21.01.2022 Dental Problems and Diabetes People with poorly controlled diabetes are at greater risk for dental problems. They're more likely to have infections of their gums and the bones that hold their teeth in place, because diabetes can reduce the blood supply to the gums.... High blood sugar may also cause dry mouth and make gum disease worse. Less saliva can allow more tooth-decaying bacteria and plaque buildup. With good blood sugar control and dental care, you can avoid these problems. Symptoms to Watch for and should call your dentist if you: Have bleeding or sore gums Get infections often Have bad breath that won't go away Prevent problems by taking good care of your gums and teeth. Brush and floss at least twice a day. Rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash daily. Get a dental checkup every 6 months. Let your dentist know that you have diabetes.

14.01.2022 Dental inlays, onlays, fillings, and crowns: whats their difference? Like fillings, inlays involve removing the decayed part of the tooth with a drill and filling the space. The difference between the two is how the space is filled. With fillings, an amalgam or composite material is directly placed into the prepared tooth where it sets and hardens. It is a quick process that can be done in one dental visit.... As for inlays, the space is filled with a single, solid piece fabricated from a dental impression of your tooth. Inlays are more expensive than fillings and for this reason, they are reserved for patients willing to pay the additional cost. And while both tooth restorations fill cavities, inlays are reserved for the larger ones. When there is too much damage or decay in the tooth structure to be treated using fillings or inlays, onlays and dental crowns are used. Onlays differ from inlays in that they cover the cusp of a tooth while inlays fit between the cusps. Dental caries is also drilled out of the tooth and an onlay fitting the exact shape and size of the space is fabricated. A dental crown, on the other hand, is more of a replacement than a repair. Once the cavity is removed, a tooth-shaped cap is placed and cemented on the tooth completely covering it. Onlays require less tooth structure to be removed compared to dental crowns.

14.01.2022 Do you suffer from dental anxiety? Dental anxiety is a term used to describe fear, anxiety or stress in a dental setting. Being scared to visit the dentist can result in delaying or avoiding dental treatment which ultimately leads to bigger dental issues.

13.01.2022 A happy heart is a good medicine and a positive mind works healing in your busy day....Don't forget to SMILE and have a good LAUGH because it always adds colour to your life! Happy weekend everyone! Bring some colour to our world.

06.01.2022 WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT DENTAL CROWNS Whether youve been dealing with a persistent toothache or in need of aesthetic work for a beautiful smile, you may need to invest in dental work, such as dental crowns. A crown can be placed over a tooth that needs protection and cover the tooths entire surface, restructuring and improving its appearance. What Does a Dental Crown Do?... Dental crowns protect teeth weakened by decay from further damage and restore broken teeth by holding fragments together. When a tooth has a large filling after a root canal, for instance a dental crown can support its structure. Crowns can also cover misshapen, discolored, or otherwise cosmetically-damaged teeth and hold dental bridges or implants in place. If you would like to know more, please call 08 9305 1902 and book an appointment with one of our fabulous dentists and you may also be entitled to take advantage of our discounted Crown promotion (Terms and conditions apply)

06.01.2022 COVID-19 LOCKDOWN - Please be advised that due to Level 3 restrictions, Brighton Beach Dental will unfortunately be closed for the period during lockdown.

04.01.2022 Everyday is a new beginning.Take a deep breath, smile and start again.

03.01.2022 HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU CHANGE TOOTHBRUSH? Are you one of those people who look at your toothbrush and think - its fine as long as the bristles on the head look okay? A lot of people think like that, but you should change toothbrush more often. Experts advise to change toothbrush every third month or if the bristles on the toothbrush head look overused before three months have passed.... CHANGE TOOTHBRUSH AFTER BEING SICK Did you know that you should change toothbrush for a new one after youve been sick? By doing this you wont carry bacteria with you after being sick. Theres no doubt that a new toothbrush cleans your teeth better and more efficient than a used one, but there are other reasons for changing your toothbrush. After three months using the same toothbrush it will also contain some bacteria. PREVENT BACTERIA ON YOUR TOOTHBRUSH If you dont change toothbrush regularly you risk insufficient cleaning of your teeth, which can lead to dental plaque formation and cause tooth cavity, bad breath or other ailments. 3 TIPS FOR BETTER TOOTHBRUSH HYGIENE Rinse your toothbrush well in clean water after use and put it in a container with the bristles upwards so they can air dry. Avoid direct contact between the toothbrush and the environment around it. A tip is to keep it in a cabinet or drawer. Use a different toothbrush holder for each toothbrush. Bacteria can be transferred from one brush to another if they are kept in the same holder as another family members toothbrush. Do not share your toothbrush with others, and only use your own. HOW TO REMEMBER TO CHANGE TOOTHBRUSH Replace your toothbrush every season: winter, spring, summer and autumn. Change your toothbrush when you go on vacation and each holiday season: You get a fresh start on your vacation. Change your toothbrush when you buy toothpaste: Putting toothbrush up on your grocery store list is easy to forget. So, a good tip is to change your toothbrush each time you buy

03.01.2022 Sports season is upon us and to prevent serious dental injury while active it is always advisable that your child wear a mouthguard. Well-fitted, custom fitted mouthguards can protect your child's teeth and jaw by spreading the impact from contact, reducing the risk of damage to their teeth. With this is mind, Brighton Beach Dental is delighted to support our local sports players by offering no gap or $75.00 for a custom fitted mouthguard (T&c's apply). Please call our lovely front office ladies on 08 9305 1902 for further enquiries

02.01.2022 WHY FLOSSING IS SO IMPORTANT WHEN WEARING BRACES You've made an investment on spending money on getting braces, so why not keep your teeth in good health while undergoing orthodontic treatment? Dr Estelle and her team will tell you it is just as important to develop a regular hygiene routine while you're wearing braces as you did before proceeding with treatment. Flossing is essential to the health of your teeth and gums when you're wearing braces. Because braces may hold fo...od, sugars and liquids upon eating, it is very important to keep on top of your brushing and flossing, as well as visiting our office for regular adjustments. While we know it's tough enough to get kids to floss daily without braces, that battle becomes even tougher when braces are involved. Remember that by not flossing, you will become more prone to cavities and gum disease during your treatment. If you have any questions about flossing or your orthodontic treatment at Brighton Beach Dental, please don't hesitate to give us a call or chat to us during your next adjustment appointment!
