Tooth enamel is milk white and semitransparent.It is so hard and convenient to bite and grind up food.Tooth enamel is wear-resistant and anti-corrosive.Once tooth enamel is damaged,dentin inside would be decayed fast because of its weak immunity.Then one would have a toothache.It is just like the paint coating and cladding layer covering the iron to protect it from being rusted.But if the protecting layer falls off,iron would get rusted quickly.So one needs to protect his or her tooth enamel carefully.

    1. Brush for at least two minutes, twice daily, with a fluoridated toothpaste

    2. Brush last thing at night and at least on one other occasion

    3. Use a small headed toothbrush with medium bristles.

    4. Put a pea-sized blob of fluoride toothpaste on your toothbrush.

    5. Brush along the gum line as well as the teeth themselves

    6. Brush all surfaces of the teeth, including the outer, inner and chewing surfaces as well as the hard-to-reach back teeth and areas around fillings, crowns or other restorations.

    If you have spaces between teeth, it is best to clean these with an interdental or single-tufted brush. Where the spaces between teeth are too tight to fit such a brush, use dental floss or tape.

    7. If you are unsure about the effectiveness of brushing, use disclosing tablets after brushing to highlight any areas you may have missed.

    There is good evidence that a small-headed counter oscillating electric toothbrush helps in removing dental plaque but they must be used correctly and your dentist or hygienist will advise.
