Why Do We Tighten Our Teeth? How Can We Avoid?

by admin

Recently, excessive stress and fear have revealed the problems of tooth tightening (bruxism), which is manifested by jaw pain in many of our patients.

Squeezing is an unconscious problem when teeth are awake or asleep, which may cause pain and serious dental problems by grinding the teeth.

Dental problems caused by bruxism include wearing of tooth enamel, increased tooth sensitivity, and flattening and / or cracking of the teeth. Patients with astringent who clench their teeth while sleeping and awake often suffer from jaw pain. Thickening of the jaw muscles can cause this to be a vicious circle, with more severe clenching and pain.

In dental clenching problems, intraoral examinations and controls should be performed first. Old and incompatible restorations, presence of infection, and teeth closing disorders can also cause tooth tightening.

Orthodontics (wire treatment) or restorative treatments should be performed in order to correct closing disorders in tooth tightening problems. In some cases, tooth closures can be corrected with functional chin orthopedics.

The presence of spasm (Tension) of the muscles of the head and neck should be investigated in cases of teething still continuing after all oral treatments are finished. Again, psychiatric diseases and stress have a great effect on clenching. In these cases, relaxing botox applications to the head, neck and chin muscles are among the most appropriate treatment options.

Botox treatments containing botulinum toxin are done intramuscularly and reduce the high tension and pain conditions of the muscles. In addition to dental tightening, Botox treatments also help soften the appearance of the jaw line as it reduces muscle tension.

By injecting small doses of botulinum toxin directly into the muscles of the jaw, it stops involuntary grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw. This significantly relaxes the muscles and reduces wear and tear on the teeth due to grinding. Damage causing the jaw joint and headaches is reduced or eliminated. When necessary, its effectiveness can be increased by applying to the head and neck muscles other than the chin muscles. The voluntary movements such as chewing and facial expressions are definitely not affected by botox injection.

Although Botox treatments are not a permanent treatment, for some patients, they can provide the ability to effectively control night-time gnashing against the irritating symptoms. The effect of Botox applications lasts 4-6 months. At the end of this period, the botox injection should be repeated by the physician.

The problem of clenching unconsciously will cause you to start the day with stress and your teeth to deteriorate. Let's eliminate the problem and secure your teeth!

Bad Breath

by admin

Bad breath is a bad smell that bothers the person, usually caused by the person's inability to fully maintain their oral hygiene. Although oral hygiene is provided, if there is a long and unpleasant smell, it may develop due to other diseases.

Generally, an unpleasant odor in the morning is considered physiologically normal.

It occurs as a result of food that is eaten or drunk in the evening between teeth and accumulates in the tongue. It is not permanent and will pass after the teeth are brushed and oral care is performed.

Some people think that their mouth smells, even though they don't have any bad breath. The person who is uncomfortable with this condition can see a dentist.

Sometimes there may be odors from outside the mouth; these can occur from diseases related to the stomach and upper respiratory tract. In these cases, the underlying cause should be investigated and treated first.

 Bad breath can get worse than the types of food you eat and other unhealthy lifestyle habits.

Permanent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth can also be a sign of gum (periodontal) disease. Factors that accumulate plaque in the teeth and irritate the gums can cause gum disease. If bad breath is caused by gum disease, it should be treated as soon as possible. Diseases caused by untreated gingiva can damage the tooth and jaw bone.

Other Causes That May Cause Bad Breath

Intraoral fungal infections

Dental caries

Sinusitis

Tonsillitis

Reflux, Stomach and intestinal system diseases

Prolonged fasting

Alcohol use

Cigarettes and tobacco products

Dry mouth

Angina

Diseases such as nose and adenoid

Diabetes

Liver failure

It can also be a symptom of systemic diseases such as kidney failure.

Especially the smell similar to acetone-fruit smell in diabetic patients and ammonia-like bad smell in kidney diseases is quite characteristic.

Diagnostic Methods

If the smell is caused by gum disease, your dentist can treat the disease. Halitosis may come to a level that will disturb not only the person but also the people around him after a while.

