It requires consistency to make sure perfect results are achieved. Some things ought to be put into practice to ensure a person's teeth are clean and healthy. Some of these things include brushing your teeth, flossing them often, and avoiding any sugary foods, among others. With these in practice, anyone would assume their mouth is healthy and hygienic. Many are the times; people fail to remember about fluoride deficiency. It is considered a severe deficiency of the mouth and should receive quick attention upon its onset.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="352" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cLueO7Sz2Wk" width="484" youtube-src-id="cLueO7Sz2Wk"></iframe></div><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-724441e2-7fff-f7bc-c51e-62dca0321145"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What exactly is fluoride?</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fluoride is a mineral that is known to exist naturally. It is mainly released from rock into water sources, soil, or air. According to the American Dental Association, the element fluorine is present in the earth's crust as an ion called fluoride. It plays a significant role in the mouth because it works to hinder tooth decay. The process begins when the enamel goes through the process of remineralization and demineralization constantly. Once the enamel loses the constituents of minerals, the process is referred to as demineralization.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the other hand, the process of regaining those minerals is what is termed remineralization. Saliva transports fluoride back to the enamel, and this poses a relevant process as it helps prevent some conditions in the mouth. Loss of minerals in the mouth could lead to cases of tooth decay.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlIzvN_cmFtZ1I8RBx_963bVOqOqxETRUGuoEGxuKNDk-aignu7lnPSCP0u0lqLwvQb-qLwUaQVO4wBwgLJG9qvkztlLTiieb3J4nkmMafr_PsaxsSHoVMGejmKrDFM66IL9Njq5_B22ci/s1280/F3.large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="999" data-original-width="1280" height="348" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlIzvN_cmFtZ1I8RBx_963bVOqOqxETRUGuoEGxuKNDk-aignu7lnPSCP0u0lqLwvQb-qLwUaQVO4wBwgLJG9qvkztlLTiieb3J4nkmMafr_PsaxsSHoVMGejmKrDFM66IL9Njq5_B22ci/w445-h348/F3.large.jpg" width="445" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When to detect you have fluoride deficiency</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In most cases, tooth decay represents the onset of fluoride deficiency. Bacteria present on plaques produce acid with the use of carbohydrates and sugars present. The produced acid then destroys the enamel of the tooth, and as a result, damage occurs. People have, however, turned to measures such as fluoridated drinking water as its consumption lowers tooth decay by approximately twenty-five percent.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Is fluoride deficiency treatable?</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fluoride deficiency can be treated. A trained dentist will be able to diagnose it and prescribe the most accurate form of treatment. It is, however, wise to understand that apart from the course of treatment given, it is healthy to brush your teeth at least twice a day, floss daily, and have regular visits to the dentist. This helps maintain healthy teeth and gums. Here are some of the possible courses of treatment for fluoride deficiency;</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Use toothpaste and <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2019/10/how-to-whiten-your-teeth-at-home.html" target="_blank">mouthwash for cleaning</a> your teeth. These products contain fluorine that helps with the deficiency.

Once consumed, the fluoride gets into the body through the bloodstream. Examples of such foods and beverages include oysters, crabs, and black tea.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Professional fluoride application; dentists can apply fluoride to your teeth in the form of varnish, a gel, or foam.

