I had my very first dental cleaning this morning with NOTHING to talk about. Very little plaque and no suspicious looking places. The hygienist and dentist concurred - keep on doing whatever I've been doing! It's a happy day today!
I've been following the protocol of DryRDH (from another list). I use an electric toothbrush, floss, handheld WaterPik, and the PBF version of Biotene toothpaste and mouthwash. Each week, I use my tooth-whitening trays filled with either Prevident 5000 or MI Paste, alternately, for about an hour (while I sit at the computer). I always swish or brush after eating anything sweet.
I sure hope this continues. I've had numerous gumline cavities and a molar extracted last year. I figured I'd go all out with tooth care and try to save all my remaining teeth forever.
It's sure is really nice to go to the dentist and get a great report. It thrills me to death to here those words. It just take a little work and determinations. Keep up to good work and heres to many more dental successes!!!
