Do fillings strengthen teeth?

Dental fillings have been used to restore decayed or fractured teeth for many hundreds of years. Although the process of dental fillings has remained almost the same throughout, the fillings used have changed quite a bit. Due to the improvements in dentistry, today's filling materials have been greatly improved.  Today's fillings are mercury-free, tooth-colored composite fillings. These filings are made up of durable resin and porcelain materials. These fillings bond to the tooth structure effectively while providing added strength to the tooth.  Call Expert Dental Care at 99415-11444 to know more about laser filling of teeth cost in India and laser gum treatment cost in India .   Visit us at https://www.expertdental.in/ to know more about our dental clinic in Kilpauk .

So how many wisdom teeth can be removed at a time? Removing your wisdom teeth individually requires repeated anesthesia and it prolongs the healing time too. Can you remove all the 4 wisdom teeth at the same time?

Should your mix mouth wash with water?

A complete routine of your daily dental hygiene should include twice-a-day brushing and flossing. While the before-mentioned steps are the most important ones, oral rinses with mouth wash have to be added to your dental hygiene routine. Mouthwashes include a variety of ingredients that fight the bacteria in our mouth. Oral rinses can also help in fighting bad breath. It is always recommended to use the mouthwashes as instructed by your dentist or by the label on the back of the bottle. Adding water and diluting the mouthwash can reduce the effectiveness of the mouth wash.

Are silver fillings still used?

Dental Filling is a method used to restore teeth that are damaged by tooth decay. In this method, the decayed portion of the tooth is removed and is cleaned. The cleaned-out cavity is then filled with a filling material. The filling material used for filling includes gold, porcelain, composite resin (tooth-colored fillings), and Amalgam fillings. Amalgam fillings are otherwise known as silver fillings. Amalgam fillings are a mixture of silver, mercury, tin, and copper. Amalgam fillings or silver fillings which have been in use since 1895 have become obsolete and out of use. The more common materials that are in use these days are composite fillings. Composite fillings are tooth-colored and hence they blend with our teeth more naturally. The flexibility of composite filling resin reduces the amount of tooth portion that needs to be drilled.

Know the Gum surgery

The bone and gum tissue in our mouth ideally should have a snug fit with our teeth. In the event of some gum disease, the bone and gum tissue around our teeth get destroyed and pockets begin to develop. These pockets are unwanted spaces between our teeth and gum tissue. Over time, these pockets enlarge and allow more bacteria to accumulate and damage the gum. This can lead to further bone and gum tissue loss and eventual tooth loss. Osseous surgery is a surgery that might be required when the bone tissue that supports your teeth has been destroyed. Osseous surgery is generally recommended for people who have not responded positively with non-surgical treatment such as scaling and root planing. In this surgery, the infected portion of your gum tissue will be trimmed away to halt the progression of the infection.

Another factor to consider is that each person’s root canal structure is different from the other. Although root canal treatment is being practiced successfully for many years, the various root canal structures in different people till date does not stop giving surprises to the dentist.
