Dental Health Week!

Dental Health Facts

Dental Health week is an annual oral health awareness event. Its aim is to educate Australians about the importance of good oral hygiene and how to maintain healthy teeth. As from the recent studies, data shows nearly 40% Australians never floss or clean in-between their teeth. Your toothbrush cannot reach in between your teeth, flossing at least once a day is recommended by the dentists. Flossing removes plaque and food in between teeth which causes gum disease and cavities. Next time, ask your dentist to demonstrate how to floss properly and ask about the size of inter dental brushes suitable for you to clean in between your teeth if the gaps are larger. Sometimes it is tricky to floss, initially your gums will bleed and you will experience pain but within 1-2 weeks everything will settle down.

Nearly 65% of Australians haven’t seen a dentist in the last two years. Regular visit to the dentist is essential for healthy teeth and gums. Your dentist will treat and tailor an oral hygiene routine for your oral conditions, early detection of cavities can save you from expensive and painful experiences. 12 Monthly check-up and clean saves your gums from gum disease and cavities.

At least 50% of Australians around you are not brushing twice a day. As we are all aware brushing removes plaque which causes decay and gum disease. Always use soft-bristled brush with small head, spend 2 minutes brushing your teeth every morning and evening, try to avoid brushing too hard as this can damage the surface of your teeth and gums and use pea sized fluoride toothpaste.

Baby Teeth

How to look after your child’s baby teeth?

Baby teeth are an integral part of your child’s overall health and development. Your Child’s baby teeth develop while babies are still in the womb. Good dental care should start even before the first baby tooth arrives. When your child starts teething, it can be a tough time for you and your child. To make your child comfortable during teething give them a lot of loving attention, chilled teeth rings (not Frozen) and the dummy can sometimes do the trick but avoid using honey or jam (can cause decay). Baby teeth help your child with eating, speaking clearly and holding a space for permanent teeth to come through.

Following are the few tips to look after your child’s baby teeth:

Brush twice a day – Always supervise your kids when they are brushing to make sure they are not rushing or missing some teeth while brushing or eating toothpaste
Use a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste-use a tiny smear of toothpaste for children up to 3 years old and pea-sized amount for children 3-6 years old, encourage your child to spit the toothpaste after they finish brushing their teeth
Brush gently– start brushing your child’s teeth thoroughly covering all surfaces of teeth, brush teeth in a circular motion.
Healthy eating– avoid sweet sticky foods, avoid putting sweet drinks and juices in your child,s milk bottles or sippy cups. Water is always the best option

Start your little ones on proper oral hygiene instructions and regular dental check-ups as soon as they start having their first baby teeth.

Healthy teeth tips!

5 TIPS FOR HEALTHY TEETH AND GUMS

HEALTHY TEETH

Brush twice a day– Brushing at least twice a day reduces your chances of getting decay and bad breath. Brushing removes all the excess food and plaque residue on the teeth, gums & tongue and keeps your teeth healthy and clean. Always use soft bristle brush to clean your teeth and make sure you are not rubbing them too hard. Best time to brush teeth is after meals.
Floss – Flossing removes food and plaque buildup in between your teeth. If you are not flossing, you are missing 35% of teeth area. Flossing saves you from getting cavities in between your teeth and bad breath. Once you start flossing, your gums will bleed for day or two and then they will settle down with regular flossing.
Eat a balanced diet – Studies have proven that diet high in sugars and acids is not only causing damage to your teeth but also to your overall health. By eliminating sugary snacks and drinks from your everyday life you can save your teeth and general health. Substitute juices and soft drinks with water, eat fresh fruit and vegetables and limit the intake of sweet treats. Bacteria in dental plaque change sugars into acids which causes cavities and damage to teeth.
See your Dentist regularly – Regular dental appointments can detect early decay and any other dental problems before they start causing you pain and discomfort. Getting your checkup and scale & clean done on 6-12 monthly basis reduces your chances of having gum disease. At Heritage Dental Group, we take special care in training our patients in good brushing and flossing habits.
Avoid smoking and Tobacco – As we are all aware of side effects of smoking and tobacco, Smoking and tobacco can stain your teeth, gives you bad breath, chances of oral health and increases your chances of periodontal disease which increases inflammation around your teeth and results in losing teeth. Talk to our dentist how this affects your oral health.

Your Oral Health and General Health!

Connection between Oral Health and overall health!

Research shows and suggests that your oral health and general health are interrelated. On one side, a healthy mouth can save you from medical problems, on the other hand unhealthy and poor oral hygiene can cause you general health problems. As we all know, we should brush, floss and see our dentist for regular dental check-ups to make sure we have optimum oral health. Do you know that your oral health is directly connected to your entire body well-being? To know more in detail on this topic, here is a link to Australian Dental Association and Dental Health Services Victoria.

Gum Disease and tooth decay- Researches have proved that people with gum-disease or periodontitis are more likely to have heart disease. People with gum disease have inflammation in their gum tissue and bacteria produce toxins that go down in the blood stream through normal chewing and brushing.
Tobacco use– Smoking results in bad breath, stained teeth and increases your chances of developing mouth and lung cancer.
Diet– A diet high in sugars and acids increases your risk of cavities and your general health concerns like Diabetes and Obesity.
Poor oral hygiene habits– Not brushing your teeth regularly and on right time, not flossing regularly and building up of plaque on teeth.
