Gum as a mirror of our entire health?

Gum as a mirror of our entire health? YES AND NO! Again and again you read scientific and non scientific articles about vitamin deficiency and it´s consequences. As a result some people take homeopathic medicine-a mistake most of the time! – 99% of gum diseases are attributed to plaque and not to a vitamin deficiency -in industrial countries! [...]

Parodontitis-oral rinse-useful?

 Is an oral rinse useful for parodontitis? YES! An oral rinse is a useful purchase, unfortunately some doctors think it is not useful-with the argument that bacteria rinse into pockets. That´s nonsense, cause first of all bacteria only move due to extensions and second bacteria are harmless at their own. Bacteria only cause parodontitis and/or cavity in the mature plaque.  You only remove [...]

Parodontitis-saliva test–useful?

Parodontitis-saliva test? Yes and no! The last article was about lasers, now we are talking about the next nonsense: the saliva test. It happens again and again that patients who suffer from parodontitis undergo a saliva test at the begin of the therapy. Gratulations! Now you know that you have bacteria in your mouth! If you [...]

Parodontitis-usage of lasers–useful?

Parodontitis-usage of lasers–useful?  Unfortunately parodontitis is still treated with lasers although it is proven unsuccessful. The usage of lasers is futuristic- probably that is why patients are more willing to pay. Non-serious doctors take advantage of this circumstance, aside there are ignorant doctors as well. – Either way the usage of lasers is not useful [...]

Tooth discolorations-dark teeth

Posted by Dental News Team On August - 31 - 2010ADD COMMENTS
The colour of our teeth is crucial for the charme of our smile! Tooth discolorations and dark teeth can be treated… We know that full lips appeal attractive, but without beautiful, white shining lips, “Angelina Jolie” lips would not be perfect. First of all: Teeth are not white! The yellowest tooth is the canine, the lateral incisor is darker than the central incisor-you’ll get more on aesthetic dentistry if you use this link! Now we know: Teeth are not as white as curtains! - The smile line...

Are we all sick and is it possible to have healthy teeth?

Posted by Dental News Team On July - 27 - 2010ADD COMMENTS
We are not sick itself, but our lives depart from our evolutionary roots and thus healthy teeth! In our current systems you are not able to have either healthy teeth or a healthy body! The mammal human is a caring creature, not only designed for work and effort. Our social-political networks always work in the same way-a few people are on easy street at the cost of plenty-charity, warmth and sustainability come last. - - - Few at the cost of plenty? •    The church tells us: „God wants us...

The costs of „Ceramic caps“ vary! You can get veneers from 500€/piece to 1500€/piece. - The costs have nothing to do with the ceramic caps, but with the effort done before-thus wax-up, individual shapes checked with the technician, glue procedure,…you´ll get more informations about veneers and what to take care of, in the video bonding! - Basically the terms veneer, lumineer or non prep veneer don´t necessarily mean to grind down teeth. This myth is advertised over and over again-they...

Root treatment or implant?

Posted by Dental News Team On June - 30 - 2010ADD COMMENTS
Which therapy is appropriate for me-root treatment or implant? Over and over you hear horror storys about “dead” teeth, thus root treated teeth. But: There are no “dead” teeth existing. The tooth is a mineral and thus “lifeless”. The tooth has a tissue-the pupla. If the pulpa is infected, e.g. caused by cavity, a root treatment should be performed. If a bad root treatment is performed-thus without a coffer dam, visual augment and sterile endo box- the root treated tooth is like poison...

Dental visit-some rules to tooth pain

Posted by Dental News Team On June - 29 - 2010ADD COMMENTS
You would like to start a dental sanitation-what to think about to avoid tooth aches? Get several opinions! Today it is impossible to overview the whole spectrum of dentistry individually. Depending on their personal knowledge dentists mostly suggest only one therapy option unconsciously/consciously. Thus the implatologist will advise towards implantology, the prosthetist towards prosthetics. You are in better hands with a group practice-but be careful. Is it a community of physicians, or flunkies,...