When a tooth rots or decays, it is most likely going to cause plaque development, which later leads to gum disease. It is a bit hard to diagnose gum disease, which causes the health of a person to deteriorate without their knowledge. This is because the bacteria present from the gum disease fills the mouth, and it may enter the bloodstream and trigger heart disease, stroke, or even cause arteries to clog.</span></p><div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span>Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-1024159907005552722019-10-20T06:00:00.005-07:002021-07-29T06:10:22.286-07:00 How To Whiten Your Teeth At Home<span id="docs-internal-guid-7016478f-7fff-5060-f020-f94d6b795647"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We have all been through the painstaking process of trying to whiten our teeth from day to day. Most people prefer to have whiter teeth because it is more attractive in most cases to most people. I don’t really know what the science is behind this attraction; perhaps teeth look cleaner when they are white? Well, in some ways white teeth are cleaner because they are free of plaque and tartar, which is a pretty hefty sign of tooth decay and improper oral care. It also might be a good sign that the person is not regularly attending the <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2018/06/easy-ways-to-whiten-your-teeth-at-home.html" target="_blank">dentist</a>. Although, I would argue that most people do not regularly attend the dentist. I think that it’s because people are tight for money and the healthcare system in the United States is an absolute dumpster fire, meaning that people would much rather spend money on groceries, rent, and car payments than go to the dentist just to be told they have to brush their teeth more often. However, it is true that people sometimes struggle to keep their teeth looking white and clean. That’s why there are a lot of products available specifically for people who would like to whiten their teeth. It is worth nothing, though, that these products are usually extremely expensive and don’t really do much to whiten teeth beyond the bare minimum. That’s why I have spent a lot of time researching various at-home methods of whitening my own teeth.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="309" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aVBFGAn4QRc" width="473" youtube-src-id="aVBFGAn4QRc"></iframe></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After all, I really enjoy having whiter teeth, but I don’t want to pay a hefty price just for some whitening strips from Meijer! That’s why the internet has my back. Honestly, you can find a solution to just about anything if you go looking for it on the internet. What on earth did people do before the internet? There was probably not a whole bunch going on because nobody knew how to deal with anything. Anyways, if you are also like me and are looking for some various at-home methods with which to whiten your teeth, then I have some good news for you. To make it even better, you should know that these methods are super cheap and do not involve a lot of money at all - this is super nice for people on a budget like myself!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu07-0D5x2kkuPL02kCIgiRQPGolbAgbKGaRtcmY2bvch8CTwFdQHs50e3MYhsoa6_UjwoPjQy1-yR2FKzmvDXOjAYF1b-X9zWxe878wyL41KGcSNImI7mCY9egubTAlFPp0P1BtG2LVqj/s950/ea7a12e77a953139b5a3b5ed98b40f5e.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="950" data-original-width="794" height="427" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu07-0D5x2kkuPL02kCIgiRQPGolbAgbKGaRtcmY2bvch8CTwFdQHs50e3MYhsoa6_UjwoPjQy1-yR2FKzmvDXOjAYF1b-X9zWxe878wyL41KGcSNImI7mCY9egubTAlFPp0P1BtG2LVqj/w356-h427/ea7a12e77a953139b5a3b5ed98b40f5e.jpg" width="356" /></a></div><br /></span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Well, you are probably wondering what sort of methods I am talking about since I haven’t gotten around to actually talking about them yet. Well, the first method I have to talk about is with baking soda, believe it or not. No, we are not going to be cooking up anything. Baking soda has actually been used in a lot of different dental products for centuries. Unless the Arm & Hammer commercials have deceived me, I believe that baking soda was even used originally as toothpaste. Well, if that is the truth, it is no surprise that baking soda can effectively whiten your teeth at home too. It’s also super cheap! No need to buy a 10 dollar bottle of mouthwash when you can spend 2 dollars on a big box of baking soda!</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzaV1FDSmzfXCnueMZSFUmirGlM8Fx3764aEeacIli-Ep6usV-STcEDiA-1Xz2GO1pAu32Ti7mt6tpbP7EG3e-P1b6qLh1kKk7wdHzq1orbECs-CPF-ZFTsrYgD2l8YYAze2KKVaYksrHE/s1410/white.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="738" data-original-width="1410" height="249" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzaV1FDSmzfXCnueMZSFUmirGlM8Fx3764aEeacIli-Ep6usV-STcEDiA-1Xz2GO1pAu32Ti7mt6tpbP7EG3e-P1b6qLh1kKk7wdHzq1orbECs-CPF-ZFTsrYgD2l8YYAze2KKVaYksrHE/w477-h249/white.jpg" width="477" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition to baking soda, hydrogen peroxide is also super effective at whitening teeth. Hydrogen peroxide has been used historically to kill bacteria in the mouth and also whiten your teeth while you’re at it. Hydrogen peroxide is my personal favorite at-home whitening technique.