Giving Back To Teeth

Our dental practice is devoted to restoring and enhancing the natural beauty of your smile.
Nearly everyone is aware that cavities form in teeth as a result of the acid produced by bacteria eating away at tooth enamel. What most people don’t know is that tooth enamel can also repair itself to some degree. Known as “remineralization,” the process occurs when calcium in the saliva (and from other sources) replaces lost calcium. In order for tooth enamel to repair itself in this manner, tooth surfaces must be scrupulously clean. There must also be a good supply of saliva and an adequate amount of available calcium. Patients can help themselves in two of these respects by brushing and flossing regularly and by consuming calcium-rich foods such as milk, yogurt, salmon, tofu, spinach, broccoli, peas, and Brussels sprouts.

If you have any questions about dental remineralization call the office of Richard Seidler, D.D.S. - Family Dentistry at 972.625.2222.
