Cleanliness next to Godliness – Tooth brushing
One’s initiation to sound dental health starts with good and regular tooth brushing habits. asics 2018 moncler soldes canada goose 2019 nike air pegasus nike roshe run Achat Puma nike cortez Tooth brushing twice a day for at least two minutes per session is a universal recommendation that goes handy with using a dental floss at least once in a day. canada goose en ligne doudoune canada goose pas cher basket timberland uggs pas cher en ligne puma chaussures A survey in school children in the U.K. ugg enfant canada goose chaussure asics pas cher by Macgregor et al reported that 75 per cent of the respondents brushed their teeth in the morning before school whereas only 23 per cent reported brushing before going to bed at night. doudoune femme moncler Chaussures New Balance nike air max tavas puma 2018 pas cher doudoune femme moncler canada goose nike hypervenom Going to bed without brushing is like carrying all that food that is decaying in your mouth till morning, this encourages bacterial plaque build-up and would eventually cause gum disease and also the acids liberated by the bacteria will cause cavities on your teeth by eroding away the calcium in your teeth. moncler paris nike air max 90 pas cher ugg australia pas cher timberland homme canada goose Blousons newbalance 2018 This process is further aided and abetted by the fact that the protective salivary flow and coating that bathes the teeth through the day is greatly reduced in the night and this allows bacteria to thrive.
It is recommended to brush one’s teeth twice a day with a soft-bristled brush that fits one’s mouth in size and shape, giving you easy access to reach all areas.
It is also important to replace one’s toothbrush every three or four months or sooner if the bristles are frayed, as a worn toothbrush will not provide the efficiency and effectiveness that is required of a good job in cleaning the teeth.
American Dental Association (ADA) recommends using fluoride toothpaste and a proper brushing technique by placing the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gums and gently moving the brush back and forth in short tooth-wide strokes. bottes ugg pas cher air max 1 og moncler paris canada goose Blousons nike air max 2012 timberland pas cher First brushing the outer surfaces and then progressing to the inner surfaces and thereafter continuing to the chewing surfaces of the teeth. doudoune moncler pas cher ugg france moncler Doudounes vente de newbalance However to clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, one would have to tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes. timberland soldes prix doudoune moncler Finally it is imperative to brush the tongue to remove odour-causing bacteria and have fresh breath.
Tooth decay-causing bacteria could still linger between the teeth where toothbrush bristles cannot reach and this is where flossing helps to remove plaque and food particles from between the teeth and under the gum line. asics chaussures puma basket bottes timberland ugg zalando Most adult toothpaste formulations provide combined effects of caries protection through various fluoride compounds such as Sodium Fluoride (NaF), Stannous Fluoride (SnF2), or Monofluorophosphate (MFP2) with a blend of other agents employed to control plaque, tartar and gum disease through Triclosan or Zinc Citrate, etc.
Hot and Cold Foods Tooth ache – Dentinal Hypersensitivity
A short, sharp pain that endures for a short while on consuming cold or hot beverages or foods is something that troubles a significant portion of our population. puma pas cher canada goose puma sneakers timberland chaussures Achat Puma This occurs when the hard shiny lacquer of enamel on the surface of the teeth (or the white cementum of roots) is worn off and the underlying porous, softer and yellower dentine is exposed. doudoune canada goose timberland pas cher timberland Cold or heat causes the movement of fluid within tiny tubes (pores) located in the dentin (dentinal tubules) triggering off the small nerves within these tubules which go all the way through the dental pulp into the roots of the teeth. asics pas cher nike x fragment nike air max femme nike internationalist This pain can be a sharp shooting pain or a dull tenderness that could last a while.
The causes of teeth sensitivity could vary due to a faulty or harsh brushing technique, clenching and wearing of teeth at night (bruxism) or could be due to a gum disease or cavities, or it could just be worn out fillings that need replacements.
Various formulations of tooth pastes that rely on different mechanisms of action are available to treat this common malady. nike dunk moncler homme soldes asics chaussures moncler soldes nike magista bottes ugg pas cher Potassium nitrate causes interruption of the nervous response to this pain stimulus. ugg australia pas cher timberland soldes nike air huarache nike air max flyknit canada goose ugg australia pas cher femme uggs pas cher en ligne timberland femme pas cher Strontium chloride based tooth pastes causes occlusion or closure of the exposed pores in dentine of teeth or cementum of root surfaces wherein the nerves lie. nike roshe run bottes ugg soldes newbalance 2018 puma pas cher bottes timberland pas cher On the other hand, Bioactive glass lends a “biomimetic” approach by increasing the mineral density of the dentin surface and closure of open tubules with calcium and phosphate. moncler 2018 asics soldes puma 2018 shop Soldes Asics newbalance 2018 pas cher Whereas, ProArgin tooth pastes use a biological approach using arginine, a component of saliva that physically adsorbs onto the surface of teeth and forms a glycoprotein layer that is typically alkaline and thereafter promotes the deposit or remineralization of calcium and phosphate on the dentinal surface from one’s own buffer of saliva. nike air max 90 femme gris rose ugg pas cher Canada Goose Trillium Parka nike air max 95 veste homme canada goose pas cher ugg australia pas cher femme nike roshe run 2017 ugg boots ugg femme puma basket bottes ugg soldes However, Tooth mousse consisting of a protein, ubiquitous in milk, formulated as Casein Phosphopeptide – Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP could also help in treating dentinal sensitivity, albeit its effects might be transient. nike air max tavas asics sneakers bottes ugg pas cher The newest treatment modality would be to treat teeth sensitivity with lasers (Diodes and Erbium lasers) in combination with the above mentioned desensitisation tooth pastes or without.
Dentistry – Branches of Specialization
Dentistry offers five clinical branches of specialized treatment and three non-clinical areas of expertise.
Prosthodontics – this branch deals with the replacement of missing teeth with fixed or removable artificial substitutes
Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics – which deals with the restoration of teeth with fillings and root canal treatment of infected teeth
Orthodontics – is a branch which deals with the correction of malpositioned or misaligned teeth.
Pedodontics and Preventive dentistry – is a specialty that deals with children, including prevention of tooth decay, restoration of children’s teeth, dealing with special children and overall considerations of children’s dental development including counselling.
