Hi sir, while salt water and turmeric can support overall oral hygiene, they should not replace brushing with fluoride toothpaste, flossing, and regular dental checkups. These professional methods are far more effective in preventing decay and staining.
Bacteria's releasing acids that erode tooth enamel, leading to cavities (decay).
Certain foods, drinks (like coffee or tea), tobacco use, or even some medications can stain teeth and lead to dark patches.
Next Steps
To prevent tooth decay and black patches, it's essential to brush your teeth at least twice a day, floss daily, limit sugary foods, visit the dentist regularly, and stay hydrated to maintain healthy saliva production.
