental care in Spore is not cheap & it is cheaper to avoid problems than to fix problems. On a recent dental visit I only had a clean(scaling) without any other problems.
Here are the steps I took:
1) Use an electric oral B toothbrush
2) use an oral irrigator
3) use a mouth wash, https://sg.iherb.com/pr/Essential-Ox...z-480-ml/28373 (https://sg.iherb.com/pr/Essential-Oxygen-Organic-Brushing-Rinse-Peppermint-16-fl-oz-480-ml/28373)
Twice a day, morning & evening, I would use first the oral irrigator to flush out the food debris. Then I would squirt the mouth wash(BR-brushing rinse) into my mouth to gargle. With the mouth wash still in my mouth, I would use the electric toothbrush with fluoride free toothpaste. Then finally spit everything out.
I DO NOT use products like like listerine because it contains alcohol, fluoride, ... I find that the BR mouth wash has safer ingredients:
Food-Grade Hydrogen Peroxide + Organic Essential Oils
1% FGHP
Aloe Vera
Peppermint
Clove
Lemon
Eucalyptus Cinnamon
Rosemary
It is also priced reasonably at SIN$13.35
The use of an oral irrigator & electric toothbrush did improve my dental hygiene. Only had one cavity in 3 years. The inclusion of a product like BR has I think proved it further. So far no cavities found after 1 year of use.