A mouth-tooth examination and x-ray can be done to detect dental caries. In addition, the diagnosis of gum diseases can also be made by examination.

Various blood tests may be requested after the examination to be carried out to investigate other conditions that may cause bad breath.

Treatment Methods

The underlying cause of bad breath may be poor hygiene. In this case, simple methods such as performing the daily cleaning of the teeth in the best way and using dental floss, mouthwash and tongue brushes can work.

Teeth should be brushed 3 times a day and at least 2 minutes using fluoride toothpaste, after each meal, the residual food residues should be cleaned with dental floss and antibacterial mouthwashes should be used if necessary.

In addition to dental care, you can also remove bacteria that accumulate in the tongue during the day with tongue cleaning brushes specially produced to remove bacteria on the tongue. If you are using a prosthetic tooth, you should remove it at night and clean it thoroughly before fitting the next day.

Low water consumption during the day is also among the factors that can cause bad breath. Drinking water stimulates the production of saliva, which helps remove bacteria located in the mouth. In addition, if the person smokes, it plays an important role in bad breath in quitting smoking.

If the oral and dental health is well cared for but its heavy smell does not disappear then other underlying causes can be looked into.

If bad breath develops due to caries or infection in the gums, bad breath can be treated by applying the most appropriate treatment methods by the dentist. Tooth stones are among the other factors that cause bad breath, and they need to be cleaned once a year. A healthy person is recommended to have a mouth and teeth examination twice a year.

What is Smile Design?

by admin

With the development of technology, “smile design” or “smile aesthetics” have become prominent treatments in recent years.

The development of cameras, phone cameras and social media brought with it a time when we became more aware of our own features and changed to achieve more beauty. Treatments for the function many years ago started today, which does not include aesthetic anxiety with the function.

There are many factors that affect our smile and oral health, from genetic and environmental factors to medicines we use, from nutrition to oral hygiene.

The smile design encompasses a wide range of treatments, including gum problems, tooth discolorations, tooth deficiency, tooth distortion and people who are not satisfied with their smile.

Digital design programs, 3D-CAD / CAM printing systems and advanced aesthetic materials are used in smile design. However, with patient photos, radiographs;

  •  Implant or bridges in tooth deficiency,
  • Laminated, zircon or whitening in colorations
  • Aesthetic fillings, laminated or zircon in the treatment of worn, broken and old fillings
  • Orthodontics (wire treatment) or zircon can be performed in dental crowding.

In the treatment phases ranging from a few touches to the entire jaw complex rehabilitation, diagnosis and treatment planning are carried out by considering the socio-economic status, general health status, oral hygiene and expectation of the individuals in smile design.

With face analysis, aesthetic rates, age and many other factors, you can go to your dentist to redesign your smile and have a confident smile.

What is Dentist Fear?

by admin

The fear of the dentist can be caused by traumatic dental treatments experienced by people, wrong teachings taught from school age, mostly when people are consciously hearing the sounds and seeing the procedures performed.

First of all, while it is possible to receive painless treatment with small filling procedures, delaying the treatments or not coming from fear supports the treatment to become a more difficult process. Both material and spiritual loss are becoming inevitable. For this reason, even if you do not have any complaints, we should take care to visit your dentist routinely.

Local anesthetics have increased large-scale opportunities in medical interventions in our era and increased patient comfort to the maximum level. In addition, the widespread use of sedation and general anesthesia and dental treatments have become powerful alternatives for patients to receive comfortable treatment and reduce their fears.

The warm and sincere approach of physicians in your fears will support you to show that they understand you with empathy; it will make your physician work more carefully by explaining your fears clearly to your physician.

Routine applications such as oral care, tooth brushing and flossing will have a protective effect against painful dental problems that will reduce the risk and frequency of dental problems.

Since technology and treatment techniques are developing rapidly, painful procedures used to be done today are painless and in shorter times. Tools and systems used in dentistry continue to be developed in order to increase patient and physician comfort. In addition, with the shortening of the procedures, treatment preferences consisting of a few short sessions instead of single and long tiring sessions will allow you to overcome your fears.

