Are concerned about loosing teeth?
The biggest cause of tooth loss among adults in the UK is gum disease. Early
signs of this common condition can include sore, swollen or bleeding gums and
bad breath. If left untreated, it can eventually lead to tooth loss.
Gum disease can be avoided or controlled by following a good daily oral
healthcare routine. This includes brushing your teeth twice a day, especially at
bedtime, and cleaning between the teeth and under the gumline.
Hygiene appointments play a key role in combating the disease. During your
appointment we remove any plaque – a constantly forming, sticky layer of bacteria
that irritates your gums and leads to infection. We also polish your teeth, making it
more difficult for the plaque to stick to them.

At lifestyle dental we have st up the fresh breath clinic and Jade can take care of all your dental hygiene and tailor a programme to make sure you keep your teeth.

So if your concerned about your teeth if they are loose then give us a call on 01771 717316

Did you know that a healthy mouth means a healthy body…a healthy heart…even a healthy sex life?  It’s true!  And just by changing certain habits related to oral hygiene you can improve the health of your mouth and teeth and lessen your risk for a whole host of illnesses.

“You cannot be healthy with an unhealthy mouth any more than one can be healthy with an infected foot,” says Richard H. Price, DMD, spokesperson for the American Dental Association and a former clinical instructor at the Boston University Dental School.

He’s absolutely right.

Researchers at the ADA have found that periodontitis (the advanced form of periodontal disease that can cause tooth loss) is linked with health problems, such as cardiovascular disease.  It appears that bacteria in the mouth may cause inflammation throughout the body, including the arteries. Gingivitis (oral inflammation due to bacteria) may also play a role in clogged arteries and blood clots, possibly increasing your risk of a heart attack or stroke.

Gum Disease (also know as periodontitis) is a major cause of early tooth loss.  It is an inflammatory condition that affects your  tissues surrounding a tooth.  These are the structures that help support the teeth and hold them in place.

    What causes Gum disease?

Plaque bacteria are present within your mouth, and this is why you should brush your teeth to remove these deposits to prevent the bacteria from forming cavities or producing bad breath.  However, what you may not be aware of is how destructive this bacteria is to the health of the gums.

   Without effect cleaning the bacteria are able to colonise and form pockets within the gums. These bacteria produce toxins which lead to periodontal breakdown.

  Therefore the bacteria destroy the supporting structures, including connective tissue and bone.

How Do I know if I have got Gum Disease?

Some of the signs may include:  

• Bleeding gums during tooth brushing
• Sensitive or red inflamed gums which can ruin a smile
• Bad Breath which can cause you embarrassment and problems.
• Loose teeth or teeth which have moved causing gaps between the teeth

These are just some of the signs that may be apparent to you.

However, by visiting your dental professional regularly gum disease can be detected by thorough examination of the gum tissues and using radiographs to detect any changes in bone levels.
