White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Any tooth or mouth concern should be looked at by a dentist as soon as possible- please seek out help immediately.

In particular:

- swelling: inside your mouth (along or below the gums, the roof of your mouth, under your tongue) or outside of your face can be signs of varying degrees of infection and need to be addressed urgently

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

This article is a great summary for all parents of infants and young children! A few key points are:

(1) Your child's first visit to the dentist should occur by 12 months or within 6 months of eruption of the first tooth- whichever comes first.  We do not expect to see any issues, or even to necessarily be able to do a thorough (or minimal) examination or "cleaning", but we like to see children this young to help guide parents on how to take care of their child's teeth and get the baby used to the dental experience to make future visits as stress-free (and hopefully fun) as possible!

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Enameloplasty is meant to be a very conservative procedure and because the goal is to not remove so much enamel that the underlying dentin (the part of the tooth that has nerve endings) is exposed, there are not many indications for it.

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Concious sedation (whether minimal, moderate or deep) can be used for *any* dental treatment that you find causes you anxiety to think about- anything from regular dental cleanings up to extraction surgery and everything in between. There are potential risks involved in any kind of treatment, but if you are someone that dreads dental visits, enough to be preventing you from attending regular appointments or that cause you to lose sleep the night before, some level of sedation is a fantastic option to consider!

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Xylitol is not only a natural sweetener but also an anti-cavity agent. For anyone suffering from dry mouth or is prone to cavities chewing a sugarless gum with Xylitol can be a benefit to helping stimulate saliva and reduce cavity risk. It is also important it’s not a citrus flavour- the acid can be detrimental.

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Removing plaque with tooth brushing and flossing is not only important for helping control gum disease, but also for helping to control cavity risk (particularly for those of us at high risk for cavities) as the bacteria in plaque biofilm is responsible for creating cavities.
