23.01.2022 Dental Build-up - heavily worn teeth (bruxism) damages and shortens teeth, resulting in loss of bite and difficulty in chewing. Causes of bruxism are several: it can be caused by stress but a lot of times it is caused by incorrect or imbalanced occlusion (or bite) of your teeth. Wearing a night guard is the first step. Heavily worn (shortened teeth) can be restored by a procedure called build-up wherein our Principal Dentist, Dr. Andrew Sih, freehandedly sculpts your teeth back to their original shapes and sizes using a material called composite. An added advantage is that this procedure can also brighten and beautify your teeth.

23.01.2022 How to use dental floss The use of dental floss is as important as using tooth brushes. Normally tooth brushes cannot remove food particles left between two teeth, which can only be cleared by flossing. It is not uncommon to hear people say: I dont know how to floss.... Below are methods to show you how to use a dental floss: 1.Use your middle and index fingers on both hands to twirl and hold the floss securely 2.Thread the floss between two teeth, moving towards the gum line, any food particles trapped between the two teeth will come loose and can be easily removed. 3.Use the same process with all other teeth.

23.01.2022 Oral Health vs General Health Recent studies indicate that there is a link between oral health and general health. Keeping your teeth and gums in top condition is a simple, yet important way to help maintain good overall health. Gum disease is associated with diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis and preterm births....

19.01.2022 Likely causes of tooth discolouration are dental plaque and calculus,tobacco staining, coffee, coloured food or drinks. Home/ in house bleaching are available at a very affordable cost.

18.01.2022 What is the proper way of teeth brushing? Since young, we have been told to brush our teeth at least twice a day, morning and night. However, we have not been taught as to how to properly brush our teeth and are just brushing the surfaces of our teeth. The proper way to brush our teeth is to brush the gums as well as teeth. It is important to keep the gums clean and free of food particles to prevent decays and other gum disease. When we brush our teeth, we should also gently brush the gums, care must be taken not to brush too hard or put too much pressure on the gums or the gums will shrink, resulting in receding gums.

18.01.2022 Mouth Wash A lot of people use mouth wash to freshen their breath. It is to be noted that some mouthwashes may contain high levels of alcohol and chlorhexidine. Excessive alcohol content will cause dryness in the mouth and chlorhexidine can cause tooth staining .

15.01.2022 Loose teeth/lose teeth We lose our teeth when we grow old. This is a common belief. However according to Dr. Andrew Sih, we dont lose our teeth because we grow old, we lose our teeth because we have advance periodontal (gum disease). The plague and calculus infect the bones, destroying the gums and bones. In advance periodontal disease, lots of bones are lost, teeth will become loose and eventually fall out.

14.01.2022 Flossing is as important as brushing your teeth. Want to learn how to floss? See this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3ZAj-fXKMY

11.01.2022 Five Steps to a healthy smile! http://www.healthyteeth.org/prevention/5steps.html

11.01.2022 Last week we had an emregency patient coming in with two broken front teeth. Broken front teeth can easily be restored by using dental materials called Composites. Experience and skills of the dentist are vital in this procedure. Dr. Andrew Sih uses layers of composites with different hues, tones and chroma to achieve a natural result.

11.01.2022 Teeth Grinding (Bruxism) - A lot of people grind their teeth at night, due to a number of reasons: stress, incorrect bite, missing or crooked teeth. Continual grinding shortens and damages teeth. Wearing a custom made splint or night guard can stop the situation from deteriorating.

10.01.2022 Dental Implants Dental implants are artificial parts surgically placed in the jaw for securing crowns and bridges to help replace missing teeth. http://www.dentistbondisydney.com.au//what-is-dental-impla

06.01.2022 Bleeding Gum If you brush or floss your teeth and your gums bleed, this is a warning signal that your gums are not healthy. The best thing to do is: 1.Use the proper method to brush your teeth (please see earlier posting in our facebook). When we brush our teeth, it is not just the teeth we brush, we should lightly brush the gums also. Healthy teeth begins with health gums 2.Use dental floss to remove any food particles left between your teeth.... 3.Use salt water to rinse your mouth every night before retiring. Salt water is very good for gums. If your gums appear red and swollen, (see photos below), this means that you are in the early stage of gum disease (gingivitis). At this time you should 1. go to see your dentist, have your teeth professionally cleaned to remove all tartar, and 2. start caring for your teeth as stated above.
