Hus'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - Choosing the best toothbrush

General Tips for Choosing a Toothbrush

There are certain characteristics that you should look for in whatever toothbrush you choose, regardless of whether it is manual or powered.

Size

 The best toothbrush head for you should allow you easy access to all surfaces of your teeth. For most adults, a toothbrush head a half-inch wide and one-inch tall will be the easiest to use and the most effective. Though there are larger toothbrush heads available, you may find that it is difficult to maneuver them to clean certain hard-to-reach areas, such as the sides and backs of your molars. The toothbrush should have a long enough handle so you can comfortably hold it in your hand.

Bristle variety

  If you go to the drug store to purchase a manual toothbrush or a replacement head for your electric toothbrush, you will be able to select a toothbrush with soft, medium, or hard nylon bristles. For the vast majority of people, a soft-bristled toothbrush will be the most comfortable and safest choice. Depending on how vigorously you brush your teeth and the strength of your teeth, medium- and hard-bristled brushes could actually damage the gums, root surface, and protective tooth enamel. For even more tooth protection when you brush, be sure the bristles on the toothbrush you select have rounded tips.

Expert recommendation

 To ensure your toothbrush has undergone rigorous quality control tests for cleaning effectiveness and safety, ask your dentist for a recommendation. Or look for manual or powered toothbrushes that have earned the American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Approval.

 Disposable toothbrushes, this seal ensures that: the bristles will have safe tips; the bristles will not fall out of the toothbrush under typical brushing conditions; the handle will withstand normal use; and the toothbrush will effectively reduce plaque build-up and gum disease in its early stages.

 In addition to satisfying these conditions, powered or electric toothbrushes bearing the seal also must undergo safety testing in an independent lab and prove through clinical trials that the toothbrush is safe for use on the tissues of the mouth and teeth as well as any dental hardware that may be in place.

Hus'hu Newyork Dental Clinic - What are advantages of Dental Crown??

 Dental Crowns or caps, are custom-crafted restorations that cover a tooth's entire surface. Crowns fit over teeth that are broken, cracked, or otherwise structually compromised. Dental Crowns are often used after endodontic therapy(root canals) to provide strength for damaged teeth and can be used in conjunction with dental bridges and dental implants to replace missing teeth.

* Why do teeth need dental crowns?

A dentist might recommend placing a dental crown for a variety of reasons but, in general, most of these reasons will usually fall within one of the following basic categories:

A) To restore a tooth to its original shape.

B) To strengthen a tooth.

C) To improve the cosmetic appearance of a tooth

1. Gold Crown

 Because of its physical properties, dentists find gold to be a very workable metal. Gold crowns withstand biting and chewing forces well. They will not chip. It would be uncharacteristic for a gold crown to break. Of all of the types of dental crowns, gold crowns probably have the greatest potential for lasting the longest.

2. PFG (Porcelain Fused to Gold)

 PFG crowns are ideal for back teeth. Less tooth structure needs to be removed with PFG crowns as they wear less than ceramic ones. People who have a habit of clenching their teeth under stress, grinding their teeth in their sleep, have a strong bite, or chew excessively hard might benefit with a gold crown as it provides a stronger support to the healthy teeth, compared to ceramic crowns. PFG crowns are suitable for molars where there is heavy chewing and not as harsh to the opposing tooth.

 

3. PFM (Porcelain Fused to Metal)

Depending on your needs, crowns are made with a porcelain veneer that covers only those aspects of the crown that is readily visible, the other portions the crown have a metal surface. These crowns are strong enough to withstand heavy biting force, yet have an excellent cosmetic apperance.

 These Porcelain Fused to Metal(PFM) crowns look like natural teeth and are stronger than ceramic crowns. PFM crowns are attractive matched to your natural teeth.

Hus'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - Floride Application

Have you heard about the benefits of Floride??

The greatest breakthrough in preventive dentistry during the last fifty years has been the use of fluoride.

Sources of fluoride

We recommend fluoride toothpaste for all of our patients. We may also recommend additional sources of fluoride for you to use at home. This includes fluoride drops, tablets, or prescription toothpaste. Fluoride rinses or gels are sometimes prescribed to help eliminate germs that cause gum diseases. All you need to is just after squeezing floride into the tray and bite on it for 5 minutes

We may also apply fluoride to your teeth immediately following a dental cleaning in our office. A topical gel is applied with the use of a tray or with a cotton applicator directly on the teeth. Fluoride is an important part of every prevention program. When combined with the good dental habits of brushing and flossing, the number of cavities in children and adults can be dramatically reduced.

