Maintaining good oral hygiene is absolutely essential for avoiding serious issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, and general health deficiencies. While there are many things you can do yourself at home to ensure your oral health is in good shape, there are some treatments that must be taken care of by an oral hygiene professional. Although you may not be able to visibly recognise an issue with your mouth, there could be signs of something below the surface which, if left undetected, could cost you a world of money and pain.
Eastern Creek SmileCo Dental’s team focus on oral hygiene, periodontitis and preservation of supporting tooth structures. Upon assessing your needs, your dedicated hygienist will work to devise a care and treatment plan to ensure the health of your teeth and gums is well maintained. This will include recommendations of what you can do yourself at home to minimise your risk of problems developing between your 6-monthly check-ups!
Eastern Creek SmileCo Dental’s custom-made mouth guards will help to protect your teeth by dispersing the impact of any blow or knock to the mouth. They are of much higher quality than over the counter products, which are generally ill-fitted, bulky and uncomfortable. Our mouth guards are specially designed and fabricated to the dimensions of your teeth and mouth, allowing you to bite, speak and breathe normally.
According to the Australian Dental Association (ADA), around one-third of traumatic injuries to teeth are caused by sport. While it is common to see mouth guards used in high-contact sports, they should absolutely be considered where there is any possibility of a knock to the face, such as in cricket or netball. Some sporting injuries can cause ongoing dental expenses, which is why we highly recommend mouth guards as a method of prevention.
Teeth grinding and clenching is a common subconscious movement that occurs for both children and adults during sleep. This can cause a range of issues as a result of a large force being exerted upon the teeth. Worn enamel leading to cracked teeth is one of the more severe outcomes, with headaches and jaw pain more common affects.
Wake up with headaches or jaw pain
Clench their teeth when stressed
Suffer from regular headaches
If your teeth appear to be worn or broken, and you cannot recall damaging them, you may in fact be grinding or clenching. Eastern Creek SmileCo Dental offer custom made night guards that are designed to reduce the impact on your teeth. Made of high quality materials for comfort and durability, they will also assist with keeping your jaw in a relaxed position to prevent muscle pain and headaches.
