Brushing is important in dental care. The first thing to do is to choose the right toothbrush. The most suitable brush is medium hard and the brush head is small. When the brush head is small, the back teeth can be reached more easily and the nausea reflex is reduced.

In the selection of toothpaste, the one with fluoride should be preferred. A different brand of toothpaste should be purchased each time. Thus, the abrasives contained in it change in shape and size and do not create an abrasion in the same direction. This prevents our teeth from being damaged.

There are toothpastes as well as toothpastes. They are not recommended for daily use as they have too much abrasives. It can be used once or twice a month.

In tooth brushing techniques, the toothbrush is held at an angle of 45 degrees and brushing is started from the gum line towards the oral cavity. Starting from the tooth surfaces, brushing should not be done in hard strokes, but in circles and softly, from the front teeth to the back teeth.

Afterwards, the inner surfaces of the teeth are brushed in the same way and the brush is kept tilted and moved from the gum to the oral cavity.

The chewing surfaces of the teeth are brushed by moving the brush straight back and forth. Thus, healthy gums do not bleed during brushing.

If your teeth bleed while brushing, it means that the bleeding areas are not cleaned well. You shouldn’t stop brushing just because your gums are bleeding. On the contrary, the bleeding site should be brushed more carefully and carefully.

Since the toothbrush is a personal tool, it should not be shared with others. Toothbrushes should be changed every few months, at most every 3-4 months.

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is a treatment used to repair and save a severely decayed or infected tooth. During the root canal treatment process, the nerve and tooth pulp (pulp) are removed, the inner part of the tooth is cleaned and filled. Starting root canal treatment early is important for saving the tooth. When the aching tooth is neglected for a long time, the infection spreads to the surrounding tissues and the tooth is lost.

What is root canal treatment?

To understand root canal treatment, it is necessary to have a general knowledge of the structure of the tooth. Tooth, from outside to inside; It consists of 3 main layers: enamel, dentin and pulp. The natural space in the center of the tooth is also called the root canal. The pulp is the soft tissue inside the root canal. This tissue is rich in blood vessels and nerves that nourish the tooth.

In ancient times, when an infection or inflammation progressed to the pulp layer, the tooth was no longer salvageable and was pulled out. Recent developments allow the pulp layer of the tooth to be cleaned and refilled. Although the pulp and the nerves inside are removed, the tooth fulfills its basic function. This is because the dental nerves are not of vital importance after the teeth come out of the gums and take their final shape. The only function of dental nerves in adults is sensory functions such as feeling the sensation of heat and cold.

When the nerve tissue or pulp of a tooth is damaged, it breaks down and bacteria begin to multiply there. Bacteria can lead to a massive infection or abscess. An abscess is a pus-filled swelling that forms at the end of the tooth roots. If dental caries is not treated, it can lead to serious conditions such as bone loss around the root.
