Caries has been a topic of concern to experts and research that every day is more about oral health, tooth pastes and methods which help to prevent these diseases.

Sometimes it has been to create certain types of toothbrush or products that protect enamel and gums sensitive. The latest invention, is found in the dental microscope, which allows through increasing optical decay vision and find anywhere in our mouths.

With the old standards remained hidden cavities in the corners and in small fissures of the teeth, but now, with the microscope we can see anywhere in expanded form so we can remove any appearance of decay to the smallest detail.

If we add these new technologies, the use of fissure sealants get a really effective technique.

Crack seals create a barrier that protects the teeth area and aims to fill the cracks and points of enamel for easy cleaning of the teeth and thus avoid the embedding of bacteria that form cavities in them.

To prevent decay, we can do from food is to eat foods rich in vitamin A, which act on bone formation, and her presence can be found in foods such as kidney, liver, whole milk, cheese, fish blue, egg yolk, broccoli, spinach and cantaloupe. We must not forget the importance of healthy teeth the calcium and is essential to keep our teeth healthy, so that all foods containing it are welcome to the diet, and those rich in vitamin D to help better absorption of calcium, among them we find, sardines, herring, salmon, tuna, mackerel and fish liver oils.

Foods that provide vitamin C are those that allow us to keep our gums healthy, so we must include a good amount of citrus, parsley, green leafy vegetables, peppers and tomatoes.

A tip: At the end of the meal, substitute coffee for a small piece of cheese that protects tooth enamel, and inflammation of the gums, mouthwashes are best prepared with licorice, eucalyptus and savory.

In an interview with El Universal, the specialist said that dental problems are a public health issue that has not been given due importance.

He acknowledged that unfortunately people associate dentists with pain, because when they come to clinics have severe decay problems often arising in tooth extractions.

“The outlook would be different if you go regularly to the dentist, because they detect problems early,” he said.

Cavities begin in childhood. “Children two years your teeth are pitted” he says.

He added, the majority of Mexicans over 60 years to reach that stage of his life without few teeth when they never should have fallen. But in rural and indigenous areas, said the specialist, the problem of tooth decay and gum disease is more serious.

“Between 25 and 30 years are people who no longer have teeth, that’s worrisome,” said the dentist who recalled that this is partly because there are no dentists in these regions that serve the population.

Most, evidenced, are in cities and few want to go to work in underserved areas of the country.

Hence, he stressed the importance of such schools as the Mexican Dental Association, which seeks through its members meet the demands of the population, besides providing information to people about the dentists there are in Mexico and which are certificates. This said, avoided the population to be served by charlatans who missed out a specialty.

Yesterday was opened on 28 National Congress and International Association for Dental Mexican Health Secretary Julio Frenk.

In his inaugural message, the official said it is under review Official Mexican Standard on the Prevention and Control of Oral Diseases.

For its part, Armando Hernández Ramírez, president of ADM, said that during this three-day Congress will be held 50 courses in operative dentistry and biomaterials surgery, and will be assisted by specialists from 16 countries.

Interviewed in his office, Leopoldo Becerra, who is driving the baby’s dental clinic, said that there are places where there is no drinking water, but soda and junk food.

For this, he said, the rate of caries in the population living in communities outside the cities is severe, which added to the lack of dentists results in loss of teeth until they become edentulous at very young ages.

How old we talking about?
Between 25 and 35 there are a lot of people edentulous, which is serious because a tooth should last for a lifetime.

The problem is so serious that the Federal District has established a dental prosthesis after 60 years of age.

And partly, he said, this is due to a lack of culture of prevention of teeth by parents.

For the member of the Mexican Dental Association, this is a public health problem, not only domestically but also globally, to the extent that the World Health Organization states among the first sites of dental disease followed by the flu.

In perspective, the problem starts from education. The 60 universities in the country, where graduate dentists are not taught to prevent cavities and gum problems, but to attack the disease.

The dentist is a professional who nurtured from childhood the foundations of an authentic culture of dentistry. Dentists play an important role in dental health care, strengthening the culture of prevention in children and youth.

Its activities are geared towards preventative maintenance and control of caries and other oral diseases. Essentially the work of dentists is to teach patients proper brushing techniques, which are the foundation of good oral hygiene, preventing periodontal diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis.

