10.01.2022 Flossing If you’re relying solely on brushing to keep your teeth clean, you’re missing nearly half the surface area of your teeth which, not surprisingly, lies between them. For that reason alone, flossing should be an essential part of your oral care routine and never an optional extra. By using floss to remove the plaque from between your teeth, you’re helping to prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and halitosis (otherwise known as bad breath), a considerable amount of up...side for just a couple of minutes effort each day. A part of your routine It’s always best to floss when you’re not in a rush or when you’re too tired to do it well. If you find you're exhausted at the end of the day, then it's a good idea to floss first thing in the morning or after lunch. Alternatively, if you like to go to bed with a clean mouth then floss before your nightly brush. If you have kids, they should begin flossing, with your help up until about age 8, as soon as they have two teeth in contact. How to floss Your dentist is the most qualified person to instruct you on flossing correctly but there are some basic tips you can follow: Tip 1. Wind approximately 45 cm of floss around your middle fingers and grip it tightly between your thumbs and index fingers. Tip 2. Keeping the thumb and forefingers close together, gently guide the floss between the teeth, taking care not to cut or damage your gums with abrupt movement. Tip 3. You should use a gentle up-and-down motion that goes down one side of the tooth, just under the little collar of gum and then back up the other side (think of it as an on-the-side c) If sticking your fingers into your mouth with a cord of thin filaments strung between them isn’t your idea of fun, then consider using either a less invasive floss threader (a nylon loop through which you thread the floss) or floss pick (the floss is held taut between two prongs on a handle) to do the job. And finally, your dentist might also recommend using other items such as bottle brush-shaped interdental cleaners, if you have large gaps between your teeth, or interdental tips (flexible rubber tips) and irrigators (electrically-powered water-pumping devices) to compliment your flossing regimen. Watch your mouth!

01.01.2022 Dr Bill Burn General practitioner dental surgeon . Also DR Burn is a specialist forensic Odontologist which qualifies him to give legal expert opinion in relation to dentistry, provide expertise in the coroners court and other courts, provide forensic services to law enforcement and provide expert opinion regarding forensic ID Practice is located at 9/117 Broadway Nedlands Open Mon- Fri ... 9-5. Dr Burn is a very experienced dentist and has practiced in Nedlands since 1978 having graduated from the UWA in 1974 and practicing in a country Shire practice in Moora immediately after graduating till moving to Perth. We carry out all aspects of dentistry in a caring and expert manner to generate the best possible outcomes for a comfortable functional dentition at very reasonable fees. We have elected to not become a contracted health fund provider dentist in order to keep an independent and open minded clinical perspective without pressures from health funds who expect their practising providers to sign contracts locking them into a contract with the health fund which limits clinical independence and practice viability. Patients with health fund insurance still can make a claim for their treatment from our fees even thou I am not a contracted preferred provider, but should question and examine the motives of those health funds that insist that going to one of their preferred providers is better value and good for you the patient. It is more likely good for the profit margins of the insurance companies at the expense of the dentists that have signed contracts with them and limited the patient of choice of the practitioner they wish to treat their teeth. Patients who insure with these health insurer would do better changing to insurers that do not place limitations on the practicing dentist. For information regarding these insurers contact the ADA for the better health fund insurers. Forget insurers that limit your choice of dentist and financially affect the viability of those practices that refuse to sign a contract. See more
