Periodontitis disease needs immediate treatment

Periodontitis dental disease is very dangerous disease, which loosens root tissues and in extreme cases, tooth leaves its position and drops off from its place.
Periodontitis is a slow death of a tooth. It starts when a person doesn’t take proper care of his/her teeth.

Cleaning, Scaling and curettage is the first step towards Periodontitis treatment. Dentists first clean the infected tooth and nearby areas, to prevent disease from spreading. This disease is associated with proper hygiene and lack of it will definitely yield Periodontitis, in later stages. In extreme cases, dentists’ advice surgery and remove infected tooth. Cleaning of surrounding areas for prevention of disease in subsequent parts is next best step for dental surgery.

Mild antibiotics can inhibit growth of bacteria, leading to temporary blockage of disease, but as soon as the antibiotics are stopped, bacteria again get active. So it is best to take necessary precautions, go for remedies, and abide by dentist’s instructions.

Any small mistake may result in resurfacing of disease, with greater adverse affects.

Sensitive Teeth Treatments Need Specialists

Many a time’s people experience pain from consuming hot tea, cold drinks and even sweets. They even fear from touching tongue or tooth with other tooth or tongue.

This pain or discomfort refrain them from consuming too hot or cold things. This condition is better named as tooth
sensitivity. Tooth sensitivity is classified into two types:

Dentinal: the middle layer called Dentin is exposed due to erosion of outer layer called enamel or inner layer called centum. The nerve ending is exposed to middle layer called Dentin. Exposure of dentin leads to dentinal tooth sensitivity.
Pulpal: the pulp or center of tooth is of blood vessels and nerves. If in case the pulp is exposed then it causes pulpal sensitivity.

While dentinal sensitivity may affect surrounding teeth as well, pulpal sensitivity affects that particular tooth which is associated with it.

Dentinal sensitivity is curable but pulpal sensitivity requires professional touch to treat it.

There are some precautionary measures to be adopted to prevent dentinal sensitivity:

Use super soft tooth brush. Brush in upward-downward manner, rather than from side to side.

Treat your teeth for grinding and clenching

Toothpaste has to be approved by ADA and use fluoride tooth paste meant especially for sensitive tooth care treatment.

Brush and floss daily two times.

This will prevent you from dentinal sensitivity of teeth.
