Find Health Security In A Gum Restoration

Florist Cerritos CA

One of the most common problems that are affecting American mouths is the infection and inflammation of our gum tissue. This condition is known as periodontal disease, and it is found in at least 47% of adult mouths in this country over the age of thirty. It begins as gingivitis, which may show as redness or swelling at the site. If you begin to notice this, speak with your oral health provider about ways to keep your smile looking and feeling great.

But for many people, gum recession has already set in. Many people are unaware that this does not readily regrow, so home remedies may only do so much good. For this reason, it is vital that you take this concern to a professional rather than rely on what you may be able to do at home. Today, your Cerritos, CA dentist shows you how we can help to stop the progression of your periodontal disease. Not only that, but what procedures are available to you to refresh your gumline and give you the strongest and safest smile possible!

Get A Better Night’s Sleep

Sleep Cerritos CA

Sleep disorders affect many Americans, and often these instances progress without a diagnosis for years or even decades. Some of these affect our jaw in ways that you might not even think. Issues such as snoring might be a symptom of the larger concern of sleep apnea. This is the momentary pause of breath while unconscious, due to an obstruction in the airway. This can lead to serious health concerns such as an elevated blood pressure. Moreover, apnea can play a role in heart attacks and strokes, so don’t ignore this risk!

Other patients develop issues through the grinding and gnashing of teeth. This concern is known as bruxism, and it can lead to serious consequences in the quality of your smile. Your issue may lead to wear upon the enamel, or your chewing surface. Not only can this become unappealing, it also can lead to infection and pain. Today, your Cerritos, CA dentist talks about the two most common concerns affecting your oral health at night, and how a custom-fitted mouthguard may be able to help you!

Sense Cerritos CA

Few things in the world cause as much daily disruption as a toothache. Even if you aren’t struggling with a constant source of pain, a routine feeling of discomfort can derail activities that are normally effortless. This can be as a result of numerous different causes, so it is vital to have as much information as possible to give to your trained oral health professional. Knowing the cause is key to saving you time and restoring your mouth and eliminating pain.

Since sensitivity can occur due to a wide number of differing sources, it is important in knowing what to specifically target. A common source of these sensations is the wear and damage to the strong surface of our teeth, known as the enamel. This alone can be caused by many activities, from grinding to overuse of harsh whitening procedures. Infection within the structure can also lead to immense pain that should be treated immediately. Today, your Cerritos, CA dentist expresses the importance of identification of your tooth discomfort symptoms. As well, we will go over some things that may be helpful to bring in with you to the office!

Tracking Molar Growth In A Teen Mouth

Posted by

Teens Cerritos CA

If you are an adolescent, then you know that this time in your life can be rather hectic. In addition to school and other extracurricular activities, it is a period when you are learning socially. For this reason, often teens and young adults may not monitor their oral health as intensely as they should.

One prime example of this is through the development of your third molars, also known commonly as wisdom teeth. These are your last set of dental structures and they can cause issues for a variety of reasons. We have outgrown their need through evolution, and as our mouths have become smaller, they do not often fit within the jaw structure of contemporary humans. What this means is that they routinely overcrowd your existing smile. Or if they grow too far back on your oral ridge, these structures can interfere with your ability to properly chew and close your mouth. Today, your Cerritos, Ca dentist stresses the need for regular visits to the office during this period. Identification and imagery can help you avoid harmful damage before it has a chance to occur!