</span></p><div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span><br />Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-71637200333902909902018-06-03T06:20:00.001-07:002021-06-03T06:24:56.379-07:00 Easy Ways to Whiten Your Teeth at Home<p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you’re reading this, it probably means you struggle with your personal hygiene. Look, you don’t have to be a dentist to take care of your teeth. It’s really not that hard! Not only is it expected of you to be brushing your teeth for two minutes at least twice a day, but dentists even recommend brushing your teeth after especially sugary meals or beverages. This also helps with bad breath and other related issues. It’s also super important to be flossing your teeth at least once a day. This is something that a lot of people overlook as part of their daily routine. Here’s the deal - if you don’t floss your teeth, you will get mouth cancer and your loved ones will have to watch you suffer for years due to your negligence. In other ways, people tend to neglect the color of their teeth. Sometimes teeth can get really stained over time. Some gradual discoloring is normal, but there are definitely ways to prevent your teeth from looking like the side of a gravel road! Here are a few home remedies that can help to whiten your teeth and remove surface stains. No dentist needed!</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="330" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6VxphLA7LD8" width="485" youtube-src-id="6VxphLA7LD8"></iframe></div><br /><span id="docs-internal-guid-875ce75c-7fff-cdab-d61b-4be439994190"><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One way to remove stains and whiten <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2018/04/the-time-i-had-my-wisdom-teeth-removed.html" target="_blank">teeth </a>is to use a combination of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Let’s face it, whitening strips and mouthwash are generally really expensive, and for what? They contain usually 1 or 2 common ingredients that you can find for much cheaper and will do the same thing; however, baking soda and hydrogen peroxide paste will not taste very good, especially if you are comparing it to some name brand toothpaste or mouthwash. Using this trick can help whiten your teeth at home and won’t necessarily break the bank. Now you can look all pearly fresh on your next date with Jane from HR. Just don’t let it slip that you used baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to clean your teeth, because that’s a little embarrassing.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmq5Ezq3o9jhTLvCKwUTrJjBoT44btvWfrciUXR8NCDgSGquZ8gnZRWpkWdpMbsHgl1aZmeiKSDGg94DNRIMz3MspUyfZgcFdMMa2BYmURmuRmfNBZxmEIUbUp_y7UN5HBEW8iYZoM_wY9/s1200/15-Simple-Ways-To-Get-White-Teeth-Overnight-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="628" data-original-width="1200" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmq5Ezq3o9jhTLvCKwUTrJjBoT44btvWfrciUXR8NCDgSGquZ8gnZRWpkWdpMbsHgl1aZmeiKSDGg94DNRIMz3MspUyfZgcFdMMa2BYmURmuRmfNBZxmEIUbUp_y7UN5HBEW8iYZoM_wY9/w537-h282/15-Simple-Ways-To-Get-White-Teeth-Overnight-3.jpg" width="537" /></a></div><br /></span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Another way to whiten your teeth and start looking all nice and fresh is to bleach them. Now this is very important - bleaching your teeth does mean you swish some clorox around in your mouth and hope for the best. In fact, that’s a really good way to find yourself back at the dentist or even in the emergency room. Bleaching your teeth usually means getting a special gel or serum that one applies to their teeth with the help of a mouth guard or retainer. My girlfriend Hannah does this with her teeth and they look really good! She’s a cutie. Anyways, this trick can help whiten your teeth but is a bit more expensive than the baking soda and hydrogen peroxide method - it’s also a little harder to get the supplies for it.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeOQsFIQhKHdeOyCSR8BSDSZ-WxEpp4wy6VxCgKyZzDPfjr80OJvaP9RweZAvwQp5NlDt6Q7fonBCeUJtlBeHH5iKOxbDDZQG4u-OpvSStZhm11_gpVqpCof7FKHmHoJ_pQo5IU1K4-dMj/s750/how-to-get-white-teeth.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="420" data-original-width="750" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeOQsFIQhKHdeOyCSR8BSDSZ-WxEpp4wy6VxCgKyZzDPfjr80OJvaP9RweZAvwQp5NlDt6Q7fonBCeUJtlBeHH5iKOxbDDZQG4u-OpvSStZhm11_gpVqpCof7FKHmHoJ_pQo5IU1K4-dMj/w480-h268/how-to-get-white-teeth.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Another way to remove surface stains on your teeth and keep those pearly whites shinin is with apple cider vinegar. Now, keep in mind that apple cider vinegar is one of the most repulsive things that you can put in your mouth. My roommate in college drinks a shot of apple cider vinegar every morning, and I just think that’s a perfect way to ruin your day right from the get go. However, apple cider vinegar is said to do wonders for removing stains from your teeth. Simply put some in your mouth and swish it around like you would a nice minty mouthwash.</span><p></p><div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div><br />Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-13426287992292418682018-04-29T01:31:00.001-07:002021-04-29T01:37:31.976-07:00 The time I had my wisdom teeth removed<p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When my dentist told me I needed to get my wisdom teeth removed, I was scared. I don’t like going to the dentist for one. The metal tools scraping on my teeth and having someone’s fingers shoved in my mouth, I’m not a fan one bit. I have a terrible gag reflex, so the dentist and I do not get on too well. I do not even want to get into the conversation I had regarding the need for braces. Getting wisdom teeth removed is kind of complicated, but the good thing is that there are people out there who specialize in doing stuff like this. