Oral Hygiene for a Healthy Smile

Good oral hygiene is essential for a healthy and beautiful smile. At De Drietand, our dentists focus on prevention and oral care to both prevent and treat tooth decay and gum disease. Regular check-ups and maintaining proper oral care can prevent common oral problems and help optimize your oral health.

Common Oral Problems

Sensitive teeth: This can occur due to exposed tooth roots or wear of the tooth enamel.

Inflamed or painful gums: Gum inflammation can cause bleeding during brushing and may indicate gum disease.

Receding or bleeding gums: This is a common symptom of gum inflammation, which can lead to more serious issues such as periodontitis.

Discolored teeth: Tooth discoloration can be caused by diet, smoking, or aging.

Frequent cavities: Having cavities more often may indicate insufficient oral care or a diet high in sugars.

Tartar or plaque: Plaque is a sticky film that accumulates on the teeth, which can eventually lead to tartar buildup and gum disease.

Bad breath: Bad breath can be caused by various factors, such as bacteria in the mouth or inflammation of the gums.

Difficulties with oral care: If you have trouble properly cleaning your teeth, this can lead to a buildup of plaque and tartar.

By recognizing and addressing these issues early, your dentist can work with you to develop a plan to improve your oral health. Preventive care and regular dental visits can help avoid much discomfort and damage in the future.
