Dental Tips & Information -- Did you know???
  • Taking bites that are too big to chew could be bad for your jaw and teeth. According to the Academy of General Dentistry, people with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) are at particular risk because the condition restricts the range of acceptable bite size.
  • The gum you chew may help make your teeth healthier. The milk-based ingredient, recaldent is said to coat the teeth with calcium and phosphate. This substance helps accelerate the process whereby molecules contained in saliva enable teeth to slowly repair themselves. Another ingredient that is found in some chewing gum is xylitol. This natural sweetner, processed from white birch trees, inhibits the growth of plaque bacteria.
  • Water neutralizes acids left in your mouth after a meal and reduces bacteria by 30 percent. If you can't brush your teeth after eating, at least be sure you rinse your mouth with water.
  • There is evidence that the toothbrush's history dates back to prehistoric times with cave people using sticks and twigs to clean their teeth.
  • There is a possible link between periodontal disease, cardiovascular disease and other health conditions. The mouth is said to be a pathway to the body and evidence reveals that there exists a link between gum disease and heart disease as well as diabetes and poor nutrition.
