Going beyond the Brushing in the City of Leeds

Thursday, October 31st, 2013

464425_blogThere is nothing wrong with using a good old fashioned toothbrush in the city of Leeds; it is a very good way of removing bacteria off the surfaces of your teeth and there are some absolute crackers to choose from on sale in the shops- along with the toothpastes that go with them. But it is proven that sometimes, just brushing is not enough to get a thorough job done and get in between the nooks and crannies between the teeth and up about the gums. This is why you need to enlist the help of other gadgets- especially as you get older and gaps start to appear between your teeth. So then, you would be wise to go out and buy a spool of dental floss, maybe some tiny inter-dental brushes and a mouthwash too, and when you have them, learn to use them properly so that you can remove all the food from your teeth and gums, as this can lead to bacteria setting in and plaque forming. If you want to cover all bases, ask your dentist for advice about what’s out there for you. Get this right in the long run and you will be avoiding some extremely nasty conditions rocking up in your mouth in the future.

Dental Implants- better than your Teeth in the City of Leeds

Tuesday, October 29th, 2013

Happy buddies laughingThere can be no doubt about the way modern dental implant treatment has taken the world of tooth-loss by storm; it has never been easier to do, thanks largely to huge leaps in technology over the past 30 years, which makes this once difficult procedure as easy as any other you may have done at your dentists in the city of Leeds. In barely 2 hours, a laser will have made the pin-point incision through your gum and into the jawbone after which, the small titanium root is screwed into place. There are many benefits to going down this route; implants are very strong and once in, life-long friends. They are very resistant to infection and will give and incredible amount of support to any new fitting that is attached to them. For these reasons alone, they are often considered to be more reliable than the original root and tooth that has been lost; not that this is a reason you should go out and lose more teeth, but it is testament to just how good dental implants have become.

There are so many reasons why you should whiten your Teeth in Leeds

Sunday, October 27th, 2013

4683491_blogOne of the beautiful things about how modern dentistry and the products that you can buy in Leeds have developed is that everyone can afford to have their teeth done-up today and one of the simplest ways to get a cracking smile is to have your teeth whitened. Now there are lots of ways of having this done so you should have a look around first before settling on a choice. The quickest way is to pop in to see your dentist and get your teeth laser whitened; it won’t cost a lot, you will be in and out in no time and the outcome will leave you rocking with sex appeal. Of course, you can do it yourself and there are plenty of products that you can purchase from the chemists in order to get the job done. However, there are reasons why you should get your teeth brightened up. Faded teeth can let down your appearance and this can affect the way you act in company, and if your smile is important to you in your line of work, you’ll want to portray a healthy looking set of teeth. White teeth will also help to maintain your confidence when you express yourself and they give off an air of healthiness- which can look good on your ‘CV’. Looking good can help to impress people and if you smile with confidence and your teeth look healthy, it gives of an aura that you know how to look after yourself.

Paralysing Periodontal Disease from the off in Central Leeds

Saturday, October 26th, 2013

283489_blogIt is very easy for plaque to build up in your mouth, especially if you aren’t on the ball in Leeds with your oral hygiene. The thing is though, every issue that can arise in your mouth starts with plaque and it is essential that between you and your dentist, you stop it from doing its worst; if you don’t overcome it in the early stages, you can set off a very bad chain reaction. The plaque will first harden into tartar around the base of the teeth and lead you straight into gum disease, whilst also cutting loose on the surfaces of your teeth and causing decay. Once it has got to this level, it is hard to fight back against and any longer it will start to tamper with the roots and the gums below- and inevitable tooth-loss will follow shortly after; you will also be walking the gauntlet of an abscess forming- very nasty.  This is what is referred to as periodontal disease and now the treatment to patch you up can get messy and frightfully expensive. It may well involve tissue grafts to rejuvenate the gums and maybe even bone grafts to repair the damage done to the jaws; even then, you will be dicing with disaster in the future unless you start looking after yourself better.

The startling effects of Scaling and Polishing in Leeds

Thursday, October 24th, 2013

585986_blogIt is always lovely to have fresh and clean teeth and brushing, flossing and rinsing with a mouthwash is a great way to achieve this each day. However, it is even better when you get a really deep clear-out from your dentist in Leeds. Your dentist can reach places you can’t go and alongside from scaling any rubbish from the surfaces of your teeth, you can be scaled below the gum-line as well for a really proper clean, and your mouth will feel fresh and healthy after having this done. You should also feel happy in the knowledge that any bacteria has been cleared away and that your teeth and gums will be healthy for the foreseeable future. After a scaling, the dentist will normally follow this up with a polish; this will serve to not just brighten up the teeth’s enamel, but it will make it hard for bacteria to cling and settle on the surfaces. Both are quick and painless treatments but afterwards, your mouth will feel remarkable and look great afterwards.

Good diets lead to good teeth in Central Leeds

Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013

2429879_blogIt is all very well fending off bacteria from the mouth- with wonderful toothbrushes, pastes, flosses and mouthwashes, and never stop doing so either, as this will serve you well in the future. However, you really need to be wary of what you are putting in your mouth in the first place and maintain a quality balanced diet to keep your immune system strong and maintain high levels of saliva in the mouth at all times. But certain sugary and stodgy foods cause more havoc with your teeth and gums and can be harder to remove from around your mouth, so you will need to be aware of this. On the flip side of this though, things like celery, cranberries and raisins are incredibly good and healthy for your gums. It can be a bit of a minefield to tread, but the answer here is moderation, balance and education. Talk with your hygienist or a dietician so that you learn about the best nutritional foods for both your mouth and body. No-one is suggesting that you should abstain from a blow-out every now and then, but if you are putting in a strong core of food each day as well, you should keep your body and mouth strong throughout your life and give you the chances to fight off the evils that threaten your mouth each day in central Leeds.

Plaque be gone! Brushing away the bad in the City of Leeds

Tuesday, October 22nd, 2013

297243_blogOne of the reasons you brush your teeth a few times a day in the city of Leeds is to try to prevent the build up of plaque around the teeth; by doing so, you will be stopping it from developing into tartar and then killing your gums with disease and ruining the teeth with decay. Food and drink can easily form bacteria on the surfaces of the teeth and this is what plaque loves most. However, aside from the benefits of flossing and a good mouthwash, fine brushing with good quality toothpaste is still a vital ingredient in your oral hygiene and getting this right is vitally important for removing plaque. You can buy a dye to highlight any areas that may be forming this build up of bacteria but you will also have to get a quality brush in order to remove it. Hand held brushes are fine and there are many different ones to choose from, though if you want a thorough clean, there are some superb electric ones on the market that are specifically designed to take plaque and tartar out. Chat with your dentist, even go on line and do a little research first; it may take a while to get the one that works best for you, but persevere, as the removal of plaque is essential for the future of your oral health.
