subject: General Dentistry - A Summary [print this page] Toothaches or sensitive teeth can cause discomfort to your every day living. Keeping away from just because they cause sensitivity and pain is no way to live comfortably. That is why through your dentist, patients with such problems are customarily dealt with aptly.
There can be numerous causes for toothaches and sensitive teeth normally the decay of the tooth with the nerve showing or the gum abating to such an extent that hot and cold foods can cause painful sensitivity.
Root Canals, Tooth filling, Tooth Sealants, Onlays, Crowns, and all sorts of Dental Hygiene Procedures etc., are regularly practiced procedures carried out by your dentists.
Decay of a tooth can sneak up without warning, and once in a while, when pain strikes, the decay has gone too deep into the tooth - causing major damage and thus needing major treatment. It is possible that this could have been stopped by having gone to see your dentist beforehand so that he could spot the decay at an early stage, and deal with it cheaply and effectively.
We recommend that you see your dentist regularly to ensure your teeth remain in good condition and do not decay.
Dental experts these days highly recommend Preventative Dentistry.
What is Preventative Dentistry?
Preventative Dentistry is used to help each of us preserve our teeth and gums healthy and so to prevent you from making unnecessary visits to the dentist, for fillings or other operations.
Food in modern society contain sugar, which is the main cause of tooth decay, so it is vital that you take the necessary preventative measures for your teeth to stay in optimum condition. Things such as brushing your teeth, using floss, chewing gum and rinsing your mouth with mouth-wash all help in prevent any decay of your teeth.
Now, with so much sugar on the market, bad breath is a widespread situation in the world today. as bad breath, in many cases, it is caused by food remaining in the mouth - on the teeth, tongue, and gums, that bacteria then feast on. Dead and dying bacterial cells then make your breath smell bad.
Brushing your teeth, rinsing your mouth, or chewing some sugar-free gum, after you have eaten, goes a long way in preventing tooth decay and bad breath.
