Maintaining good oral hygiene is one of the most important things you can do for your teeth and gums. Healthy teeth not only enable you to look and feel good, they make it possible to eat and speak properly. Cavities are treated by removing the decayed portion of the tooth and then filling the area on the tooth where the decayed material was removed. Sometimes people wonder whether there is a need to look after a child's first teeth since they fall out anyway. Teaching your child proper oral care at a young age is an investment in his or her health that will pay lifelong dividends. These include the treatment of teeth that are discolored, chipped, misshapen or missing. Some people get their teeth bleached to make stains disappear, while other just want a whiter shade. Root canal treatment is needed when the nerve of the tooth is infected through decay or injury. A crown is a type of dental restoration which completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. This time-saving, computer-aided process allows dentists to construct, produce and insert individual ceramic restorations in a single appointment. Porcelain veneers are translucent, stain resistant, and mimics the light handling characteristics of your own dental enamel. Dental implants are permanent and are installed directly into the jawbone. This means they rely on the jawbone itself to hold the new tooth root in place, unlike other tooth replacements that put additional stress on the surrounding teeth. Crooked teeth and teeth that do not fit together correctly are harder to keep clean, are at risk of being lost early due to tooth decay and periodontal disease, and cause extra stress on the chewing muscles.
