Are the blue arrows pointing to a pit, or something else? What is the best treatment/maintenance advice for it? Do i need to get a filling for this? Do you recommend a dental pit and fissure sealants? And if you recommend to just monitor it, what am i actually looking out for? to see if the pit feels wider/deeper over time? anything else to look out for?
What are the black marks/lines on the molar?
M30, with a history of many fillings because of bad brushing techniques and poor brushing schedule. It has improved over time with a basic electric oral-b toothbrush and use of dental pick to floss.
Should i be using a Colgate Prevident toothpaste (1.1% sodium Fluoride) or 3M Clinpro 5000 Anti-Cavity Toothpaste (1.1% Sodium Fluoride)? If so, how frequently? or should i continue to use the regular toothpaste with 0.22 to 0.32% sodium fluoride(I already have 5 of these toothpaste tubes)?
I have previously used Colgate optic white, about 2-3 times in a week (one with 0.76% sodium momoflorosulfate and 2% hydrogen peroxide as the whitening agent).
