Blotting Brushes: How To Destroy Plaque Biuildup
by Graeme Dinnen
Imagine you're in a reclining chair with dental equipment around you and that familiar smell of antiseptic. Your fingers lightly grip the arm rests as you attempt to hide your tension. A buzzing drill is heading towards your open mouth. It's usually at this point that you make a last second promise to yourself: if the process over the next 15 minutes is pain-free, you'll promise to take better care of your teeth and gums, beginning tomorrow morning.

Why you CAN'T keep this promise </b>
Keeping your teeth nice and clean and your gums healthy is a daily requirement. Brush properly and you'll reduce the chance of decay; brush improperly or in a hurry and you're a candidate for oral surgery.The chances are that over the years you've been subjected to the dentist's drill or even gum surgery and it's not anything to look forward to. After each procedure your dentist probably told you to brush and floss more regularly, yet the next time you booked an appointment, the condition was still there; nothing had improved.
There's a good reason for this. No matter how well you believe you've brushed and flossed, your mouth will remain dirty. This is due to the fact that you only brushed your teeth - JUST THE ENAMEL. Your teeth, the enamel, comprise a mere 10% of your mouth! Were you ever taught to brush the roof and floor of the mouth, the cheeks, the gums as well as the surface of the tongue? The development of harmful plaque springs from the build-up of toxic bacteria in these places. Try to imagine what you'd smell like if you only washed 10% of your body in the shower or 10% of your face in the morning?
<b>Dentistry Explained</b>
I used to think that if I brushed my teeth a couple of times each day vigorously, flossed occasionally and ate a few apples each week my dental health would be reasonable. So why was I the subject of the dentist's drill so often over the years? That question was answered for me in 2001 by Dr. Joseph Phillips (1922- 2003).
Dr Phillips had the patience to explain to me that dentistry today had lost its way and was more about repairing tooth and gum conditions than preventing them. Although there are some remarkably good dentists around the world, most dentists aren't there to <i>prevent</i> these conditions from developing. Some dentists have admitted that they cannot make a living showing people how to stop tooth decay and prevent gum disease. .If you don't brush and floss correctly you won't stop plaque from building up. Instead you could just push it to a different part of the mouth, or even deep <i>into</i> the gumline.
Then Dr. Phillips told me the single most important factor in dental health:
<b>ELIMINATE THE PLAQUE</b>
Plaque is the sticky, white substance that forms on teeth, between them and in the area between the teeth and the gums, called the sulcus. Harmful toxins released by the 'bad' bacteria in plaque cause the plaque to flourish. This is the principle cause of dental disease and contributes to the body's acidic state. Think about that for a moment, as well as the consequential effects - this 'toxic ' plaque plays a signifificant role in cardiovascular conditions, cancer and diabetes.
But there is hope! An almost forgotten technique that does remove plaque effectively was developed by Dr. Phillips himself in the late 1960's. Known as 'The Blotting Technique ' it works with Blotting Brushes. After his death the research he'd carried out for years was mostly destroyed in a home fire but thankfully the brushes and his technique are still available today. The procedure is simple to carry out and for many has proven to be the key to good oral health for a lifetime.
