Why we need to go to the dentist regularly

The Importance of Regular Dental Checkups

At Dentist Auckland NZ we cannot emphasize enough the importance of teeth cleaning and regular dental check-ups. We understand that these days most people lead busy lives and often have no time to take care of themselves let alone their own oral health. However it’s important to still smile and be happy.

Having healthy teeth and gums and a beautiful smile comes down to regular maintenance.

Adults are recommended to see their dentist every 6 months. Having your teeth and gums cleaned regularly offers benefits not only to your appearance but to your overall health and well-being. What are some of the advantages:

1. Enjoy a whiter, brighter and fresher smile

Having your teeth professionally cleaned helps remove external stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and other products. Some stains are difficult to remove especially the ones caused by medications can also cause teeth to become discoloured. We often recommend professional whitening treatment systems.

2. Management of gum disease.

The gums are often linked to overall health. You dentist and hygienists check for deep pockets and spaces between teeth and gums. Depending on the severity this can indicate gum disease (periodontal disease) . Plaque contains bacteria that can cause inflammation around gums. If left untreated this can cause loss of teeth.

3. Maintaining overall health

There has been links between gum disease to other parts of the body including heart and brain. Studies have linked heart attacks to gum disease although the correlation between the two isn’t clear. People with diabetes of get checks for their feet, eyes and heart but miss their gums.

Our experienced Auckland dentists and hygienists have an in-depth understanding of how oral health affects the rest of your body if you want more information please ask.

4. Prevent bad breath (halitosis )

No one wants bad breath which can be caused by poor oral health and gum disease. Regular check-ups and professional hygiene visits ensure bacteria lodged lodged in hard-to-reach places are removed. In fact, regular are the most effective way to ensure you enjoy good oral hygiene.

5. Keeping your teeth and Early Detection of Dental problems

Often people are unaware of problems in their mouths. Many dental issues do not cause pain until it is too late. This includes gum disease, tooth decay cavities and oral mouth cancer. . So unless you have pain or an obvious cavity, you may have issues you do not even know about.

During a routine check-up, your dentist will:

Examine your neck, throat, tongue and face. Often your dentist is the first to find signs of potential nasty conditions such as cancer or other suspicious lesions. Early treatment significantly improves the chances of survival but often oral cancers are not discovered until advanced stage.Check for cavities. Early detection of cavities makes for easier and more cost-effective treatment.Check your oral health hygiene - plaque and tartar build-up. When plaque hardens on tooth surfaces it becomes tartar which is impossible to remove with regular brushing and flossing and so becomes a vicious cycle with more accumulating . It’s important to get on top if it early before it gets out of hand.Examine your gums. Your gums are an entry point into your body and bloodstream. Your dentists will measure the spaces and pockets between teeth and gums and gauge the severity of gum disease.

6. Saving money

Regular visits and preventative dentistry is far less expensive than spending on restoring and fixing teeth , root canals etc. We place a strong emphasis on preventative practices between scheduled regular examinations and cleaning.

7. Increasing Confidence and Self-Esteem

Having a lovely smile can instill great confidence and improve self-esteem. It plays an important role in creating a good impression. Regular dental visits will not only help you to maintain good oral health but will also give you the confidence to show off your beautiful smile.

8. Building a positive and long-term relationship with Your Dentist

Regular dental visits help you to get to know your dentist better and feel comfortable with the environment. This can ease your anxieties with being in the dental office over time. environment.

9. Role model for your Child - Setting a Good Example

Many parents are anxious about visiting the dentist and often their dental anxiety gets passed on to their children , evening unknowingly. So if you are nervous or feels negative towards visiting the dentist, your kids end up reacting in a similar way . Therefore, setting a good example by maintaining good regular hygiene visits are important.

10. Avoiding Teeth Loss

Over time advanced gum and periodontal disease can destroy supporting bone form the deep bacteria and plaque invasion.

What is wisdom teeth?

In some situations, this is quiet troublesome and often requires urgent attention to be sort. The removal of wisdom teeth is a relatively common procedure performed by qualified and experienced dentists or oral surgeons.

You will require an examination and diagnostic tests such as X-rays or cone beam CBCT scan .

Why do I have to get my wisdom teeth removed?

Your wisdom teeth may be erupting in the wrong direction and orientation, which can damage other teeth or structures in the jaw

Your jaw may be too small to accommodate all your teeth leading to excessive crowding and therefore reducing the chance of your wisdom teeth coming through. We call this impaction— and can be potentially harmful to adjacent bone or teeth

If your wisdom tooth does not fully erupt it makes it more difficult to clean and especially bacteria that can get lodged in, causing infection

Pathology such as a cyst ( fluid-filled sac) may form around the unerupted wisdom tooth, which can lead to infection and injury to the adjacent tissues including nerves, blood vessels and bone.

There are times when it is prudent to have the wisdom teeth removed before symptoms develop. But, as with all medical procedures, its benefits must be weighed against the risks which could include complications. Your dentist would provide more information specific to you.

The Extraction Procedure

The treatment can be done pain free by experienced clinicians possibly with only a local anaesthetic that numbs the area and stops you from experiencing any pain; however often multiple wisdom teeth are being extracted at one visit and other additional options such as sedation or a general anaesthetic may be administers. Your dentist can discuss what type of anaesthesia that's best for you before the procedure.

After the Procedure

The recovery period after wisdom tooth surgery lasts between 1 to 7 days depending on the severity of the procedure and the patient’s own biological and physiological response. During this time, you rest and nutrition is advised to encourage healing. Taking regular pain medication as prescribed. It's normal to experience some bleeding the surgical site. However soon after the surgery this is usually controlled by apply gentle pressure by biting with guaze pads and avoiding rinsing or spitting. Also lying with the head elevated rather than flat. In the first 24 hours after the procedure the use of ice packs on the side of the cheek of the procedure for a few minutes at a time may help reduce swelling. Rinsing the mouth with warm salt water several times a day can also help relieve discomfort and keep the wounds clean.

You should keep up with nutrition and eat soft foods for a few days after the extraction and then progress to a normal diet as tolerated.

Continue brushing carefully and follow up with your dentist is important if there are any concerns.
