Dentistry is not expensive but neglect is!

Dental cost can definitely be kept to a minimal by practicing preventive dental treatment. This implies everything that can be done even before birth ,inutero like counseling to parents regarding maternal nutrition, importance of taking calcium supplements, mother’s oral hygiene, maternal infections, certain medications used during pregnancy and so on. After child birth ,breast feeding should be highly promoted. If bottle fed, use physiological nipples rather than the conventional ones as there is a huge difference between suckling and mere sucking of the bottle nipple .Latter can lead to many orofacial deformities as it does not allow proper movement of tongue and lower jaw. Mothers should be warned against inadvertent use of pacifiers and early childhood caries (nursing bottle caries) which occurs when child sleeps with milk in the mouth due to overnight feeding. Simple topical fluorides and pit and fissure sealants help to prevent caries in a child. Brushing should be supervised .Keep an eye on oral habits like thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, mouth breathing etc. Get a Dental check up done once in 6 months. Restore decayed tooth as early as possible. Do not wait for pain to get treatment done. Waiting will cost you more. Remember dentistry is not expensive but neglect is!

Are you doing it the right way?? We Dev dental care a leading dental clinic in Calicut provides lot of tactics to overcome your teeth problems. We are one of the leading Dentist In Chalappuram Calicut. 

Brushing is the most simple and recommended way of keeping one’s mouth fresh and clean. But unfortunately many of us do not know the correct way of brushing. Let us discuss it now.
Place your toothbrush at 45 °angulation to the gumline and move in small circulars motion(2/3teeth at a time) and flick the brush down away from the gumline. Repeat the same on inner surface. Then brush the chewing surface using back and forth movement. 2 min brushing twice daily is mandatory. Do not scrub brush the tooth horizontally as this can cause wedge shaped defects on tooth and loss of enamel ,which is the main cause for sensitivity. Brushing should be followed by massaging your gums with finger tip. Powered toothbrushes are now available for enhanced cleaning and for those with limited dexterity.

Few more tips to add

Replace brush every 6 months or when bristles start to fray
Use the right brush and right tooth toothpaste.
Brush your tongue as well.

Most of the children face some kind of dental issues from early childhood onwards. We, Dev Dental Care provide professional dental  treatment and dental care for toddlers, children and adolescents.

START YOUR CHILD’S DENTAL HEALTH CARE NOW

Primary teeth / milk teeth are usually ignored in case of children. Parents believe they will get replaced later and overlook them. When ignored, defects in primary teeth can get carried onto the permanent teeth and jaw structure.
General guidelines related to pediatric oral care:
1. Dental health care should start right from birth. Child’s gum pads should be cleaned with a soft wet cotton cloth after every feeding.
2.When the first tooth pops in, use a soft bristled kids toothbrush in addition to massaging gum tissues.
3.Amount of toothpaste should be minimal(grain sized for <3yrs and pea sized > 3yrs).Child should be taught to spit the toothpaste and not to swallow it
4.Brushing should be supervised by parents until he /she develops brushing skills.
5.Do not let your child sleep with a bottle of milk or juice other than plain water as this could lead to early childhood caries.
6.Promote healthy habits by limiting the amount and frequency of sweetened and sticky food. Encourage to wash mouth after every food intake.
7.Lift your child’s lip regularly to check for suspicious white or brown spots on teeth.
8.Talk to your dentist if your child regularly sucks pacifier or thumb or any other habits.
Baby teeth may be small but they are very important. They are placeholders for the future adult teeth. Proper care and timely intervention can retain healthy set of teeth.

We all know the importance of teeth but most of us do not care much about oral hygiene and overlook dental issues in their early stage.

Today we are going to know about ORAL HABITS IN CHILDREN

Oral habits are acquired as a result of repetition initially in a conscious level and later enter into realms of unconsciousness. Common oral habits and their dental sequelae are discussed here.
Prolonged thumb sucking and tongue thrusting forward while swallowing are habits very commonly seen in children. When not intervened ,problems like teeth proclination, open bite, and narrow arches can result.
Mouth breathing habit can be habitual or anatomic due to defect in lip morphology or due to nasal obstructions. Child may have long narrow face (known as adenoid facies) .Dry mouth predisposes them to dental caries and gum problems too.
Bruxism or night grinding of teeth causes teeth wear, fracture of tooth and fillings ,jaw pain etc. Other habits seen are lip biting ,nail biting etc.
Treatment aims to remove the cause first then breaking the habit using appliance therapy and correction of malocclusion using removable or fixed orthodontic treatment. Behavior modification, reminder therapy ,psychological approaches are all part of the treatment program.
Oral habits can have deep rooted psychological impact on children. Hence need for early intervention and essential care should not be overlooked upon.

TIRED OF LOOSE LOWER DENTURE?

Patients often complain of ill fitting lower denture. Unlike the upper denture which can rely on suction to get seated, lower dentures do not have that liberty especially when the teeth has been out for quite a long time and jawbone has suffered significant resorption making it almost flat. Tongue movements worsens the situation. In order to retain lower dentures in mouth patients have to work to train their cheek and tongue muscles .Patience and practice are the keywords. Practice to eat and speak with dentures in your mouth .Use of denture adhesives would help you with this for a few days until you get adjusted and gain control over your tongue muscles. Increased salivary flow, difficulty in speaking, minor sores and irritation are normal the first time you wear. All will be fine in a couple of days provided all the instructions are properly followed. Visit DEV DENTAL CARE to know more.
