19.01.2022 Tips and Tricks Thursday!

18.01.2022 Do you brush your teeth? How often? When should we brush our teeth? and for how long? which toothpaste is the best? 50% OF AUSTRALIANS DO NOT BRUSH TEETH TWICE A DAY. Only half of all Australians brush their teeth twice a day and it's contributing to high levels of decay across the country.... The ADA (Australian Dental Association) recommends brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste for two minutes each time. When you brush your teeth, you help remove food and plaque a sticky white film that forms on your teeth and contains bacteria. Brushing is recommended usually in the morning before breakfast and before you go to bed at night. Each time you brush, be sure to clean the inner, outer and chewing sides of your teeth. Any other questions? just ask us in the comment section below.

Lloyd is an active member of the Toowoomba Mountain Bike Club and most weekends you will find him out on the trails around Toowoomba. So don't wait any longer, book your appointments now on 46356838

12.01.2022 Do you floss your teeth? How often? Should we floss before or after brushing our teeth? ONLY 5% OF THE POPULATION REGULARLY FLOSS. The ADA (Australian Dental Association) recommends cleaning between teeth with floss (or another interdental cleaner) once a day. Flossing is hugely important for reducing your risk of tooth decay or gum disease as a large majority of plaque and build up occurs in-between the teeth.... Regular flossing may also reduce gum disease and bad breath by removing plaque that forms along the gum line. It's best to floss before brushing your teeth. Make sure you add flossing to your daily routine. Any other questions? just ask us in the comment section below.

12.01.2022 Has the cost of treatments prevented you from visiting the dentist or getting much needed treatments done? Guess what!..

Openpay is great for the bigger treatments (e.g crowns, root canals, implants) with plans ranging from 124 months (depending on your purchase). You’ll pay your first instalment on the day, the rest is spread over weekly or fortnightly instalments.

03.01.2022 Night Guard What is a night guard? A night guard, is a transparent, thin device which is worn over the biting surface of the teeth, when sleeping. It prevents the top and bottom teeth from touching.... Wearing a night guard provides a cushioning effect so that the upper and lower teeth can't wear away at each other. It will protect your teeth from external damage caused by grinding, such as chipping and erosion. Night guards are custom-moulded to your teeth, so they fit in your mouth without being bulky or uncomfortable. What health issues does a night guard prevent? Teeth wear: Likely you’re not going to notice that your teeth are wearing down, but your dentist can tell. When you come in for regular cleaning and maintenance, the hygienist and dentist inspect your teeth. When the protective enamel wears down, the tooth underneath is exposed and more prone to cavities, discolouration, fracturing, failing restorations and other problems. Tooth or crown cracking: The clenching and grinding can cause enough pressure on the teeth to crack or fracture (break) the actual tooth or crown. While the teeth are designed for the pressures of eating and biting, they’re not meant to sustain additional pressure from long-term clenching or grinding. This action can harm teeth, causing fractures or cracking. So if you feel you are grinding your teeth at night while you are sleeping, don’t wait any longer. Book your appointment now at Westridge Dental to consult with our expert dentists and get your Night Guard to stop damaging your teeth. We do care about your SMILE.
