Post Body

I brush my teeth 2 times a day. I've switched to electric toothbrush the past year. Been using mouthwash 2x a day but switched to night only the past year.

Tartar has been growing a lot after high school (I'm about to graduate university). I rarely drink any sweets. I don't know whats the cause of the tartar buildup. Also my breathe stinks sometimes although I do brush my tongue.

Anyway my dentist says he can't clean all my tartar. Forgot what he said but I assume he could'n't reach the areas but the brown buildup is very visible.

Should I switch dentist and is he correct?
