An abscessed tooth is a very painful infection at the root of a tooth or between the gum and a tooth. Commonly caused by tooth decay, this condition can also be caused by trauma to the tooth such as when it is broken and chipped or gum disease. The bacterial infection can cause swelling and inflammation at the tip of the root. • Sensitivity to anything hot or cold that is eaten or drunk. Poor dental hygiene and a diet that is high in sugar can increase your risk of a tooth abscess.
Proper tooth brushing plays an important role in the prevention of tooth decay and gum disease. To maintain good oral hygiene, you need to brush your teeth twice a day.
Have you been ignoring a cavity in your tooth for a long time? An ignored cavity might have infected the pulp of the tooth consisting of small thread like tissues. The removal of this inflamed, infected or dead pulp of the tooth is called root canal treatment. A root canal treatment is done when the pulp of your tooth is damaged because of a cracked tooth or a deep cavity or an injury to your tooth due to an accident. If an infected pulp is left untreated, it forms an abscess at the jaw bone causing pain.
What is a wisdom tooth? Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that most people get in their late teens or early twenties. Sometimes these teeth can be a valuable asset to the mouth when healthy and properly aligned, but more often, they are misaligned and require removal. Wisdom tooth does not create a problem if it erupts in a normal way. But as most dentists say, majority of the people do not get all the four wisdom teeth and those who get it, will mostly have some problem or the other due to it.
Tooth ache indicates that you have a dental problem on your hands which could worsen over time, if neglected. Your dentist can detect the root cause and provide a remedy for it. 1. Chew on a clove or apply a drop of clove oil on the affected part. 2. A paste made from honey and a little alum powder is an excellent remedy for tooth aches. 3. Asafetida, tiny slice of ginger, and a pinch of salt can be kept in the crevices of the tooth.
Does your kid feel sad seeing his tooth shake? Does he question you about it? Do you answer them telling him that a tooth fairy would come by when he is fast asleep, and whisper a few magic words in his ear, and in a few days a new tooth will emerge? All kids have to go through this phase in life when their milk tooth is replaced by permanent ones. By the age of 13, a child doesn't normally have any primary teeth left, and has 28 of the 32 permanent adult teeth. The final permanent teeth to appear are usually the third molars or wisdom teeth, which can come through any time from the late teens to early or even mid-twenties, if at all.
Introduction: Dental caries is also known as tooth decay. The main source of tooth decay is dental plaque. A plaque is a sticky white or yellowish film that always attaches to our tooth surface when food is consumed. One of the most important factors related to cavities is the consumption of carbohydrates or sugar. In children who still drink from the bottle, one of the most important causes of caries is putting them to bed with a bottle. Both juice and milk contain sugar, which remains on the babies teeth overnight resulting in the formation of "Nursing Bottle Caries", usually in the upper teeth.
Do you really enjoy eating sweets or do you simply have a sweet tooth? If you are one of those with a sweet tooth and are trying real hard to get over it for a few obvious reasons, this piece of reading could help you!

Cavities are among the world's most common health problems. These are damaged areas in the hard surface of one's teeth that develop into tiny holes or openings. Cavities are also referred to as tooth decay or dental caries that are caused by a combination of factors including bacteria in the mouth, not cleaning the teeth well, frequent snacking or a high intake of sugary items. Tooth decay and cavities are very common in children, teenagers and older adults and sometimes even in infants.
There is more than tooth brush and tooth paste to keep your gums and teeth healthy. Apart from regular brushing to prevent tooth decay and gum problems, it is very important to have a tooth-friendly diet for a beautiful and healthy smile. A balanced diet including adequate vitamin C, vitamin D, calcium and other important nutrients are essential to maintain a good oral health. Yogurt: The good bacteria in yogurt help to fight bad ones in your mouth. Six-ounces of plain, sugar-free yogurt a day might help knock out germs between the teeth. Yogurt is also a good source of calcium being a milk product.
