Periodontology Treatment
Pregnancy can affect oral health due to hormonal changes, increasing the risk of: • Gum inflammation (pregnancy gingivitis) • Pregnancy tumors (harmless overgrowths on gums) • Enamel erosion from morning sickness Maintaining regular brushing, flossing, and safe dental check-ups during pregnancy is crucial for both mother and baby’s health.
Zirconium crowns are durable, metal-free dental restorations made from zirconia, known
for:
• Exceptional strength and resistance to fractures
• Biocompatibility, reducing the risk of allergic reactions
• Natural-looking aesthetics due to their tooth-like translucency
• Longevity with proper oral care
These crowns are widely used for both front and back teeth, offering a combination of
aesthetics and durability.
Tartar (calculus) is hardened plaque that cannot be removed by brushing alone. It
accumulates along the gumline and between teeth.
Treatment:
• Professional scaling and cleaning are required to remove tartar
• Regular cleanings help prevent its buildup
Preventing tartar starts with daily brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits.
Causes of Tooth Stains:
• Foods and drinks like coffee, tea, red wine
• Tobacco use
• Aging and enamel thinning
Whitening Methods:
• Professional in-clinic whitening treatments
• Over-the-counter whitening products (less effective for deep stains)
Professional methods offer faster, more noticeable, and longer-lasting results.
After a root canal treatment:
• Expect mild tenderness, which usually subsides in a few days
• Avoid hard or chewy foods until the tooth is fully restored with a filling or crown
• Maintain oral hygiene, being gentle around the treated tooth
Regular dental follow-ups ensure the long-term success of the treatment.
