Sometimes I get a build-up on my teeth which does not go, even with brushing thoroughly several times a day. Will my bath be valid even though the water does not reach every part of my teeth?
I can remove this build-up from some areas if I scrape my teeth with a sharp object, but I am worried about damaging my teeth and injuring myself. Do I need to do this for my bath to be valid?

In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth. Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
The build up on teeth does not affect your Ghusl or Wudhu at all.
If the build-up of tartar is bothering you, visit the dentist for a cleanup, and there after use teeth flossing before brushing your teeth, to ensure the build-up is decreased. In any case ask your dentist for more advice.
I think it would be hugely beneficial if you start using the Miswaak. There are manifold spiritual and worldly benefits of it.
Aisha Radhi-Allahu-Anha said:”The Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, ‘It (i.e. Miswak) is a purification for the mouth and it is a way of seeking Allah’s pleasures.” Sahih Bukhari
