tooth recession

Treatment for tooth recession@rootz dental care and implant centre,omr,chennai

Tooth recession is nothing but  the gums receded or pulled away from the teeth. This leaves the root surface exposed. Since the root surface does not have a hard enamel covering as the crown (top) of the tooth does, the root may become sensitive to hot and cold temperatures, air, sour or spicy foods and sweets. When you can see the roots of the teeth, this is recession already in progress.

Causes of Tooth Recession 

·         Gum diseases

 ·         Aggressive toothbrushing.

·         Smoking/tobacco use.

·         Tooth misalignment.

·         Grinding.

·         Orthodontics.

              When gum disease is present, there is an infection causing inflammation, redness and destruction of the fibers that attach the gums to the teeth. A  Gums will recede if this condition is not properly treated. Using a medium or hard-bristled toothbrush and aggressively brushing can cause recession, and smoking can also create trauma and is an irritant to the gums, which can in turn lead to the same results. Crowded teeth increase the risk, and excess force placed on the teeth can play a role in the loss of gum tissue. Clenching can cause abrasion of the tooth enamel, which can contribute to loss of gum and lead to recession. Finally, with the use of orthodontia, teeth that are moved too rapidly can cause bone loss followed by gum recession around those teeth.

Signs and Symptoms of Tooth Recession

·         Sensitivity. 

·         Exposed root surfaces.

·         Redness and swelling of the gums.

·         Tooth appearing longer than normal.

           
  The key to preventing recession is to treat early signs of gum disease. Keeping gums healthy will prevent infections from destroying the gums and exposing root surfaces. Using a soft-bristled toothbrush and light pressure to avoid trauma to the gums and to eliminate recession is also another preventive measure. Giving up tobacco is imperative because tobacco use causes direct tissue irritation and can exacerbate gum recession. The wearing of a nightguard will help with grinding, which can reduce the risks of tooth recession as well. Following proper oral care and having twice-per-year dental hygiene visits can also assure that gum disease will not lead to recession. Limit sugar and acidic foods, which can allow bacteria to thrive, cause tooth recession to progress and cause sensitivity and root decay.

 if excessive recession is present, a procedure known as a "gum graft surgery" must be performed by a dental specialist known as a periodontist. This involves repositioning gum tissue from the palate or another source to cover the recession on the tooth surface. Tooth recession is a progressive condition. Your dentist may recommend using a desensitizing toothpaste to help with tooth sensitivity.Generally speaking, good dental hygiene is your best defense against oral health problems, including gum recession.

Know about gum diseases

                                                               
What causes gum disease?
 Our mouths are full of bacteria. These bacteria, along with mucus and other particles, constantly form a sticky, colorless “plaque” on teeth. Brushing and flossing help get rid of plaque. Plaque that is not removed can harden and form “tartar” that brushing doesn’t clean. Only a professional cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist can remove tartar.

The longer plaque and tartar are on teeth, the more harmful they become. The bacteria cause inflammation of the gums that is called “gingivitis.”Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease that can usually be reversed with daily brushing and flossing, and regular cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist.

                                                                
When gingivitis is not treated, it can advance to “periodontitis” (which means “inflammation around the tooth”). In periodontitis, gums pull away from the teeth and form spaces (called “pockets”) that become infected. If not treated, the bones, gums, and tissue that support the teeth are destroyed. The teeth may eventually become loose and have to be removed.

                                                                         Periodontitis

How do I know if I have gum disease?

 Patients often don’t understand, or simply ignore, the warning markers of periodontal disease,Symptoms of gum disease include:

•  Bad breath that won’t go away
•  Red or swollen gums
•  Tender or bleeding gums
•  Painful chewing 
•  Loose teeth or gap formation between teeth
•  Sensitive teeth
•  Receding gums or longer appearing teeth 
•  Pus between the gums and teeth
•  Sores in the mouth
•  A change in the way the teeth fit together when one bites down

Any of these symptoms may be a sign of a serious problem, which should be checked by a dentist.Researchers have observed that people with gum disease (when compared to people without gum disease) were more likely to develop heart disease or have difficulty controlling blood sugar.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are replacement tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.

What Are the Advantages of Dental Implants?

