Common Myths of Gum Disease # 3

Having gum disease means I will lose my teeth
Not so! You don’t have to lose any of your teeth to gum disease if you practice good oral hygiene. That means brushing your teeth twice a day, cleaning between your teeth daily, eating a healthy diet, and scheduling regular dental visits. Even if you are diagnosed with gum disease, your dentist can design a treatment plan to help you keep it under control.

White Dental Fillings

No Mercury! No Metals! No Kidding!

White Dental Fillings - Tooth Colored Fillings Brownsburg INWe use only composite resin filling material for restorations. There are no metals in it, and it bonds very tightly to teeth. With the standard filling material, silver-mercury amalgam, the metal does not adhere well to teeth, which often allows decay to set in under the filling.

A composite resin filling can be made to match the shade of your tooth, making it aesthetically pleasing while also adding strength to the remaining tooth structure. Patients are pleased that these fillings are not visible, like the amalgam fillings are – a very noticeable dark plug in light-colored teeth.

Common Myths of Gum Disease # 2

I don't have cavities so I can't have gum disease
Being cavity-free doesn’t ensure you are in the clear where gum disease is concerned. That’s because gum disease is painless and many people have no idea they have it. Gums that bleed easily or are red, swollen or tender is a sign of gingivitis, the earliest stage of gum disease and the only stage that is reversible. When caught early gingivitis can usually be eliminated by a professional cleaning at the dental office, followed by daily brushing and flossing.

Dental Care for Seniors

Senior Dental Care is DifferentDental Care for Seniors Brownsburg IN

Your teeth and gums change over time, just as your body does. We are attentive to the dental concerns of seniors. Plaque may build up on the surface of teeth and lead to decay. Fillings may weaken and need to be replaced before cavities set in under fillings and go unnoticed until roots are affected. We check for gum infection and always alert our patients to the signs of this problem – red, swollen, or bleeding gums when brushing or flossing, and loose teeth. After years of caffeine and tobacco consumption, teeth lose their brilliance and need professional whitening to regain their original luster. Some medications reduce the necessary flow of saliva through the mouth, and we have products that will alleviate this problem. We emphasize good nutrition, daily hygiene, and regular check-ups to help your smile stay healthy and keep your natural teeth for a lifetime.

Common Myths of Gum Disease # 1

Gum disease is not that common
On the contrary, gum disease is extremely common. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, half of adults age 30 and older suffer from some form of gum disease. Gum disease, an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth, is caused by plaque, the sticky film of bacteria that is constantly forming on our teeth. Plaque that is not removed with thorough daily brushing and cleaning between teeth can eventually harden into calculus or tartar.

Kids Dentist

Children's Dentist Brownsburg IN
Choosing Your Child’s Dentist is Like Choosing Their Pediatrician

Children’s teeth are more susceptible to cavities than adults. They often do not brush properly, and they eat more often throughout the day. As a result, acids, bacteria, and plaque will build up. If teeth are already not as clean as they need to be, additional exposure to acids from eating (acid is formed in the mouth when eating) will speed up the rate of cavity development.

We encourage parents to oversee their children’s daily dental care until they can clean their teeth properly by themselves. We advise them how to make better nutritional choices to help care for their teeth and recommend an application of a fluoride varnish to mineralize their teeth to significantly reduce cavities.
