    Best Water Flosser – What Is Water Flossing Waterpik vs. Flossing

    August 15, 2022 /

    Some parts of this article are taken directly from our Tooth Decay Masterclass.

    How to Make Dental Fillings Last Longer?

    September 16, 2021 /

    Some parts of this article are taken directly from our Tooth Decay Masterclass. Dental fillings are used to fill a tooth after a cavity (tooth decay) has been removed. Every filling has its estimated lifespan, but you can affect this in many ways (mostly by shortening it), and this is why in this article we will comprehensively describe all the important aspects of fillings durability and lifespan. 1. Types of fillings These days there are three most common types of dental fillings or restorations, each having a different estimated lifespan: Composite resins (so-called white fillings), longevity studies: [1], [2] – they are made from mix of acrylic and ceramic resins…

    What Is Root Resorption? Causes, Symptoms, and What to Do

    January 8, 2021 /

    Teeth root resorption is the loss of dental root structure that can occur as a result of orthodontic treatment. This can be a serious and potentially painful condition, and it is important for patients and their orthodontists to be aware of the risk factors and ways to prevent or manage root resorption. There are two main types of root resorption: external and internal. External root resorption occurs when the root structure is lost due to factors outside of the tooth, such as trauma or pressure from external sources. Internal root resorption, on the other hand, is caused by factors within the tooth, such as inflammation or infection. Orthodontic treatment can…

    Replacing All Natural Teeth Completely With Dental Implants – How Much Does it Cost and is it a Good Idea?

    September 18, 2020 /

    Is it possible to replace all of the natural teeth with dental implants? It is possible to replace all of your natural teeth with dental implants, but it is a complex and costly process that should only be done under the guidance of a qualified dental professional. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically implanted into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. The number of implants needed, as well as the type and size of the replacement teeth, will vary depending on the individual’s mouth and specific needs. The process of replacing all-natural teeth with dental implants typically requires multiple surgeries and a significant amount of time to…

    Acid Reflux (GERD, LPR) Teeth Problems – Enamel Erosion

    June 29, 2020 /

    Disclaimer: please note that this article is mostly focused on GERD/LPR related dental problems and provides only basic advice regarding treating acid reflux itself. Be aware that GERD/LPR may be a serious condition leading to life-threatening diseases like Barett's Esophagus or even esophageal cancer.

    June 12, 2020 /

    Soft foods to eat after tooth extraction After having a tooth extraction, it’s important to follow your dentist’s instructions for caring for the extraction site.
