What Issues Can Dentists Treat?

Dentists in Toronto are highly trained professionals who can provide comprehensive preventative and restorative dental care. They specialize in maintaining oral health through routine cleanings and check-ups and can diagnose, treat, and prevent a range of oral health issues. From simple cavities and gum disease to complicated root canals and implant dentistry, Toronto dentists provide excellent care for patients of all ages. And they don’t just specialize in dental treatments; they also provide advice on proper dental hygiene, tips to maintain long term oral health, and treatments to address painful teeth and jaw issues. With the right care and precautions, dentists in Toronto can help patients keep their teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime.


What Happens During a Check-up?

At a dental check up, your dentist will focus on assessing the health of your teeth and gums. After a dental hygiene cleaning, your dentist will visually examine your mouth for any cavities and for any loose or broken teeth. If a cavity is detected, your dentist will clean around the cavity and fill it. Your dentist may also take X-rays to help assess any underlying problems in the teeth or jaw. After the exam, your dentist may discuss with you options for improving or sustaining your oral health, such as diet advice, toothbrush and flossing tips, and recommendations for sealants or fluoride treatments.


Tips for Good Oral Health

Taking care of our oral health is an important thing to prioritize, and keeping in mind simple practices can help us keep a healthy smile. Here are five tips for taking care of your teeth: 1. Brush your teeth for two minutes two times a day. 2. Floss once per day. 3. Replace your toothbrush every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles are fraying. 4. Visit your dentist for check ups and cleanings every six months. 5. Be aware of foods and drinks that can cause tooth decay and limit the amount of sugary and acidic items you consume. By following these tips, you can help ensure your teeth stay healthy and strong.


Common Dental Problems

Dental problems are common and can range from cavities, to gum disease, to teeth grinding. Cavities are caused by tooth decay, when the enamel - the hard protective outer layer of the tooth - wears away and bacteria set in. Gum disease, or periodontal disease, occurs when the gums become infected and start to pull away from the teeth. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a condition where the individual can grind or clench their teeth, which can eventually lead to teeth being cracked or broken. Proper oral care and regular visits to the dentist can help prevent many of these common dental problems.


How can I find more information relating to oral wellness?

If you are looking for a dentist in Toronto, make sure to check out Opencare's blog, The Floss. The Floss features an extensive collection of articles and resources that can help answer your questions relating to oral wellness. Content featured on The Floss is for both patients and dentists.
