The Key to Your Heart can be in relation to your Oral Health. ♥️🦷
▪️Gum disease is known to be associated with an increased risk to heart disease.
▪️Poor oral health increases the risk of bad bacteria entering our bloodstream which ultimately can effect our heart valves.
▪️It’s important to keep our oral health a priority which in turn can reduce risks of heart disease.

Is it time to change out your toothbrush or toothbrush head? ⏰🪥
We should be changing out our toothbrushes or toothbrush heads every 3-4months.
Sometimes even sooner, especially if we’ve been sick.
🙅Our brushes should never look and feel like they could scrub tiles. Change them out when the bristles start to lose their stiffness and/or signs of wear & tear.

Need help selecting the right toothbrush? 😅
There is no right or wrong toothbrush as long as you are brushing and doing so effectively! 😎😏

There are pros & cons to both electric & manual toothbrushes.
🦷One may be more recommended over the other dependent on each our own personal needs.
🦷 Double check with your oral health professionals. This ensures we are doing what is best for our own personal oral health.
🦷Our oral health professionals may even recommend some additional tools to help get to those hard to reach areas and/or appliances.

Jaw Pain 🤕
It can be debilitating by affecting our ability to eat, speak, and/or just day to day activities because of the subsequent symptoms (headaches/muscle soreness).
Jaw pain can be brought on by:
▪️Stress
▪️Improper alignment of bite/teeth
▪️Clenching or grinding
▪️Ear or Sinus problems
▪️and more.

🤗The good news is, there are different treatment plan options. Sometimes one solution works, but sometimes combination therapy is the best treatment plan.
For example: an appliance & physio therapy.
Some different treatment plan options are:
🦷Adjusting the bite
🦷Aligning teeth - Orthodontics
🦷Appliances (orthotic, nightguard, etc.)
🦷Bite reconstruction with crowns and/or bridges
🦷Physio Therapy

👨🏻‍⚕️Your dental professionals will be able to discuss your jaw pain & recommend the best treatment plan options for your specific needs.

Smokers have a significantly greater risk to develop gum disease vs a nonsmoker. New research is also showing those who vape are at greater risk too.
🦷Gum disease not only affects the gum tissues, but bone structure supporting our teeth.
🦷Because smoking, including the aerosols generated by vapes, weakens our body’s immune system, it makes it harder to fight off gum infection & it’s harder for the gums to heal once damaged.
🦷Signs & Symptoms of Gum Disease are swelling, redness, bleeding, and mobility of our teeth.
With this said, it’s extra important for smokers to maintain their oral health.
Some helpful tips are:
▫️brushing 2x daily for a minimum of 2minutes
▫️flossing between teeth down below the gumline
▫️visiting dental professionals regularly
▫️quit smoking

Happy Tip 🦷sday! 🤩

We call it the beer bottle injury, but it can also be referred to as a chipped or cracked tooth from a beer bottle.
You know what we mean: those teeth that get knocked by a beer bottle or cracked from opening the cap with our teeth 😖…
USING OUR TEETH FOR ANYTHING BUT CHEWING CAN BE DANGEROUS. 🤕🙅🏽‍♀️
🦷Please try to avoid using your teeth to crack things open. When you use your teeth to crack things open, you risk cracking or breaking your teeth.
🧰Use the appropriate tools to open those bottles, cans, etc.
🚨If you do happen to experience a dental emergency, make sure to contact your dental professionals as soon as possible.
