Groovy Teeth! (Before & After)

Teeth have several surfaces where cavities can begin to form. Many cavities however, form on the grooves that are located on the biting surfaces of the teeth. These grooves trap food and can be tricky to clean out.

Here is a BEFORE and AFTER picture of a tooth with cavities located in the grooves, and then after the grooves have been cleaned out and a filling placed.

BEFORE: Cavities in the Grooves 

AFTER: Cleaned out Grooves with Dental Filling 

Moral of this story being that ...
              when you brush your teeth make sure that you.

Clean out the grooves really well. This will help you avoid unwanted trips to the dentist.
