TOOTH SENSITIVITY

Coping with tooth sensitivity is possible with proper guidance and treatment tailored by your dental professional.
GUM DISEASE
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is an infection of the gums that can lead to serious oral health issues if left untreated. This condition usually starts with gingivitis, characterized by inflammation and bleeding of the gums.

- Prevention includes regular dental cleanings and good oral hygiene practices like brushing twice a day.
Addressing gum disease early can significantly improve outcomes and maintain your overall dental health.
DENTAL CARIES
Dental caries, commonly known as tooth decay, is a prevalent condition affecting individuals of all ages. It occurs when the hard surface of the teeth deteriorates due to the action of bacteria that produce acids from sugar intake.

- The condition is diagnosed through dental examinations and X-rays that reveal cavities not easily seen with the naked eye.
- Treatment options range from fluoride applications for very early stages to fillings, crowns, or even root canals for more severe cases.
- Maintaining proper oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing, can help prevent dental caries from developing.
If caught early enough, it is often possible to reverse early decay and avoid more intensive treatments.
