The Best and Worst Foods for Your Teeth
If you are what you eat, that's even more true for your #teeth and gums. When you drink and eat starchy or sugary foods, you're not only feeding yourself. You're also feeding the germs (bacteria) that can cause #tooth decay and #gumdisease in your mouth. #Plaque is a thin, invisible, sticky film of sticky #bacteria and other materials. It covers all the surfaces of all your teeth. When sugars or starches in your #mouth come in contact with plaque, acids form. These acids can attack your teeth for 20 minutes or longer after you finish eating. Repeated attacks can break down the hard #enamel on the surface of teeth. This leads to tooth decay. The bacteria in plaque also triggers an inflammatory response. This causes the breakdown of the gums, bone, and other supporting structures of your teeth.
Eat for a #healthy mouth
The ADA offers these tips to help reduce tooth-decay risk from the foods you eat:
Eat sugary foods with meals. Your mouth makes more saliva during meals. This helps to reduce the effect of acid production and to rinse pieces of food from the mouth.
Limit between-meal snacks. If you crave a snack, choose something nutritious. Think about chewing sugarless gum afterward to increase saliva flow and wash out food and acid.
Drink more water. Fluoridated water can help prevent tooth decay. If you choose bottled water, check the label for the fluoride content.
Brush your teeth twice a day.
Floss once a day.

How do I keep my teeth and gums healthy?
It is easy to get your #mouth clean and #healthy and keep it that way. A simple routine can help prevent most #dental problems:
brushing your #teeth last thing at night and at least one other time during the day, with a #fluoride toothpaste
spit out after brushing and do not rinse, so that the fluoride stays on your teeth longer
cleaning between the teeth with ‘interdental' brushes or floss at least once a day
good eating habits - having sugary foods and drinks less often, and
regular dental check-ups.
Although most people brush regularly, many don't clean between their teeth and some people don't have regular dental check-ups. A few small changes in your daily routine can make a big difference in the long term. At Vistasol Dental our team can remove any build-up on your teeth and treat any #gumdisease that has already appeared. But daily dental care is up to you, and the main weapons are the toothbrush, toothpaste and interdental cleaning (cleaning between your teeth). What is plaque?
Plaque is a thin, sticky film of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth.
How can plaque cause decay?
When you eat foods containing sugars and starches, the bacteria in plaque produce acids, which attack tooth enamel. The stickiness of the plaque keeps these acids in contact with your teeth. After constant acid attack, the tooth enamel breaks down forming a hole or cavity.

We normally associate #dental problems with #tooth decay and inflammation. However, there is another category known as tooth cervical #lesions which is attributed to abfraction. This is tooth wear that is not caused by tooth decay and disease. Also described as non carious cervical lesions (NCCL), these develop gradually over the years. They are generally present on the facial side, that is, the outer side of the teeth.
Various reasons have been offered as explanation for their development. Most of us have heard the terms erosion, abrasion, attrition and abfraction. Though all of these refer to wearing of the tooth enamel, these are terms for the different processes involved. Abfraction is a somewhat newer concept introduced by Grippo in 1991.
In simplest words, abfraction can be described as breaking away. It is characterized by minuscule wedges or grooves at the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) or the neck of the tooth at the gum line. These are thought to occur due to biomechanical loading. In other words, these are due to excessive force generated while chewing and by oral habits like bruxing. There is a lot of controversy regarding the existence of this process but sufficient evidence is present that points towards it.