Tooth decay and gum disease are largely caused by plaque, a sticky combination of bacteria and food. Plaque begins to accumulate on teeth within 20 minutes after eating, and whether this plaque is not removed thoroughly each day, tooth decay will flourish. Over time, plaque hardens into tartar.

Plaque and tartar lead to many problems arise:

* Dental Caries: holes that damage the tooth structure.
* Gingivitis: inflammation, swelling and bleeding of the gums.
* Periodontitis: destruction of the ligaments and bone that support the teeth, often leading to the loss.
* Bad breath (halitosis)
* Abscesses, pain, inability to use teeth
* A variety of problems outside the mouth, from premature births to heart disease

Healthy teeth are clean and have no cavities. Healthy gums are pink and firm. To maintain healthy teeth and gums, follow these steps:

* Brush your teeth at least twice a day, preferably after each meal and at the time of going to bed.
* Use dental floss at least once a day.
* Schedule an appointment with a dentist for a routine cleaning and examination. Many dentists recommend having the teeth professionally cleaned every 6 months.
* Keep dentures, retainers and other appliances clean. This includes regular brushing and soaking them in a cleaning solution.

Ask your dentist:

* What toothbrush you should use and where are located the problem areas.
* How to properly floss as improper or too vigorous may injure the gums.
* If you must wear special appliances or tools, such as water irrigation or electric toothbrushes. These can sometimes complement, not replace, brushing and using dental floss.
* If you could benefit from the use of certain toothpastes or mouth rinses. In some cases, toothpastes and mouthwashes counter they can cause you more harm than good, depending on the condition.

Regular cleaning of teeth by a dentist removes plaque that may develop even with careful brushing and flossing, especially in areas that are difficult to achieve for yourself. Professional cleaning includes scaling and polishing, which involves the use of various instruments or devices to loosen and remove deposits from teeth. The routine examination may include dental x-rays.

For over forty years, fluoride has been recognized for its caries preventive qualities. There are three basic ways to provide the benefits of fluoride to your child: (1) community drinking water, fluoride, (2) application of fluoride to tooth surfaces, (3) fluoride taken orally. He will benefit from all three. The decision depends on the advice of your dentist.

Avoid foods with foods that contain excess sugar. Avoid parts and soft drinks between meals. When sugary foods are given, they should be offered as desserts, while the flow of saliva is still active and is able to provide some natural cleaning.

Dental plaque is made up of invisible masses of harmful germs that are the mouth and stick to the teeth. Some types of plaque cause tooth decay. Other types of plaque cause gum disease.

The gums red, swollen or bleeding may be early signs of gum disease. If gum disease is ignored, the tissues that hold teeth in place are destroyed and eventually lose their teeth.

Plaque can hardly be seen, unless it is dyed. You can color the plaque by chewing red tablets a “revealing” toothpastes sold at grocery stores or pharmacies. You can also use a green food coloring. Red or green stain and is impregnated in the teeth shows where there is still plaque and where should you keep brushing to remove it.

Color case and examine your teeth regularly to make sure you are removing all plaque.

You ask your dentist or dental hygienist if your plaque removal techniques are effective.

Elderly people have a broken tooth root, dental caries on the roots. Disabled children have caries. Watch yellowish brown spots on teeth are not cleaned after brushing and teeth sensitive to cold or hot drinks. These are signs of tooth decay.

Dental Erosion
Dental erosion is an injury caused by the acids in the diet that causes irreversible loss of tooth tissue. At present this injury has increased by changes in diet and increased consumption of juices and soft drinks. The citric acid, phosphoric, maleic, and other content in frequently consumed beverages are responsible for this injury can be particularly destructive in children if ingested in juice bottle, for extended periods and near the hour of sleep.

According to scientific evidence, how often you eat can be critical in the process of erosion. At bedtime, a bottle should contain only water. Remember that to prevent tooth erosion, juices and soft drinks should not be administered frequently. Preferably drink them with meals. Prevention is implementing a set of knowledge, actions and attitudes as early as possible.

Caries
Dental caries is a controllable disease. To achieve control we need to consider the following preventive measures: oral hygiene to disrupt the bacteria and food stuck to the teeth, streamline intake of carbohydrates from which microbes produce acids that demineralizating tooth; use fluoride pasta and topics to increase tooth resistance to the action of acids and monitored periodically according to risk.
