The area where your crown meets your tooth deserves extra attention. Brush twice a day with a soft\u2011bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Take your time around the gumline than scrubbing hard because aggressive brushing can irritate the gums and make the area feel sore.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Flossing daily is the bit but it is probably the habit you will notice most once it becomes automatic.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 A water flosser works well if regular floss feels awkward around the crown especially when you keep avoiding the tricky spot.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Mouthwash can freshen things up though I would treat it as an extra than a replacement for brushing and cleaning between your teeth.<\/p>\r\n
Healthy gums should not stay swollen or bleed every time you clean them. So if the gum around your crown looks red feels tender or starts bleeding do not just assume you have brushed too hard.<\/p>\r\n
If you have cleaned carefully for a couple of weeks and the bad breath is still there book an appointment. A dentist can check whether the crown fits properly and look for decay or gum problems around it.<\/p>\r\n
Crowns are not maintenance\u2011free. They still sit beside living gum tissue and natural teeth so the daily cleaning matters.<\/p>\r\n
Brush gently. Clean between your teeth. Keep an eye on the gum around the crown.. If the smell keeps coming back despite doing everything right get it checked rather than becoming permanently loyal to mint gum.<\/p>\r\n