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="300" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/w82Xn88E3CY" width="485" youtube-src-id="w82Xn88E3CY"></iframe></div><br /><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 36pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">As I said, the process of winsome teeth extraction is kind of a complicated procedure. First, the dentist needs to discuss with you how you want to be numbed. You can either get a shot in the wisdom teeth area, or you can be put under general anesthesia or be put to sleep in more simple terms. I chose to be put under general anesthesia. As I mentioned, I do not like the dentist, so this was the best choice I had. Once that choice has been made, you will receive your shot or be put under, and the procedure can begin. They will make a small incision in the wisdom teeth area to expose the teeth. Then the surgeon will cut the teeth to be easily extracted. They will then remove the teeth in sections, and gauze will be applied, and that’s really all there is to it. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4CGTp9XkyWiizpRIC9VcZ7nbnaC5t-MbdTQsdriopZhM0d0KzT7PH7m4FZQ_QeZs_hd5-nyU1OaFLTRg99pb2ul78oAV8nS_oiSIYt68c6ccx_xBg3xwIuK6SgObq7c_5eCcEK45uGiB7/s2000/Impacted-Wisdom-Teeth-Removal.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1333" data-original-width="2000" height="286" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4CGTp9XkyWiizpRIC9VcZ7nbnaC5t-MbdTQsdriopZhM0d0KzT7PH7m4FZQ_QeZs_hd5-nyU1OaFLTRg99pb2ul78oAV8nS_oiSIYt68c6ccx_xBg3xwIuK6SgObq7c_5eCcEK45uGiB7/w430-h286/Impacted-Wisdom-Teeth-Removal.jpg" width="430" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The morning of my procedure, my mom drove me to the dental office where my procedure was going to be done. When we got there, I had to sit in the waiting room and fill out some paperwork. Once that was done, I got called back for my procedure to take place. I was seated in the standard dental chair where the nurses came to get me ready for it. They told me I had to count down from ten to one after placing a needle in my left arm. I began counting, and by seven, I was out. When I woke up, it seemed like a second had passed; I was very loopy at this point. I remember telling them it was like a sword coming out of my arm. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The healing process was just a time based thing; they gave me antibiotics; if I wanted them, I could take them. I did not ever feel a need for them. I had gauze placed over my wounds after the procedure was done and was told to keep pressure on them. I had to keep biting down so a blood clot would form; this was part of the healing process. After my procedure, I got a smoothie, and that was helpful. The cold felt nice in my mouth, ease the slight pain I felt.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO0EYFYdq51ADpILM34jYBSzvtIOq-NwMXeLro0wZIlZ36-FWTn3s4PKUYe6H-JAJVkYdxbpjbsA1pI7K0z8FpgVERmh__z0EQjvO7xPIWHhqDfSEuulX4HlOkVpP47nc1ttYLEmOLW4RB/s347/wisdom-teeth-removal-treatment-500x500.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="341" data-original-width="347" height="401" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO0EYFYdq51ADpILM34jYBSzvtIOq-NwMXeLro0wZIlZ36-FWTn3s4PKUYe6H-JAJVkYdxbpjbsA1pI7K0z8FpgVERmh__z0EQjvO7xPIWHhqDfSEuulX4HlOkVpP47nc1ttYLEmOLW4RB/w408-h401/wisdom-teeth-removal-treatment-500x500.png" width="408" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the end, getting my <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2017/10/is-healing-cavity-at-home-possible.html" target="_blank">wisdom teeth removed</a> was not as bad as I thought it would be. I am glad I had the opportunity to be put under general anesthesia, not to feel the pain or consciously knowing I have someone’s fingers in my mouth. The healing process was relatively quick, and I did not feel too much pain. I did feel the scars after a week or so, and I could not stop feeling them; it was an odd feeling. I am glad to have gotten the procedure done as I do not have to worry about the pain that would come if I did not have this procedure done. That pain being headaches and jaw pains. </span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-9cc3f5e6-7fff-8d63-1e4e-8dfcbe6b6d84"><div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span>Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-391174475615298292017-10-25T09:35:00.002-07:002020-10-29T11:20:38.960-07:00Is Healing Cavity at Home Possible?<p><span style="font-size: 16pt;">When you have a pang in your tooth, you assume
that it is a cavity, but you cannot be sure until you visit your <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com" target="_blank">dentist</a>.
However, it can be an early stage of having decay and cavity in the teeth.
Moreover, a person cannot repair the damaged tooth or cavity at home, but you
can get rid of the sharp pain or the initial decay of enamel. Anyway, when you
feel a sudden and deep ache in your teeth, you need to make an appointment with
your dentist. You cannot treat the cavity at home without the help of a dentist.
However, you can take some precautions and treatments to get relief from the
pangs and adapt a few steps to remilitarize a tooth's enamel and stop the
decaying at home. Sometimes, you have pain and decay in your teeth due to any
other reason, not because of the cavity; therefore, it is better to have an
appointment with a dentist and examine the real cause and the treatment.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="366" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2xgwh-909WU" width="482" youtube-src-id="2xgwh-909WU"></iframe></div><br /><span style="font-size: 16pt;"><br /></span><p></p>

