25.01.2022 It's important to follow the right diet. Try to reduce or eliminate the amount of sugary food and fizzy drinks you eat and drink. It converts to acid inside your mouth and can dissolve the minerals in tooth enamel, causing decay (caries) and eventually holes (cavities). Acidic foods and drinks can also cause tooth erosion which causes tooth sensitivity, discolouration and cracks over time. To limit the contact of acids with the teeth, eat a healthy, well-balanced diet. For ex...ample, for breakfast you could have a crunchy wholegrain cereal topped with low fat, sugar-free yoghurt and fresh fruit. Throughout the day, limit acidic drinks, such as soft drinks, sports drinks, cordials, wine and even fruit juices in fact, it’s best to eat whole fruit rather than drinking the juice. You get more fibre and less sugar fruit juce can contain up to 10 teaspoons of sugar! The best drinks are less acidic and include still water, milk or tea (without sugar or honey, of course). Another way to help your body fight bacteria in your mouth is by introducing foods that promote saliva production. This includes tart or sour foods, such as limes, lemons, cherries and cranberries.

24.01.2022 Gum disease is a serious and dangerous dental issue that needs to be avoided at all costs. In fact, if you’re not careful, gum disease can cause loose and lost teeth. This disease typically forms when plaque is left on your smile for a long period of time. Here are some tips to help you prevent gum disease: -Keep up on oral hygiene: You need to brush your teeth twice a day, floss your teeth once a day, and rinse your mouth daily. As you do these things, use a soft-bristled to...othbrush, fluoride toothpaste, floss that is easier to use, and antibacterial mouthwash. Brushing, flossing, and rinsing can help you remove plaque from the surfaces of and cracks between your teeth as well as along the gumline. -Visit your dentist: Your regular dental cleaning is vital when preventing gum disease. This is because our tools and techniques will remove the plaque and tartar from your teeth and gumline. Your oral hygiene routine won’t be able to completely clean your smile, which is why dental cleanings are necessary. A friendly reminder from the Country Dental Gunnedah team.

19.01.2022 Why it is important to wear a mouthguard After a football accident this patient came in to see us, in the first photo some of the front teeth have moved out of place. We moved the teeth back into place and splinted them. Splinting teeth is where we attach the loose teeth to the teeth on either side, after a few weeks once the teeth have stabilised the splinting material is removed. It is important that if you have any trauma to your teeth to see a dentist as soon as possible. Remember to wear your mouthguard this footy season!

18.01.2022 What a difference 1 year makes Call us to find out more about the different options we offer to give you the smile you have always wanted.

17.01.2022 Cleaning between teeth Removing plaque between your teeth requires regular flossing at least once a day after brushing. Simply run a piece of floss (which resembles a cotton thread or string) between your teeth, using a slow, gentle sawing motion. Nowadays, dental tape a wide, flat ribbon of nylon that’s thinner than standard floss has become a popular option, especially for beginners, as it’s an easier way to get between the teeth.... If you’re not quite sure how to clean between your teeth, or if you’d like help deciding on which option is best for you, get some advice from your local Country Dental Gunnedah team.

17.01.2022 This patient had braces a few years ago and still wasn't happy with her smile. The solution was to have 8 hand crafted porcelain veneers made for her top teeth. This gave her the bright beautiful smile she always wanted

16.01.2022 Do you know the correct brushing technique? Brushing your teeth at least twice a day is essential after breakfast in the morning and before going to bed at night. Spend at least 2 minutes brushing, ensuring that all areas are cleaned the inside, outside, and biting surfaces of each tooth. The key is to aim the toothbrush bristles directly at the gum line, rather than the top of the tooth, as this is where plaque starts to form.... Gently move the toothbrush in a circular motion, which will clean away as much plaque from the gums as possible. A friendly reminder from the Country Dental Gunnedah team.

03.01.2022 In light of the current situation with COVID-19, the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee & the Australian Dental Association have recommended that dentists restrict services to emergency and urgent treatment only. We have made the decision to restrict non-essential treatment until further notice, in order to ensure the safety of our staff, patients and the community. If you have an upcoming appointment for non-essential treatment you will be contacted to reschedu...le. For patients that are wanting routine dental treatment we have a priority list of patients and you will be contacted once restrictions are lifted. We will still be seeing patients that are in pain or have an emergency, we can be contacted on 02 6742 3222 or [email protected] For patients who do attend our practice for an emergency appointment please note some of the changes we have implemented: - You will be asked a series of screening questions prior to your appointment - All magazines and entertainment have been removed from our waiting room - Appointments have been spaced out in order to minimise the amount of people in the practice at a time, if you arrive early for your appointment, we ask that you please wait in your car until your appointment time. This will allow the reception area to be wiped down after each patient and ensure you do not come into contact with someone unnecessarily. - We will ask you to use hand sanitiser when you enter the practice and you may be asked to use an antibacterial mouthwash - Unfortunately, during this time, we will not be accepting cash - Please attend appointments by yourself, unless you need a guardian or a carer We really appreciate the support & loyalty of all our patients and we thank you for being understanding during this difficult time. Please stay safe during this period.
