What can I use to clean the bad smell of porcelain teeth?

There are many patients who use porcelain teeth clinically, but if the root canal treatment is not completed well during the whole process, it will easily cause inflammation, and finally emit a foul odor due to decay. In more serious cases, the tooth root will become necrotic. When faced with this situation, the first thing to do is to brush your teeth with toothpaste powder. If conditions permit, you can also use dental floss. In addition, you must maintain oral hygiene and develop a good habit of brushing your teeth in the morning and evening and rinsing your mouth after meals.

1. Why do porcelain teeth smell bad?

1. Without a complete root canal treatment, the corruption secreted by the inflammation inside the root canal overflows and causes bad breath;

2. The gum edge of the porcelain teeth is not properly processed, and food residues enter the gap between the porcelain teeth and the teeth, which causes odor over time;

3. Many doctors use self-curing resin to repair broken teeth and then make porcelain teeth. Self-curing resin is prone to odor over time.

2. How to clean porcelain teeth

1. Strictly maintain oral hygiene; you can brush your teeth three times a day, each time for three minutes, using a soft-bristled round-headed toothbrush to gently brush vertically, inside and outside. If conditions permit, you can also use dental floss to clean your teeth.

2. Avoid chewing hard food with newly made porcelain teeth; avoid eating sticky and high-sugar foods. 3. Seek medical attention and receive prompt treatment if you feel any discomfort.

3. What to do if porcelain teeth have odor

1. Check your teeth

If there is an odor after having porcelain teeth, you first need to have a comprehensive examination of the teeth, because if there is a gap at the joint between the porcelain teeth and the abutment teeth, it is easy for plaque to accumulate, forming tartar and other odors. A comprehensive dental examination can detect tartar and clean it promptly to eliminate the odor of porcelain teeth.

2. Anti-inflammatory

Porcelain teeth may cause gingivitis, periodontitis and other inflammations due to poor oral hygiene caused by the porcelain teeth not fitting tightly or having overhangs, which may cause bad breath. At this time, you must seek medical attention in time and receive anti-inflammatory treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Oral hygiene

After having porcelain teeth, the appearance of odor may be due to the accumulation of food debris in the teeth or poor oral hygiene and bacterial growth caused by poor porcelain tooth inlay. In addition to rinsing your mouth after every meal, it is also best to use dental floss to clean the gaps between your teeth and go to the hospital for regular teeth cleaning to avoid odor after having porcelain teeth.

4. Chewing certain foods

There will be an odor after having porcelain teeth done. You can temporarily eliminate this odor by eating more aromatic foods, or chewing gum to temporarily cover up the odor. Generally, we can eat more honey, lemon, parsley, milk, grapefruit, orange peel and so on.