1. Get there on time
Nothing is worse for #anxiety than rushing and knowing that you are late. First of all, If you are visiting somewhere for the first time scout it out beforehand. Then you will know exactly where you are heading, and will be able to give yourself plenty of time. It is better to be 20 minutes early than 5 minutes late.
2. Have a book to read in case they run late.
This often does happen, so take a book or magazine. Or play a game on your phone, because this helps to take your mind off what you are about to do.
3. Take some music
And also some headphones. This can help to reduce the noise or the drill, if that is what puts you off. Do arrange with the #dentist before you put your EarPods in what the signal to stop is though.
4. Hold a friend’s hand
Sometimes having a friend or partner there can really help.
5. Practice self #hypnosis or #meditation
Try and distance yourself from the whole experience using deep breathing and picturing yourself being in more pleasant surroundings. For instance, imagine that you are on a beach or in a tranquil forest.
6. Find a #sympatheticdentist
If you ask friends and relatives, you will very likely find someone amongst them who is also anxious. Maybe they can recommend a #gooddentist in the area? At the end of the day, if a dentist has been recommended by a fellow anxious patient, that dentist is probably going to be a good choice. It may help to work out exactly what you are scared of. It could be injections? Maybe it is drilling? Perhaps you had a bad experience as a child? Do write a list and discuss these fears with your dentist. Also ask all the questions that you need to. They will listen and be able to tailor your treatment around your anxieties. Arrange a signal that you will use to tell the dentist to stop if you need a break during the treatment.
7. Think Positive
Try not to think negative thoughts. Most #dental problems can be sorted painlessly. And even if you do know that you need lots of treatment, this can be done in lots of small steps if you wish.

Why Do Regular Dental Visits Matter?
With the #coronavirus pandemic, for the first time in modern history, #dentists were required to close for routine and preventive care for their patients. In California, this lasted for a period of about 10 weeks. For those of our patients who were scheduled for their #dental evaluation and professional #teeth cleaning during this time, this was a major frustration. For those who typically only see the #dentist when a problem arises, this was no big deal.
If you find yourself wondering why this was a big deal to so many, you need to know why regular, consistent dental visits matter! During your regularly scheduled “check-up” appointments, we typically perform two all-important tasks: full mouth dental evaluations and professional teeth cleanings.
Consistent Dental Evaluations
This is the part that most patients think of as the “check-up”. Dr. Adhami performs an exam known as a periodic oral evaluation. About once a year, this evaluation will also include a small series of close-up dental x-rays. There are several reasons that these consistent dental evaluations are necessary for great #oral health.
Early Detection
One important generalization to understand is that all dental problems are progressive in nature. They typically start small and get worse over time without intervention. (An exception to this would be a large trauma to the face or mouth.) During your periodic oral evaluation, Dr. Adhami is looking for any signs of dental disease, including gum disease, cavities, and cracked teeth. When we catch problems in their early stages, the treatment is less expensive and less extensive. We want to provide you with the most conservative treatment possible. That is only possible when we treat dental problems in an early stage.
Prevention
We don’t have to wait for problems to start! There are risk factors in each category of dentistry that are detectable by your dentist. When we see the presence of certain risk factors, we can make preventive recommendations to actually prevent the problem from happening. That why regular dental visits are essential to keep your mouth #healthy
#montebellodentist #dentistry
Most people understand that proper #oral #hygiene results in a #mouth that smells, looks, and is #healthy For one to have stable oral #health it means that: – Teeth are clean and free of debris – Gums need to be attached firmly against #teeth and shouldn’t hurt or bleed during #brushing or #flossing – One should not have a problem with bad #breath constantly.
If gums bleed or hurt during brushing or flossing, or if bad #breath is a persistent problem it may be indicative of a problem.
Maintaining proper oral hygiene is probably one of the best things anyone can do for #gums and #teeth Healthy teeth help one feel and look good and make it possible to speak and eat properly.
Daily preventative #care ensures that problems are stopped before they develop. A simple everyday routine ensures that any treatment is inexpensive, less expensive, and less worrisome than treating conditions that have progressed.
Between visits to the #dentist there are some simple oral hygiene instructions that help to reduce the chances of developing #gumdisease #toothdecay and various other #dental problems. They include: – Brushing teeth thoroughly twice a day and flossing daily – Eating a balanced #diet – Rinsing teeth using #fluoride #mouthwash – Brush teeth for not less than 2 minutes twice daily to prevent #plaque buildup. – Use a brush with soft bristles and hold it at a 45-degree angle against the gum line. Use short strokes to brush gently from where the gum and tooth meet to the chewing surface. – Use short sweeping strokes to brush the chewing surface of teeth and tip bristles to ensure that the pits of the back teeth are reached. – By holding the brush nearly vertically, clean the inner surfaces of the bottom and top front teeth and gums. Bring the front of the brush over the gums and teeth using a back and forward motion. – To get rid of odor-causing bacteria and to freshen breath, brush the tongue.
Oral hygiene Instructions for Flossing
Flossing is important since it gets rid of plaque between teeth and under the gum line. The best time to floss is at night before bed since it removes any food particles accumulated from the daily meals. #cosmeticdentist