signs of a cavity, but once the enamel is fully destroyed, you need a dentist
to remineralize it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

having a cavity or not. Only a dentist can diagnose it. However, you can
analyze the initial symptoms of decay and cavity at home. Moreover, you can
practice some steps to get rid of pain and remineralizing the enamel. If you
have a cavity/decay, you will see a white spot on your tooth. It shows that
your enamel is weakening and start decaying. It represents that your teeth will
have a cavity soon, and you will have to lose all the protective layers of the
teeth if you leave it untreated.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg52dYaRtIDxp0ap2U1afVwuB9RVkiBnC60snWlmEP0lZaGBS31wn8PP_CozxB0HTXBS6X4uSgaPJPenckG0BJvulXt8MCPBT6YF-BRN19EK301ovgjhfR3jWSD6R5ADMCM6VRKl_md8mJ_/s728/2654fe5e98b3f22efd7e4d5a9b.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="383" data-original-width="728" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg52dYaRtIDxp0ap2U1afVwuB9RVkiBnC60snWlmEP0lZaGBS31wn8PP_CozxB0HTXBS6X4uSgaPJPenckG0BJvulXt8MCPBT6YF-BRN19EK301ovgjhfR3jWSD6R5ADMCM6VRKl_md8mJ_/w501-h263/2654fe5e98b3f22efd7e4d5a9b.png" width="501" /></a></div><br /><o:p></o:p><p></p>

