Is tartar on teeth serious?
It’s all starts with this, ‘plaque’. And what is plaque? Plaque is soft food residue left on your teeth after you eat or drink something. If this layer is not properly removed, it hardens due to minerals that your body produces itself. Especially the places where you don’t reach well with your toothbrush or toothpick are the places where you see a lot of tartar building up. But also in places where your body produces these minerals, such as near the salivary glands. This is especially in the floor of the mouth and the molars in the back of your mouth.
Tartar is harmful because it contains all kinds of bad bacteria that make your body sick. The longer the tartar remains, the more bad bacteria it will contain and the sicker it can make you.
#1 Secret Side affects of tartar
"Can I scrape tartar off my own teeth?"
But when does tartar start to have unpleasant side effects?
Tartar will have unpleasant side effects when it is on your teeth for a long time (weeks, months and even years). the bacteria in the tartar can become so aggressive that they make the gums and underlying bone very sick. We call this Periodontitis.
These inflammations have major consequences for your body. Your body produces immune cells that target these bad bacteria in your tartar around your gums. But if there are too many bad bacteria to fight against, it will not work and the body will become sick. Think of Diabetes, Cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and so on.

Then your teeth and molars can become loose. I don’t think you’re into that? So please take good care of your teeth because they don’t grow back anymore unfortunately. Gone is gone.
