Answer by  canadabee (932)

Tartar is a natural biproduct of eating and drinking, so everyone gets tartar on their teeth every day. You can remove tartar from on your teeth by brushing, and from between your teeth by flossing. Mouthwashing is also helpful, since it prevents tartar and plaque from spreading through bacterial growth.

Tartar on your teeth is simply plaque that has hardened and cannot be removed with a toothbrush. It is caused by bad dental habits such as not brushing, not flossing, eating sugary foods, not visiting the dentist and not eating foods like crunchy vegetables that assist in keeping teeth clean.