at home to reverse the cavity. To strengthen the enamel, you will have to use
an antibacterial mouthwash to rinse your mouth. Use it two times a day to
eliminate bacteria and stuck food. Moreover, use a toothpaste that has fluoride
and calcium. It will repair the enamel and halt the decaying process. Do not do
anything extra or unusual without the permission of your dentist. It can make
the situation even worse. So, only focus on oral hygiene and paste.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

but they avoid going to the dentist. This can make the situation really bad and
damage the enamel. So, if you take precautions at home, still you have pangs
and spots, then you must go to the dentist. This is something you cannot treat
at home. Your doctor/dentist is the one who can repair the enamel and control
tooth decay.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

not know about it. In such cases, you might need dental surgery. However, if
you do have a hole and only, the decay has not damaged the roots yet, then you
only need a filling to treat the cavity. First, the dentist will clean the
tooth, then he/she will place filling material in the hole to fill it and make
it even. Moreover, dentists also remove the stains and spots from your teeth,
when you have a cavity. The last step of filling is sealing up of the decayed
tooth. It will also prevent the future cavity.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-N2LRU0PYsYt8CwTVE8JUw2ko47f4mAPN6MUf3Mp3nHpm9cpG1DGWLV-RBKWQLpK6bTx-hg_fGK5Re3aw8K6SiPiTPCmMbzGCO1HM-YXnQIdKqcsz_0SG9XJVCuVqIwUbnMuxNyf58P3/s1600/o_dental.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1144" data-original-width="1600" height="374" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-N2LRU0PYsYt8CwTVE8JUw2ko47f4mAPN6MUf3Mp3nHpm9cpG1DGWLV-RBKWQLpK6bTx-hg_fGK5Re3aw8K6SiPiTPCmMbzGCO1HM-YXnQIdKqcsz_0SG9XJVCuVqIwUbnMuxNyf58P3/w523-h374/o_dental.jpg" width="523" /></a></div><br /><o:p></o:p><p></p>

cavity, then your dentist will apply the root canal treatment. This will fix
the sabotaged roots of a tooth, eliminate/remove the decayed nerves and replace
it with an implant. This will improve the overall oral health, provide entire
cleanliness, and enhance the teeth's functioning.<o:p></o:p></span></p>Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-46666638886172092552017-10-20T05:28:00.003-07:002020-10-29T11:19:30.466-07:00Dental Bridge - When and Why you Need Its Repair?<p><b><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Dental Bridge</span></b></p>

needs a dental bridge to fill the gap. It enhances the smile and gives a
flawless shape to the teeth. Sometimes, the false teeth or pontic ties up to
the healthy teeth and misalign the entire look, then a fixed device, called a
dental bridge, helps the person to balance the shape and fill the gaps in the
jaw. Moreover, a person already has a dental bridge, and during a routine
checkup, your dentist discovers that it has broken and needs repair. Thus,
dentists replace the damaged one with a new entire dental bridge.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

composition ceramics or porcelain, joined with an underlying metallic frame.
These components need care and a healthy hygiene routine. When a person is
careless in looking after the <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2017/10/five-causes-of-bad-breath-halitosis-in.html">oral health</a>, then dental bridges start
deteriorating. Poor hygiene and cleaning habits can sabotage the crown and
diminish the ceramics or porcelain. Moreover, due to the poor brushing and
flossing routine, the crown starts catching bacteria, it produces decay in the
abutment teeth. These teeth can also fracture and cause the failure of the
dental bridge.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

metallic frame; however, it can break sometimes. Due to the intense or rough
chewing, the bridge and its underlying frame can get damaged. Moreover,
sometimes the dental bridge gets loose and needs repair. Due to the structural
problem, it starts losing its original color and it does not match with your
other teeth. Thus, a person needs repair or the replacement o the dental
bridges.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMlBDUGMPMSTbRgFfd9jcjvc_Ujkg7J92mXU5wLSfTj6cLAtgGE_EnJe4C7o_ksjHjCeNjf3NoqC-2rOZBfTXsruqIwXEX1g6RShg0_qiECC2X1kEBokGy832Q7O5rTA3sBHyy1K3ONSpP/s966/dental-bridge-before-and-after.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="917" data-original-width="966" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMlBDUGMPMSTbRgFfd9jcjvc_Ujkg7J92mXU5wLSfTj6cLAtgGE_EnJe4C7o_ksjHjCeNjf3NoqC-2rOZBfTXsruqIwXEX1g6RShg0_qiECC2X1kEBokGy832Q7O5rTA3sBHyy1K3ONSpP/s320/dental-bridge-before-and-after.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><br /></span><p></p>