There are many advantages to dental implants, including:

• Improved appearance. Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. And because they are designed to fuse with bone, they become permanent.
• Improved speech. With poor-fitting dentures, the teeth can slip within the mouth causing you to mumble or slur your words. Dental implants allow you to speak without the worry that teeth might slip.
• Improved comfort. Because they become part of you, implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures.
• Easier eating. Sliding dentures can make chewing difficult. Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods with confidence and without pain.
• Improved self-esteem. Dental implants can give you back your smile and help you feel better about yourself.
• Improved oral hygiene Dental implants don't require reducing other teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does. Because nearby teeth are not altered to support the implant, more of your own teeth are left intact, improving long-term oral health. Individual implants also allow easier access between teeth, improving oral hygiene.
• Durability. Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.
• Convenience. Removable dentures are just that; removable. Dental implants eliminate the embarrassing inconvenience of removing dentures, as well as the need for messy adhesives to keep them in place.

How Successful Are Dental Implants?

Success rates of dental implants vary, depending on where in the jaw the implants are placed but, in general, dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%. With proper care implants can last a lifetime.

pulpectomy treatment,omr,chennai

Pulpectomy procedure@rootz dental care and implant centre,omr,thoraipakkam,chennai.

                                                         

       A pulpectomy is a common procedure in which a dentist removes all of the pulp from a tooth’s pulp chamber,removing it from the crown and roots. This procedure is commonly performed on the primary teeth or milk tooth of a child to reduce the risk of early primary tooth loss, which can cause bite and alignment problems.

Causes of pulpal infection

There are several causes for pulp infections,including:

• deep decay of the tooth
• a chipped tooth
• large dental fillings
• trauma to the face

How to find out that the teeth needs pulpectomy?

• The tooth or gum line may develop an abscess
• Infections can also be seen with an X-ray of the involved tooth.

       Infections are easily identified, as damage to the pulp becomes visible when an abscess, a pocket of pus, forms at the tip of the tooth root. An X-ray may be needed to view the infection.

Treatment

Dentists take these steps with patients undergoing a pulpectomy.

1. Apply a local anesthetic—Dentists try to minimize the discomfort patients feel during a pulpectomy by administering a local anesthesia, though this does not remove pain or discomfort entirely.
2. Drill a hole—The dentist then accesses the pulp by drilling a hole into the tooth.
3. Remove the pulp and fill the tooth—After the pulp is removed, the tooth is filled with an inert substance and, lastly, filled with a cap or crown.
4. Prescribe antibiotics—To reduce the risk of infection, prophylactic antibiotics are prescribed.

Alternative Treatment

Tooth extraction is an alternative to a pulpectomy but is usually avoided because this can cause other teeth to shift, eventually resulting in crowding in the mouths of children who still have teeth growing. In addition, tooth extraction can make it difficult for children to eat, especially if more than one tooth is removed at a time.

Find a dentist in your area if you suspect your child have a tooth infection and need a pulpectomy

Mouth cancer — red sore

Signs and symptoms of mouth cancer may include:

·         A sore that doesn't heal

·         A sore that bleeds

·         A growth, lump or thickening of the skin or lining of your mouth

·         Loose teeth

·         Poorly fitting dentures

·         Tongue pain

·         Jaw pain or stiffness

·         Difficult or painful chewing

·         Difficult or painful swallowing

·         Sore throat

When to see a doctor

           Make an appointment with your dentist if you have any persistent signs and symptoms that bother you and last more than two weeks. Your doctor will likely investigate other more common causes for your signs and symptoms first, such as an infection.

Causes

Mouth cancer occurs when cells on your lips or in your mouth develop changes (mutations) in their DNA. These mutations allow cancer cells to continue growing and dividing when healthy cells would die. The accumulating abnormal mouth cancer cells can form a tumor. With time they may spread inside the mouth and on to other areas of the head and neck or other parts of the body.

Mouth cancers most commonly begin in the flat, thin cells (squamous cells) that line your lips and the inside of your mouth. Most oral cancers are squamous cell carcinomas.

It's not clear what causes the mutations in squamous cells that lead to mouth cancer. But doctors have identified factors that may increase the risk of mouth cancer.

Risk factors

Factors that can increase your risk of mouth cancer include:

·         Tobacco use of any kind, including cigarettes, cigars, pipes, chewing tobacco and snuff, among others

·         Heavy alcohol use

·         Excessive sun exposure to your lips

·         A sexually transmitted virus called human papillomavirus (HPV)

·         A weakened immune system