El mal aliento, conocido como #halitosis es un problema que afecta la seguridad de muchas personas y por ende su relación con los demás, por ello siempre están en la búsqueda de productos para disimular el mal olor, como gomas de mascar, dulces con sabor a menta, enjuagues bucales y demás. Pero lo cierto es que solo se trata de medidas temporarias que no logran combatir el origen de dicho problema. Aquí es importante revisar los hábitos que se tienen en cuanto a la higiene bucal.
Después realizar los respectivos cambios en el estilo de vida, por ejemplo cepillarse después de cada comida sin olvidar la lengua, usar hilo #dental y beber abundante agua. Evitar el tabaco, ya que estas personas son más propensas a tener encías enfermas, siendo una fuente de mal aliento. Otras posibles causas son el consumo de alimentos como cebollas, ajos y especias, tener la boca seca, #medicamentos e infecciones. Te presentamos algunas formas naturales que pueden llegar a ser útiles para eliminar el mal aliento, si esto no sucede es conveniente acudir con un especialista. #dentista #limpiezaprofunda #dientes #dentadura #dientesblancos #clinicadental #dentistry

What problems may older people have?
Your gums may recede (shrink back) as you get older, and your #teeth may become a little more sensitive as a result. Your #dental team will be able to show you the best brushing methods to keep any gum problems under control, and may suggest a #mouthwash to deal with the sensitivity.
You may find it more difficult to clean your teeth properly if you have problems with your hands or arms, or if your eyesight is poor. Your dental team can give you help and advice on the best aids to use. A magnifying mirror and a good light are often helpful.
If you have lost some teeth in the past, and have bridges or dentures, you may have particular cleaning needs and problems. Your dental team can help you with these.
Some people take regular medication which makes their #mouth dry. Saliva helps to protect your teeth against decay, so if you have less saliva than usual ask your #dentist for advice. Or you can buy special products, including artificial saliva, in most pharmacies without a prescription.
Should I expect to have problems with my gums?
#Gumdisease is caused by a build-up of bacteria called 'plaque'. #Plaque forms constantly on your teeth. It is important to remove this plaque to avoid gum inflammation (swelling and soreness). If the plaque is not removed, the gum disease will, in time, affect the bone under the gums. This bone supports the #tooth roots, so your teeth may gradually become loose.
How do I know if I have gum disease?
As it is often painless, many people may not know that they have gum disease. Some common signs are:
Gums that bleed when brushed.
Loose teeth.
Receding gums.
Bad breath.
Not everyone has all these signs. You may have only one.
Can I still get tooth decay?
Yes. The same dental plaque that causes gum inflammation can cause decay, particularly if you have sugary foods and drinks often. There is a particular risk of decay at the gum edge when the gum has receded, as the 'neck' of the tooth is not protected by enamel (the hard coating that covers most of the tooth).
#montebellodentist #dentalclinic #dentistry #cosmeticdentist #teethcleaning #dentures #bridges #partialdentures #generaldentist
a crown is a “cap” customized to cover a patient’s tooth. Typically, this procedure serves to restore a tooth’s shape and size, increase its strength, or enhance performance. In a successful procedure, the crown is cemented into place, perfectly encasing the tooth for full protection.
#Crowns are often necessary for the following scenarios:
Large cavities that can’t be filled
Missing teeth when a bridge is needed
Coverage for dental implants
Cracked, worn down, or weak teeth
Restoration after a root canal
Cosmetic reasons like discolored or badly shaped teeth
Temporary crowns can be made right in your dentist's office to give a tooth coverage, while the permanent crown is made off-site, typically in a #dental laboratory. Temporary crowns are often made of acrylic-based material or stainless steel.
Stainless Steel: Stainless steel crowns are typically a temporary solution used to protect a tooth or filling while a permanent crown (made from a different material) is being prepared. Stainless steel crowns are often used for children to protect a primary tooth from additional decay—that way, when the permanent tooth arrives, the crown comes out naturally.
Metals: Metal crowns normally include alloys with a high gold/platinum content, or base-metal alloys like cobalt-chromium and nickel-chromium. These alloys can endure the wear and tear of long-term biting and chewing, and are considered very durable since they rarely chip or break. The color is the main disadvantage, which is why they’re often used for molars near the back of the mouth.
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal: This type of crown is a solid option for front or back teeth, or when a bridge demands the strength provided by the metal. The advantage of the porcelain is appearance; the color can be matched to neighboring teeth. However, porcelain does have its disadvantages: it shows more wear, can chip or break off, and over time a dark metal “line” can show through.
All-Ceramic or All-Porcelain: Easily considered the best #cosmeticdentalcrown #montebellodentist #dentalcrown #dentist #dentistry #dental #teeth #tooth #cosmeticdentist #montebellodentalcenter
Oral health is about so much more than just the #health of the #mouth #teeth and #gums
Because the mouth is a primary entryway into the body, poor #oralhealth can have negative consequences for the entire body. Teeth that ache, gums that bleed, and #breath that smells bad are all indicators of poor oral health. Bacteria from the mouth can easily get into the bloodstream and cause infection and inflammation wherever it spreads.
It is important to practice good oral #hygiene and to see your #dentist regularly in order to avoid serious risk to the body’s overall health

