If you're about to receive dentures, you may not yet be totally devoid of teeth. When there are several natural teeth remaining, you're likely to receive partial dentures, which can be attached to natural teeth (via a clasp) for stability, with your natural teeth acting as abutments. However, when there aren't many remaining natural teeth, and these teeth are in an advanced state of deterioration (meaning they're unable to act as abutments), it's likely that these teeth will be extracted.
With so much focus on environmental issues lately, many people are looking for ways to cut the amount of plastic waste they generate. One popular way of doing this is to swap tubes of toothpaste for chewable toothpaste tablets, which often come packaged in glass or other recyclable materials. But can a tablet a day really keep the dentist away?
How Do Toothpaste Tablets Work?
Toothpaste tablets contain ingredients that help to clean your teeth and freshen your breath, along with a tooth-friendly sweetener such as xylitol.
