Not to mention a tiny fucking hole in them is one of the the most painful experiences in life which only ends if you see a dentist, wait for it to rot, or rip the tooth out yourself.
And that's not even mentioning how fucked the average persons diet is, it's practically guaranteed to happen eventually, without intervention.
Then there is the constant risk of biting on something hard and busting a tooth. I've had it happen 3 fucking times.
Have you tried flossing?
doesnt work on the biting surfaces, need to invest an electric or sonic tooth brush for that. and regular cleanings from the dentists. also discourage the usage of whitening toothpaste.
I have all of those things and get regular cleanings. No whitening toothpaste or treatments.
regular cleanings and probably mouthwash once in a while, and i use stannous flouride which is better than the regular kind.
nHAP is allegedly used by the flouride free crowd without a significant efficacy since there is more than one company making nHAP, i noticed most of them are obsessed with stuffing it with abrasives, so be wary.