People who receive psychiatric treatment may have anxiety that affects not only dental anxiety but their entire life. In such cases, preferring dental treatment in the morning and continuing treatment in consultation with the psychiatry department will reduce anxiety.

Asking your physician to be in contact with your physician, asking questions about the question, introducing the tools used, showing the hygiene conditions, and explaining the treatment procedures step by step will support your physician and you to be in a more comfortable treatment process.

Is Whitening For Everyone?

by admin

What we do best since our childhood is a warm smile. Unfortunately, over time, we can become adults who are afraid of laughing. Who wouldn't want to smile beautifully and confidently?

Before whitening, we need to understand coloration well and maintain its existing health first.

The most common reasons for colorings are;

  • Food coloring such as coffee, tea and cola
  • Drug colorations such as tetracycline, iron supplement
  • Tobacco products such as cigarettes, hookahs
  • Colorings developing due to Dental Treatments
  • Fluorine colorations due to the presence of high levels of fluorine in drinking water
  • Change of age-related oral structures
  • The discolorations seen due to mouth breathing
  • And oral hygiene is not enough

Whitening can be done in two ways; It is done by people with professional and necessary doses by the dentist, home bleaching systems and whitening paste.

First of all, bleaching cannot be done to everyone;

  • If you are not over the age of 15
  • If you have tooth sensitivity
  • If you have gum diseases where the roots of the teeth are exposed
  • If you have rotten teeth
  • If there is a forward perplexed tooth line

Teeth whitening is not recommended. After the possible treatment problems are resolved, your whitening doctor may recommend it. People who do not have any health problems and fulfill the optimum conditions should have an oral check and a dentist recommendation to be whitened.

Professional Bleaching is an option that only has an effectiveness on the surface of the teeth and needs to be applied carefully. Home bleaching systems contain lower intensity bleaching agent and you should use reliable products recommended by your physician. In the use of whitening paste, products that do not scratch the tooth surface and do not etch or erosion on the tooth surface should be preferred.

Applied with the right people and the right products, whitening does not harm the teeth. It does not cause deterioration in the structure of the teeth. It allows you to clean the colorations accumulated in the structure of the teeth over the years and to have a cleaner, white and eye-catching smile and to protect the dental tissue. Our self-confident smiles should not be missing 😉

Robot Humanity Starts Mouth

by admin

One of the best parts of our age is that technology is being developed day by day to make our life easier. Technology continues to develop rapidly in the medical field as in all fields. The semi-robot people and ironman characters that we are used to seeing in the movies have started to come true because of the needs. Now robotic arms and legs, vision and hearing implants and dental implants have become normal cases that we often encounter. Fortunately, it has been possible to see a faulty human treatment aside from replacing various diseases, accidents or congenital deficiencies in the recent past.

Dental implants started with the use of animal teeth in history and nowadays, with advanced technology and sterile treatments, they started to become superior treatments where you can have a completely natural tooth appearance. Hundreds of implant manufacturers are competing every year to make biocompatible implants with new innovative developments. For this reason, the success rate of dental implant bone connection has reached ninety percent success levels, and it has been used for a long time with aesthetic prostheses and vener crowns. In the first years of implant technology, 6 months of waiting for bone attachment has been reduced to 3 months over time, and treatment techniques have been developed as soon as we call immediat in people with sufficient bone quality. Although the implant was developed to replace missing teeth, bone grafts and soft tissue grafts, as well as hard and soft tissue losses, began to be compensated and replaced with implant technology.

Dental implants can be made in various numbers and sizes from single tooth deficiency to whole jaw tooth deficiency.

Designing implants with intraoral examinations, three-dimensional radiographs, shows successful results when supported by prosthetics with high biofunctional compatibility and aesthetics.

Keeping the oral hygiene at the optimum level of the people with the implant increases the long-term success of the implants and prostheses and the intraoral adaptation time.
