Comment on How to get rid of Gingivitis in a week? by mikearion

Go to your dentist there is a prescription mouthwash that will take care of it. Until that time brush and floss using mouthwash. Also, Colgate tooth paste I once heard has the best Gingivitis formula. Just make sure you get the Gingivitis formula. Also, very important, get all refined foods out of your diet and stick with just vegetables, nuts, whole grains, olive oil and non-refined fruits. Get plenty of calcium in your diet and if you smoke quit!

Comment on How can a dentist determine if there is decay under a crown? by Dr. Albert, DDS (UNITED STATES)

Dr. Albert, DDS (UNITED STATES) — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 05:17:47 +0000

HOW CAN THE DENTIST KNOW?
by using an instrument known as an EXPLORER to find a sort spot, which is decay even if a crown blocks the x-ray from showing it.

Comment on How to get rid of gingivitis naturally? or how is it called when your gums are all dark? by izzy

Pigmentation of the gums (dark color seen at the gingiva) is generally physiological (normal) depending on the person's race. African Americans present more pigmentation, thus gums may have a darker color, especially in some areas. This is generally seen symmetrically (present both in right and left sites).

Sometimes, darker color may happen due to a foreign body. It generally occurs due to amalgam restoration materials staying around following tooth extraction, etc. [It looks like a tattoo.]

And sometimes, they may be related to a local pathology affecting melanin-releasing cells [very similar to what we experience on skin].

See a dentist.

Comment on Is it possible to get braces if you have gum disease and loose teeth in their sockets? by ellie

Have you had a preliminary visit with the orthodontist yet? They may not recommend traditional braces due to her periodontal problem. Sounds as though she would be a good candidate for invisalign though. Traditional braces make your teeth even harder to clean, but the invisalign is removeable, so she could brush and floss as she normally does. Without knowing if she has any bone loss (the usual reason for loose teeth), I couldn't guess as to whether she would lose any teeth. I hope not! 13 is really young to be experiencing this problem.

Comment on What is the cause of severe and persistent halitosis (bad breath)? by Demonia

Sinus problems also contribute to bad breath. If you breathe through your mouth, it causes bad breath because the saliva dries up. That is a major cause of morning breath. I rinse with saline nasal spray every morning and at night. Gargle with equal parts warm water and peroxide. That will get the bacteria out of his throat. Use a tongue scraper and get as far back on the tongue as possible. Chewing gum helps because it makes you produce more saliva. If none of these things help, it may be a health issue and he should see a doctor.

i suggest you stay close to him but when he begins to talk, hold your breath! but dont be obvious about it. i know someone who has very bad breath, and i actually sit directly next to this person in class! i just smile and hold my breath for a while.
