The laser could be pushing aside the old machines to take pictures. Diagnostic lasers can reach inaccessible places and even below the surface of the tooth, which many x-rays can not. Only 15 percent of dentists use this technology, but they should do all. This and other laser tools, will become more popular as professionals learn more about them.

Ozone is making its entry into dentistry. A promising new treatment uses highly reactive oxygen molecules, not only to kill bacteria but to reduce tooth decay. Studies of the University of Belfast showed that teeth exposed to ozone killed 99 percent of viruses and bacteria that perform caries.

Are also developing new toothpastes that are worth mentioning. One has a copper-based compound that inhibits the formation of plaque on the tooth surface for 16 hours and eliminates bad breath. Other calcium-containing liquid that can help restore tooth enamel by brushing. Also micro-cracks filled with calcium and phosphate and prevent unsightly stains.

The role of these products is to be abrasive, ie polished enamel surface eliminating external staining caused for example by coffee, cigarettes, tea, etc.

These products when used periodically are gradually eroding the tooth enamel and in patients with receding gums and tooth sensitivity can contribute to this increasing. It can also hurt the gum by abrasion.

This type of homemade pasta to the tooth whitening not only remove external stains (extrinsic). If the teeth have a more yellow color in its constitution will not improve in any color.

For removing these stains outside the dental office, in addition to the removal of plaque that can bring oral problems, perform a simple teeth cleaning (routine scaling, dental prophylaxis) that may take only a couple of minutes. And we are not only improving the aesthetics of our teeth but also their health.

The dental cleaning can be done with insrumental manual and mechanical removal of tartar and stains and then passes a brush (round brushes) with a slightly abrasive paste to remove stains left ne safely.
And if we want to whiten your teeth their usual tone is to perform a technique called “whitening” or “dental bleaching.”

Antiplaque and antibacterial
The problem Dental plaque is a deposit of food debris and bacteria that is set in the teeth. The sugars are converted into acids and are wearing away the enamel, creating cavities. The gum tissue becomes irritated, causing gingivitis and teeth eventually loosen their grips natural.

The solution: use a toothpaste with high concentration of chlorhexidine, since it is a powerful antibacterial. This component purifies the mouth and helps fight bacteria, limiting the onset of gingivitis. The action is progressive and takes several hours.

Strengthen the enamel
The problem: Over time, the enamel wears out, cracks, demineralized by lack of saliva. This is the one that supplies the teeth and provides them with calcium. The gums recede causing the mobility of the teeth, which eventually lose their natural color.

The solution: a peroxide-based toothpaste calcium can mineralize and strengthen tooth enamel, while eliminating the bacteria responsible for plaque. This molecule also has a bleaching effect, attenuating the color of the surface. For greater efficiency, it is advisable to keep a time the toothpaste in the mouth after brushing and before rinsing.

Research on women with gum disease have shown that oral bacteria can pass into the bloodstream, causing inflammation and higher levels of the hormone prostaglandin which, towards the end of pregnancy may trigger labor.

However, pregnant women can significantly reduce this risk by ensuring excellent oral hygiene.

Dental care and mouth from an early age is critical dental and mouth until the end of life. Some teeth and mouth disease can be experienced by children and infants when treatment is not done well, such as holes in the surface of the teeth, gums become inflamed, and the sprue.

Tooth decay generally occurs at an early age (children and infants) usually because of food / drink. Sweet foods such as brown and sticky like lunkhead if not immediately brushed / mouthwash will be left behind and causing tooth decay. Also drinks like tea, coffee, soft drinks, and cigarettes can cause a thin layer on the tooth called the stain so teeth become dull color, brown. Coarse layer stain is easily attached to the remains of food and bacteria, which eventually form a plaque, if not cleaned will harden and become tartar, and can spread to the roots of teeth.

Do not be too much to give children eat sweet foods like candy, chocolate, biscuits and foods that are sweet and easily attached digusi. Such foods usually reacts in the mouth and eventually forming acids that can damage tooth enamel. The effects, such as cavities, tooth loss before their time, interference with the size, shape and number of teeth. To prevent this, provide fiber foods, like vegetables and fruits, because these foods are self-cleansing (cleansing) which require mastication process repeatedly.

If it wants to give a brown foods, sweets, biscuits and other sweets should be at the right time, for example, after lunch. When you have finished the child was told to brush his teeth clean.

After 3 years, if not ingest toothpaste, fluoride toothpaste can be used that have proven anticaries action. Brush should be placed in very small quantities, sufficient to be the size of a lentil. Current trends in the use of fluoride in caries preventive focus on local application of fluoride toothpaste in the form of daily use, daily or weekly rinses and professional topically according to patient risk.