The benefits of fluoride

There are many benefits in the use of fluoride for people of all ages. When children are young and their teeth are forming, fluoride joins the enamels surface and makes it harder and more resistance to decay.The benefits for adults are just as great. Fluoride can help repair an early cavity, even before it’s visible in the mouth, by rebuilding the enamel layer of the teeth. Fluoride is also helpful in older adults, to help solve the problem of cavities in the tooth root or root sensitivity.

Just You need to be careful not to eat and drink for an hour after fluoride application .

Hus'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - Periodental Disease

One foreign patient walked into our Hus'hu Cliinic the other day. She is a middle- aged women from Phillipene living in Korea for years. Her looking was very similar with a korean. She wanted to have her back teeth removed and had a severe pain in lower right side of her mouth Her teeth health was not good. Cuase she was wearing denture on her upper teeth. Besides, she started loosing her teeth on the lower teeth.

 

 As you can see on the X-ray photo, there is a intensive inflammation around back teeth of left side of her mouth. There were just two options to fix this problems. Dental implant and Partial denture were recommended for her. This is what happened to her during the extraction surgery. She just pushed her tooth with her tougn and it was pulled our itself. Dentist and medical team all were embarrassed about what's happening to her. But she relievely smiled cuase she didn't longer suffer from severe toothache.

So what cuased her to loose her teeth??  It was periodental disease

Periodontitis and gum disease are a progressive condition and the leading cause of tooth loss amongst adults in the developed world.  Periodontal disease occurs when the toxins found in plaque begin to irritate or inflame the gingiva (gum tissue).  The resulting bacterial infection often known as gingivitis, can eventually lead to the destruction of the gum tissue and underlying bone.  If periodontal disease is not treated, it can also lead to loose teeth or tooth loss.

 Common Signs &Symptoms

If you have any of these signs or symptoms, the advice of a general dentist or periodontist should be sought as soon as possible:

• Bleeding gums - Gums should never bleed, even when you brush vigorously or use dental floss.

• Loose teeth - Also caused by bone loss or weakened periodental fibers (fibers that support the tooth to the bone)

• New spacing between teeth - Caused by bone loose.

• Persistent bad breath - Caused by bacteria in the mouth.

• Pus around the teeth and gums - Sign that there is an infection present.

• Receding gums - Loss of gum around a tooth.

• Red and puffy gums - Gums should never be red or swollen.

• Tenderness or Discomfort - Plague, calculus, and bacteria irritate the gums and teeth

•

Treatment of Periodontal Disease

• Laser treatment – This can be used to reduce the size of the pockets between the teeth and the gums.

• Tissue &bone grafting – Where a considerable amount of bone or gum tissue has been destroyed, the dentist may elect to graft new tissue by inserting a membrane to stimulate tissue growth.

• Pocket elimination surgery – The dentist may choose to perform “flap surgery” to directly reduce the size of the gum pockets.

Hsu'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - Should I have a wisdom tooth removed?

Wisdom Teeth are the third and final set of molars that most people get in their late teens or early twenties. Wisdom teeth that lean toward the second molars make those teeth more vulnerable to decay by entrapping plaque and debris. In addition, wisdom teeth can be entrapped completely within the soft tissue and/or the jawbone or only partially break through or erupt through the gum.

 

wisdom tooth that is fully erupted through the gum can be extracted as easily as any other tooth. However, a wisdom tooth that is underneath the gums and embedded in the jawbone will require an incision into the gums and then removal of the portion of bone that lies over the tooth. Oftentimes, for a tooth in this situation, the tooth will be extracted in small sections rather than removed in one piece to minimize the amount of bone that needs to be removed to get the tooth out.

The function of the wisdom teeth is also important as a one of moral teeth.  But why and when are they needed to be extracted??

1) First , when they are angled toward or away from the second molars or be angled inward or outward. Poor alignment of wisdom teeth can crowd or damage adjacent teeth, the jawbone as below.

2) Second, When a wisdom tooth is underneath the gums and embedded in the jawbone.

Do you have pain when you drink chilly water??

Are you surprised that Cold food make your teeth hurt??

 1. Cervical Abrasion

 Cervical Abrasion lesions are a common problems and cause the breakdown of tooth structure at the gum line over time.  In most cases, this is caused by excessive force used during brushing or using a hard-bristled toothbrush.

 Excessive force causes a recession of the gingiva which exposes part of the tooth called cementum that holds the tooth in the bone. That’s why brushing too hard can actually  wear down your tooth structure, resulting in increased sensitivity to hot and cold sensations.

2. What causes Cervical Abrasion??

 There are many kinds of reasons that causes the cervical abrasions.

