What causes sensitive teeth?
Sensitive teeth can be caused by a range of factors. The porous part of the tooth, called dentin, is the region that registers pain, and dentin can become exposed due to:

• Fractured or chipped teeth
• Teeth injured by clenching or grinding
• Receding gums caused by gum disease or improper brushing

Why should my child wear a mouthguard?
Usually when a child begins to participate in recreational activities and organized sports, injuries can occur. A properly fitted mouth guard, or mouth protector, is an important piece of athletic gear that can help protect your child's smile, and should be used during any activity that could result in a blow to the face or mouth.
Mouth guards help prevent broken teeth, and injuries to the lips, tongue, face or jaw. A properly fitted mouth guard will stay in place while your child is wearing it, making it easy for them to talk and breathe.
If you have further questions don't hesitate and ask our dentist at our dental studio. See page

Who needs to have their wisdom teeth extracted?
Anyone who is in danger of developing impacted wisdom teeth. For example third molars that only partially erupt or get trapped or stuck in the jaw, should have them removed so that they do not damage adjacent molars and cause other oral problems. You also should know that anyone who is getting dentures should have their wisdom teeth removed. See page

Which type of toothbrush should I use?
A soft toothbrush with a small head is recommended because medium and hard brushes tend to cause irritation and contribute to recession of the gums, and a small head allows you to get around each tooth more completely and is less likely to injure your gums. You should brush your teeth at least twice a day and visiting your dentist at least twice a year for cleanings. See page

What is the procedure for Root Canal Treatment?
First step: The tooth is anaesthetized and an opening is made through the crown into the pulp chamber.
Second step: The length of the root canal is determined. Unhealthy pulp is removed. The canals are cleaned, enlarged and shaped with special root canal files and disinfecting solutions.
Third step: Once the tooth is free of infection, the tooth is filled with a special root canal filling material and sealed with a temporary filling.
Fourth step: A post and core may be added for structural support. Usually a metal or porcelain crown is made for the tooth to provide further protection. See page

Can you explain the the proper way to floss teeth?
After brushing take the floss and go between your teeth for a few minutes.
Break off enough floss to wrap the ends around your middle finger.
To remove plaque you should hold the floss tightly against the tooth and move away from the gums. Gently rub up and down against the side of the tooth.
Repeat on each tooth and release new floss as needed.
Neverforget to floss behind the back teeth. See page
