Good oral health will always depend on a good routine and hygiene when brushing your
teeth. As a general rule, teeth should be brushed at least three times a day or after every
meal. Some dentists or the best centers of cosmetic dentistry in Tijuana, Los Angeles,
New York and most of the United States recommend brushing your teeth before breakfast
to avoid problems such as bad breath.

The name of wisdom teeth comes from wisdom and judgment, because these molars appear until we are 17-18 years old and that is when we say that we have more "judgment", they are two lower and two higher; one on each side of the mouth.
Not all people should remove their wisdom teeth, that is a myth, according to Luciana Asprino, professor in the area of oral and maxillofacial surgery at the Piracicaba School of Dentistry at the State University of Campinas, comments that there are a minority of patients in which the tooth manages to come out and occlusion occurs, which is when the teeth of the upper arch touch the lower ones when biting, in those cases, surgery is not necessary.

These cavities if not treated in time can cause other diseases such as gingivitis or reach the degree of affecting the root of the tooth.
