Hi, I have an issue with my teeth in front row with black colour between teeth and gums how it can be removed which is the best tooth paste for this.

Question

All food & drink containing sugar, sticky food, dry mouth, improper oral hygiene that includes improper brushing, flossing, & tongue cleaning can cause tooth decay. Apply amflor tooth paste on the teeth. Wait for 10 to 15 min. Then brush your teeth with the same paste. Dental tips: - visit a dentist every six months for cleaning and a thorough dental check-up. Limit sugary food to avoid tooth decay. Gargle your mouth thoroughly after every meal. Scrub gently to clean your tongue with a tongue cleaner. Floss all your teeth inter dentally & brush twice daily, morning & night, up & down short vertical strokes, with ultra-soft bristles, indicator brush. Tooth brush to be changed every 2 months.

Hi lybrate-user you have to visit to dentist to evaluate whether black colour is because of caries or if its a stain between teeth.

Praveen Kumar · Answer

You might need dental scaling as paste alone will not help. Please visit your nearest dentist and get a clinical examination done.

Hello lybrate-user, the black colour of your teeth which you are talking about is probably due to the calculus deposits in that area which with time gets stained depending upon the foods you take. It occurs because of improper brushing in that region regardless of what toothpaste you use. So, the most important thing is your brushing technique which you need to improve. Have some look over the youtube videos, you will get to know the proper method. Once the plaque gets calcified, it can not be removed by normal brushing so do not try removing it by brushing hardly, it will only damage your teeth more and will cause abrasion leading to senstivity. So, here?s my suggestion to you: 1) firstly, to get it removed, you?ll have to visit your nearby dentist and get your scaling done. 2) once done with it, do regular warm saline rinses for atleast a week or two. 3) and for a few weeks try using chlorhexideine mouthwash, before going to sleep. 4) last but not least, improve your brushing technique otherwise there are always chances that it will happen again in sometime.