Good oral hygiene is necessary to keep teeth and gums healthy. It involves habits such as brushing twice a day and having regular dental checkups.
However, oral health is about more than cavities and gum disease. Research has shown that there is an association between the health of a person’s mouth and their overall health. Experts consider oral health problems to be a global health burden.
Without treatment, tooth decay or gum problems can lead to pain, problems with self-confidence, and tooth loss. These issues may lead to malnutrition, speech problems, and other challenges in a person’s work, school, or personal life.
People can prevent these problems with proper dental care, both at home and in the dentist’s office. The following are some best practices that can keep teeth and gums healthy.
1. Brush regularly but not aggressively
2. Use fluoride
3. Floss once a day
4. See a dentist regularly ( twice a year)
5. Do not smoke
6. Consider a mouthwash
7. Limit sugary foods and starches
8. Drink water instead of sugary drinks

WHAT IS TOOTH BONDING?
Tooth bonding (dental bonding) is a #cosmetic #dental procedure that repairs a chipped, cracked, or otherwise broken tooth. It also helps with discolored teeth, gaps between the teeth, and even lengthening a #tooth hat’s shorter than the rest.
The “bond” is a composite resin the takes over where your tooth broke to make it look as good as new.
Unlike a crown (used for fillings), the composite color will be similar to the color of the tooth, so it continues to look natural.
Why choose tooth bonding, even for a small chip?
Many people are most concerned with their smile, but fixing chips and cracks is also vital for your #oralhealth in general. It helps you chew properly and prevents further damage that could even threaten the #health of the surrounding #teeth
WHO DOES TEETH BONDING WORK BEST FOR?
#Toothbonding is best for teeth that suffered minor injuries and aren’t severely decayed.
If you lost a tooth (or most of a tooth) or the tooth is severely damaged, you may favor a #dentalimplant over bonding. Dental implants replace the tooth and root entirely with an implant and a #porcelaincrown
Additionally, tooth bonding is best for people who are already happy with the color of their teeth. If you have always wanted to whiten your teeth, you need to do it before you ask your #dentist for teeth bonding. At vistasol dental our #dentists choose a bond similar to the color of your natural teeth.
