The edge packing extra composite has to absorb heavy vertical pressure every time you chew a nut or hard crust. While resin handles front slicing well, intense vertical crushing can crack the composite down the middle.<\/p>\r\n<p>Another problem is food packing between the teeth. Premolars have broad, flat contact areas. If the dentist does not sculpt a tight contact point, lunch debris gets wedged between the teeth every time you eat meat or apples, leaving your gums sore and inflamed.<\/p>\r\n<p>Plaque also settles easily along the join. You have to thread floss right down into that crevice every single night, or tea and red wine will leave a dirty brown line right along the bond. An electric brush helps, but an interdental stick does the real work.<\/p>\r\n<p>Beyond that, leave hard ice cubes alone. Don&#8217;t crunch through unpopped popcorn kernels.