 These can be categorized by several common reasons that cause this problems as below

  -  Excessive force by hard tooth brushing

 - Faulty toothbrushing techniques

 - Consumption of hard and solid foods

3. How can this problem be fixed??

The problem can often be addressed with a tooth-colored filling.

Hus'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - Gum Disease

How does gum disease impact on our oral health??]

People usaully think cavaties are more severe and serious problems than gum diseases. Gum disease could cause more serious discomforts and problems  as gum and gingivites are the pendants of the teeth. Plags and germs spreads along the root of the teeth. It melts away the whole gum structure and it subsides so the root part of the teeth would be exposed.

 Gingivitis  

  When plaque is left around the teeth, it creates the right condition for bacteria to grow. These bacteria can irritate the gums and create gingivitis (inflammation of the gums). This makes the gums red and more likely to bleed easily. Gingivitis can easily be treated by a professional cleaning and polishing. Sometimes, I will recommend a medicated mouthwash and we will review how to brush and floss more effectively.

 If gingivitis is left untreated, the inflammation will work its way down the tooth and form a “pocket”. This pocket is created because the bacterial are actually causing you to loose the bone around your teeth. We can measure the amount of bone loss around each tooth by doing Periodontal Pocket Measurements. Once these pockets have formed, it is much more difficult to clean the bacteria and you will need a scaling or deep cleaning of the pockets to get them clean. At this stage, gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) becomes periodontal disease (disease of the bone and supporting structures).

  Periodontal Disease 

 Periodontal Disease is a silent disease and can slowly erode the bone and supporting structures of the mouth without any noticeable signs to the patient. If you wait too long, the teeth will actually become loose and by then, it is usually too late to reverse the process.

  What is a Deep Cleaning?

 As I mentioned above, gingivitis is easily treated with a professional cleaning and better home care of the patients. However, if you already have some pockets around your teeth, you will need a deep cleaning (root planning). This involves scraping the diseased tooth structure and bacteria from the root surfaces under the gums to help decrease the pockets around your teeth. 

 Does it hurt?? 

  Depending on the depth of the pockets and the severity of the periodontal disease, I sometimes numb the area around the teeth I will be working on. This allows me to better clean the area and also keep you more comfortable. After the deep cleaning, I usually irrigate the pockets with and antimicrobial rinse to help flush out all the bacteria and tartar. 

  Follow Up  

 Deep cleaning is not something you want to do on a regular basis. That is why in our office we like to do 3-4 month follow-up cleanings after your deep cleaning. At each of these visits, we will redo the measurements of your pockets and make sure the disease is not getting worse. Typically, we do these 3-4 month cleanings for the first year after your deep cleaning. Once we have established that the disease is no longer progressing, we will put you back on a 6 month recall.

Hus'hu NEWYORK Dental Clinic - 10 Top Good Foods for Teeth

2. Healthy drink and food for teeth — Milk and yogurt
Unsweetened yogurt and milk are good for your teeth. They have a low acidity. It means that the gradual wearing away of the teeth, also called dental erosion, is less.

Different fruits like apples, strawberries, citrus fruits, specially kiwis, contain a lot of vitamin C. It is considered the cement that holds all of your cells together, so just as it’s vital for your skin, it’s important for the health of your gum tissue. If you don’t get enough vitamin C, researches show that the collagen network in your gums can break down, making your gums tender and more susceptible to the bacteria that cause periodontal disease.

Pumpkin, carrots, sweet potato, broccoli are full of vitamin A. This vitamin is absolutely necessary for the formation of tooth enamel. Apart form that, crunchy vegetables cleanse and stimulate your gums, making them healthy.

Good teeth can be a result of combining white bread, especially for small kids, and sesame seeds. It sloughs off plaque and helps build tooth enamel. Sesame seeds are also high in calcium, which helps preserve the bone around your teeth and gums. But firstly, it is very delicious.

9. Healthy food for teeth — Animal food

Don't Fear the Dentist

Here's how to ease anxiety before a checkup

Though clean and healthy teeth can brighten any grin, going to the dentist may not bring a smile to your face. The American Dental Association lists these suggestions to make a dental visit easier on those who experience dental anxiety:

• Explain to your dentist and the rest of the staff in the office that you're anxious about going to the dentist, and express your specific concerns.
• Schedule your dentist appointment for a time when you won't feel pressured or rushed, such as a Saturday morning.
• Bring along a personal radio, MP3 player or CD player to drown out the sound of the drill.
• While you're in the chair, try to relax by visualizing yourself in a happy, relaxing and comfortable place, such as the beach.