mouth. The placement of this bridge fills the gap and makes the smile perfect.
Moreover, it can last for up to thirty years. But, they need repair or fixing,
when a dentist discovers a fracture in a tooth, sensitive teeth, or any problem
or infection in the gums. The dentists or a person cannot identify the original
problem in the dental bridges. They find it needs fixing by examining the gums'
health and the overall oral well being. It covers all the teeth; thus, the
decay signs are usually invisible to the doctors. However, identifying the
repair requirement and the real cause of fixing them could be difficult. A
crack in a tooth, looseness in the underlying frame, sensitive teeth, gums

bridge depends on the cause o failure. It there is a problem in the abutment
tooth, then the <a href="https://healtht-pain.blogspot.com/2017/10/avoid-those-bad-foods-that-hurt-your.html">dentist</a> will remove the entire bridge and replace it with a new
one. Sometimes, there is a fracture in a tooth, the doctor will cement the
crooked teeth with porcelain and ceramics. Moreover, in a few cases, the
supporting teeth need help and they come out as a result of the failure of the
bridge, then the person needs the replacement of the entire dental bridge. To
support the newly placed device, a patient will also need implant treatment.
So, it will require surgical treatment to fix the implants in the jaw bone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-4049207360844652912017-10-20T05:01:00.003-07:002020-10-20T06:17:58.746-07:00Five Causes of Bad Breath (Halitosis) in Kids - What you Need to Do About it?<p><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Many children have bad breath or halitosis
problem, even they have a good oral hygiene routine. It blows up the parents
because they could not find the actual cause. Sometimes, the regular brushing
and flossing do not enough for good oral hygiene. Parents need something more
to get rid of this unpleasant smell in their little ones' mouths. Therefore,
first, you need to find the real reasons that are causing the halitosis problem
in your children. Below, five common causes can define the problem of bad breath
in your kids. If they have any one of the habits from it, then your child needs
treatment.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="353" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gWhF0WYG7P4" width="425" youtube-src-id="gWhF0WYG7P4"></iframe></div><br /><span style="font-size: 16pt;"><br /></span><p></p>

Poor Oral Care Routine</span></b><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

are enough for their kids. But, in a few cases, these methods cannot eliminate
the bacteria and germs present in the mouth. Thus, they create plaque on the
teeth. It can cause halitosis in children without giving you a single sign. The
plaque on the kids' teeth is usually invisible or gets ignored. Moreover, if
your kid is not having a good oral hygiene routine, then it can develop a
cavity in the teeth. This will release the bad breath from your children's
mouth. As a parent, you will have to make sure that your child's mouth is
bacteria-free. After the recommendation of the <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2017/10/dental-bridge-when-and-why-you-need-its.html">dentist</a>, you should use an
antibacterial mouthwash for your littles. Moreover, always use a soft-bristles
brush for the kids. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the surroundings of the mouth. They develop because of poor diet and bad
digestion. This can cause the bad breath in the children. So, first, you need
to be careful regarding their food. Do not give them spicy and oily meals.
Moreover, when it comes to the infection in the mouth, it is because of sinus
problems. Some kids release bad breath because of the sinus infection.
Moreover, due to the sore throat and nasal problem, kids develop halitosis. It
needs a complete treatment.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

infections may include swollen tonsils. This can also disturb the enzymes of
the stomach and produce more bacteria in the mouth.

develop it later. This causes a white thin line on their tongue and bad breath
problem. So, do not do anything on your own if you see the sign. In this case,
you need a physician and dentist. It happens in very rare cases, as kids
usually do not have liver problems. But, if your child is suffering, then
he/she is releasing the bad breath.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

