Yes. There are many dental conditions such as tooth decay, periodontal disease and grinding that may not cause you symptoms until in a more advanced stage. As with most health issues, the earlier these conditions are detected, it is likely the less treatment will be required and therefore less cost to you and the better long term prognosis for your teeth and gums. We recommend an exam every 6 months.
It is important for children at an early age to become comfortable with visiting the dentist. We recommend you bring your child for "a ride in the chair" as early as 2 years, a time when most of the baby teeth have already emerged. It is more than likely the child will be relaxed and enjoy the experience, than under stress of a sore tooth needing treatment. Statistics show that over 50% of Australian 6 year olds are affected by tooth decay so we need to be proactive in reducing this occurrence.
In most cases, gums only bleed when touched by your brush or floss if they are inflamed. Gums become inflamed when there is a build-up of soft plaque and hard calculus on your teeth. It may be a sign of the presence of gingivitis or more severe gum disease. You should see a dentist for a clean to remove the plaque and calculus build-up and for instruction on how to improve your oral hygiene. We recommend an exam and clean every 6 months to keep your gums healthy.
Yes. Research shows that oral health has an influence on systemic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, asthma, arthritis, premature labour and low birth weights. In addition, poor oral health can lead to eating difficulties, malnutrition and reduced self-confidence and mental wellbeing. Likewise, systemic factors such as diabetes, medications and smoking can affect your teeth and gums. It is therefore of great importance to your general health to maintain good oral health and vice-versa.
The soft plaque that forms on your teeth is quickly hardened by minerals in your saliva. These hard deposits are called calculus and are not able to be removed at home by brushing and flossing. We use special equipment to remove calculus effectively. If calculus is left, over time it will cause gum disease resulting in bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, pain and the need to remove teeth. No matter how well you brush, calculus inevitably forms and so we recommend a clean every 6 months.
Decay is caused by bacteria in the soft plaque that forms on your teeth after each meal. Acids produced by these bacteria erode the tooth surface and cause a "hole". Factors that increase your risk of decay include: poor oral hygiene; a diet high in sugary and acidic foods and drinks; dry mouth; certain medications; and smoking. If left undetected, decay increases in size until in causes pain and infects the tooth's nerve. A 6 monthly exam helps to ensure early detection and treatment of decay.
Radiographs, or x-rays, enable your dentist to see hard tissues that are not visible in the mouth such as the support bone and internal layers of the teeth. As such, x-rays may be required by your dentist for the timely detection of conditions such as decay, gum disease, abscess and other pathologies. Most commonly, we recommend a set of x-rays every 2 years for general screening purposes. Additionally, a more specific x-ray may be required if you present with symptoms.
