Preventing Bad Breath

Preventing Bad Breath

In today’s society, we are constantly having to bob and weave through the many layers of social standards that are ever changing. Some of these standards, like certain beauty standards, seem to ask a little too much of the members of our society. However, there are some social agreements that we seem to automatically adhere to when we decide to include ourselves in the voluntary aspects of that society. One of those social agreements is not having terrible breath. I know, I know. How dare I call out a biological occurrence that we might have little control over. I know that it might seem shallow, but identifying the root of your bad breath might actual address potentially serious health problems. Not only do most people want to interact with others without having to feel embarrassed, but we should all want to be aware of something that could help us be more aware of our personal health. Causes of Bad Breath One of the biggest causes of bad breath is bacteria. This can be a result of so many different things, but commonly, this bacteria is a result of food particles left in and around your teeth causing a bad odor. […]

Preventing Tooth Decay

After you lose your baby teeth, the teeth that grow in are those that you’ll be stuck with for the rest of your life. There isn’t another set that will magically grow in if you lose an adult tooth. Because of that, it’s vital that you maintain excellent oral health. While there are always measures to make up for missing teeth, the first line of defense should always be to protect your own natural teeth.

Pros & Cons of At Home Teeth Whitening
From your dentist in San Marcos TX

Everyone craves to have that beautiful and stunning smile. A pleasant smile radiates some warmth when given to people in certain situations. However, this may not be the case if you are struggling with poor dental health. Some oral problems such as bad breath and dry mouth tend to take away a person’s self-esteem and confidence. On the other hand, colored or stained teeth are considered an embarrassing situation. However, this should not cause you any trauma because there are various options of bringing back your bright smile. Tooth whitening is the most common, and it involves cosmetic dentistry. The procedure offers two preferences; in-office-based and at-home care teeth bleaching. This article is all about the latter. At-home care teeth bleaching involves the use of bleach usually applied on a set of trays for your teeth. You must visit the dentist to obtain a set of trays. Home application products are available over the counter, and the most common are carbamide or hydrogen peroxides. Nonetheless, the results from the at-home solution may not be as good as those from the in-office-based system. The office-based system uses a stronger solution unlike the peroxides, which is weaker.