It can also eliminate the required quantity of saliva and develop cavity and

items that can release the bad smell. Moreover, meals with high protein,
including meat, fish, cheese can cause halitosis. Sometimes because of the
eating of eggs and drinking too much milk can also cause bad breath in
children. So, limit the foods that have a bad odor. And rinse the mouth after
eating everything.<o:p></o:p></span></p>Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169687273377092228.post-61588196978319914172016-02-08T00:56:00.001-08:002021-02-08T01:03:58.798-08:00 Back to school dental tips for your children<p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stressed about their sleep schedule with the school on the horizon? With covid winding down and school opening back up. There's one thing on most people’s minds throughout the US: school. And with school comes a lot of feelings about it, one way or the other. Most of us are thinking of masks and how our kids will be able to deal with that whole situation and not be afraid. I also don't want my kids to fall into the fall information that they actually stop the virus. My children know that only a propper N95 mask will work and the rest is just for show. </span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-9b35ceaf-7fff-67d8-bf84-14de58f7ca3b"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the one hand, you’ve got you, the parents. You’re likely to love school simply because it’s an easy way for your kids to get back on a routine schedule and be productive somewhere outside of your home. Whether you work from home or have a normal day job, it’s nice to get your kids out of the house and at school. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="320" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/T82Rss7Lj4I" width="482" youtube-src-id="T82Rss7Lj4I"></iframe></div><br /></span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the other hand, though, there are your kids. Kids, more often than not, don’t want to go back to school simply because relaxing during the summer is easier. I mean sure, they’re excited to see some of their friends they didn’t see much during summer. But for the most part, your kids would probably rather have summer last another month longer to enjoy the most of it. Read on for a few ways to get your kids back in a good routine for school.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo4VRpHsgw0XTI652Q_sJp62zi5rUEccXRQYo4l0wqP1dHfRjMMJ8pfwFmUa3S4cVRIPRmCUrYkV__sDK6EY9GEgdxpBsPzJ7OgQanR4zvi9ojCzKQXGZS5ulDSvR8whiJPxXnxHCiG6Lh/s590/abf6288455efc8b441f60dce0eef006f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="329" data-original-width="590" height="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo4VRpHsgw0XTI652Q_sJp62zi5rUEccXRQYo4l0wqP1dHfRjMMJ8pfwFmUa3S4cVRIPRmCUrYkV__sDK6EY9GEgdxpBsPzJ7OgQanR4zvi9ojCzKQXGZS5ulDSvR8whiJPxXnxHCiG6Lh/w441-h245/abf6288455efc8b441f60dce0eef006f.jpg" width="441" /></a></div><br /><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When it comes to getting your kids back in a routine for school, things aren’t always the easiest. At times, they may be grumpy about it, causing you to coax them a little extra to get a move on preparing things, like going to bed earlier, getting school supplies, and even just being mentally prepared for the rigors of school. One way to encourage them to get in a better sleep schedule is to make sure they’re brushing their teeth at the same time every night. If you can get your kids to do their <a href="https://dulcineamalvada.blogspot.com/2017/10/is-healing-cavity-at-home-possible.html" target="_blank">dental </a>routine just before their new school bedtimes, you’ll have an easier time convincing them to actually get in bed. And just as well, waking them up in the mornings a week or two before school to “brush their teeth and have breakfast” is a simple yet easy way to get them up and moving at the appropriate time each morning. After a few days, even if they’re grumpy at first, they’ll start to get the hang of it.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5m0Awvvoy8vlBlKH_XJa_9KdPSh9Y1KGGgyL91ztMtKtb8Jr5WN6T9YuMCpNQM36Ki1iUvGVdwW760y8KzlnK8-c0cCoL7sHTSHSOBt2F9q9Gf9R_v-WKGEe21yB-CHF3bj6iFO89sKk7/s800/17-08_Article1-1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="800" height="232" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5m0Awvvoy8vlBlKH_XJa_9KdPSh9Y1KGGgyL91ztMtKtb8Jr5WN6T9YuMCpNQM36Ki1iUvGVdwW760y8KzlnK8-c0cCoL7sHTSHSOBt2F9q9Gf9R_v-WKGEe21yB-CHF3bj6iFO89sKk7/w413-h232/17-08_Article1-1.png" width="413" /></a></div>Overall, if you can get your kids to think that their dental routine is important enough to switch up their sleep schedule, they won’t mind it as much going back to school and getting up earlier than they have been all summer. By deflecting the new routine to something else <span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">other </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">than school, they shouldn’t complain too much! It is also fun to make sure you add in some cool reasons to get in a routine. </span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I know that we like to add in some charcoal toothpaste some weeks to keep it fun and lively. Or a flavored toothpaste one month. It is a great way to keep the fun of the simple things and keep kids focused on doing them. </span></p><br /><br />Betty Hernandezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16585490325213429825noreply@blogger.com0
