Endodontics
Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of dental pulp-related issues. The dental pulp, located at the core of your tooth, houses nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or damaged, endodontic treatment becomes necessary to save the tooth.
Tooth decay occurs when layers of plaque form on your teeth. Plaque is generally caused by poor oral hygiene, such as failing to regularly clean your teeth and frequently consuming sugary or starchy food. Tooth decay eventually leads to cavities.
Brushing your teeth twice a day with a fluoride-based toothpaste, using mouthwash, and flossing daily help avoid cavities and plaque buildup. Avoiding sugary and unhealthy foods and beverages, such as sweets and wine, also helps to protect your teeth against cavities and decay.
Symptoms of gum disease include:
● Bleeding gums
● Swollen gums
● Loose teeth
● Bad breath
Regularly practicing good oral hygiene, such as brushing twice daily and using mouthwash, will help combat bad breath. Brushing your tongue may also help.
No. In general, teeth whitening procedures do not damage your teeth. However, there may be some short-term side effects, including:
