Toothpastes for restoration of tooth enamel
Damage to the enamel on the teeth of both an adult and a child can lead to an increase in their sensitivity - a very unpleasant phenomenon. Enamel damage can occur due to a number of chronic diseases, bad habits and many other reasons. Teeth with damaged enamel quickly begin to react with unpleasant pains to eating rather cold or very hot food. In addition, problems in terms of aesthetics may appear - whitish spots are visible on the teeth, and the enamel quickly loses its natural shine. With this problem, if it has not become chronic, high-quality medicinal toothpastes will help to cope.
Peculiarities
Means for the effective restoration of enamel should be classified as medicinal products. They differ from conventional pastes in an increased amount of more active and essential elements for dental health. These pastes can be purchased not only for the prevention of various dental diseases, but also for the elimination of enamel demineralization. Many of these products have restorative properties, they will saturate the enamel with the necessary microelements and qualitatively clean the cracks that have appeared on the teeth not so long ago.
With these remedies cannot be used on a permanent basis. It is better to follow the advice of your doctor and use these pastes for exactly the period of time recommended by the specialist.
After the end of the treatment, you should switch to the usual tooth brushing paste.
Description of species
Before choosing the best toothpaste according to the advice of more experienced consumers, It's a good idea to visit a doctor initially and get competent recommendations from a real specialist. Nowadays, 3 subspecies of medicinal pastes are produced to strengthen the enamel of affected teeth.
Calcium formulations
Calcium compounds are involved here as the main influencing component. This option is the most gentle, for the same reason, it is not effective in all possible cases. He will definitely not be able to cope with microscopic cracks and visible erosion.
In the composition of such toothpastes, the company also includes additional components - extracts of medicinal herbs and various useful plants, which are distinguished by anti-inflammatory or antibacterial action.
Fluorinated formulations
These products have a much more serious effect on the affected area. However, it is not recommended to use them for too long, since fluoride compounds sometimes cause the opposite effect to the expected one, and the teeth become much more fragile.
Fluorine is an element that must be handled with care. If you look from the positive side, the compounds of this substance help to quickly and efficiently cope with pulsating pain and eliminate scratches on fragile enamel. On the negative side, unfortunately, fluoride accumulates in various organs, thereby forming the fragility of not only damaged teeth, but also healthy bones.
It is for this reason that doctors do not advise offering fluoride pastes to babies and ordinary people in those areas where there is a significant excess of this element in drinking water.
Combined formulations
These are tooth-cleaning pastes containing 2 of the above microelements at once.
Nowadays, combined products are becoming especially popular, since they include both fluorine compounds and calcium compounds in their composition. At the same time, many experts believe that, being in one composition, the ions of these elements give a reaction, during which salts are formed - thus the therapeutic effect is reduced to zero. Dentists agree in one opinion - these formulations need to be changed periodically, alternating with conventional pastes. And only then, if you follow all the rules of hygiene, your teeth will become really strong and your smile healthy.
In order to strengthen problematic enamel, remineralizing paste is just perfect. - after 5-7 days, the sensitivity of damaged enamel to too hot and very cold foods will significantly decrease.
After a month and a half of constant use, you yourself will notice the complete absence of cracks on the surface of your enamel. These scratches will simply fill up with calcium-containing particles. In addition, the surface of the enamel will also undergo a gentle polishing and acquire a radiant, healthy look. After 6 months, the whiteness of the enamel will also be restored.
The very speed of recovery of the damaged enamel will strongly depend on the effectiveness of a particular agent and the frequency of its operation.
