Bad breath? Bad taste in your mouth? Bleeding and sore gums? General feeling of being unwell? You could have ANUG (acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis). This generally will not clear up on its own and you need to visit your Dental Hygienist. An antibiotic may be required to clear this condition. Visit your Hygienist if you have any of these symptoms: - Severe gum pain - Bleeding from gums when they're pressed even slightly - Red or swollen gums - Pain when eating or swallowing - Gray film on your gums - Crater-like sores (ulcers) between your teeth and on your gums - Foul taste in your mouth - Bad breath - Fever and fatigue (malaise) - Swollen lymph nodes around your head, neck or jaw.

Regular check-ups are essential to your oral health. This way our dentists can look out for any unusual lumps or bumps in the area. If you have any concerns, it would be best to get everything checked to put your mind at ease that it is not anything sinister.

FISSURE SEALANTS - the painless preventative measure in protecting your child's teeth from decay. It is a plastic coating which covers the chewing surfaces of the back adult teeth, which forms a shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the teeth's tiny grooves. As soon as your child's first molars erupt, you should have them fissure sealed.
A Child's First Dentist Visit
Dealing with Anxious first timers? We've found that its all about the language you use. Saying lines such as "it wont hurt" and "there wont be any needle today" DOES NOT HELP. Your child will only hear the words "hurt" and "needle", causing unnecessary nervousness. We advise saying lines such as "the dentist will count and clean your teeth", "you get to have a spin on the dental chair, which moves by pushing buttons" and "you will get a sticker afterwards if you're good" etc. Best practice recommends bringing your child to the dentist as soon as the first tooth erupts, but if no concerns are arising, we would be happy to leave first visit until their 2nd birthday.

During pregnancy, a number of hormonal changes could increase your risk of developing oral health problems, most commonly being Pregnancy Gingivitis. This makes your gums more vulnerable to plaque. Symptoms include inflammation, bleeding on brushing or biting, gum tenderness, swelling, and a redder looking appearance. 50-70% of women will develop this usually during 2nd or 3rd month of pregnancy, and could continue until the 8th month. Ensure you inform the dentist/hygienist of the stage of your pregnancy when you visit, as certain treatments are best left avoided until a later date.

http://www.irishdentistry.ie/sugary-diets-dental-neglect-impacting-elderly-teeth/ We often see patients from nursing homes here at Cork Dental Clinic. "Family and carers should be encouraged to provide low-sugar treats. Patients’ bedrooms often resemble a sweet shop and this will require a cultural change."
