DIY Personal Care Products For Dental Treatments

By Kimberly Myers


It is important to maintain a good care routine using DIY personal care products to avoid developing dental conditions like the periodontal disease. This gum disease is more prominent in the elderly people than it is in young people. This is because the human immune system deteriorates as a person gets older.

The periodontal disease which is commonly known as the gum disease is caused by excessive plaque and tartar that is built up on teeth. The build-up mainly consists of un-brushed food particles. If left untreated, the plaque and tartar attack the jaw and the support structure. This leads to fangs becoming loose or at worst falling out.

Bacteria multiply more quickly in warm and humid places. This makes the mouth a perfect place for it to breed. Practicing good care routine like brushing teeth or flossing are the ways used to remove the bacteria and prevent the building up of tartar.

Visiting the dentist on a regular basis to get cleaned up reduces many dental conditions. Periodontal disease can develop into gingivitis if left untreated. At this stage, the gums would be bleeding, swollen and you will be having difficulties when chewing. However, there would still be a chance of recovery at this stage if proper care routine is immediately done and maintained.

If gingivitis is left untreated, it can develop into periodontite. This means the inflammation all around the tooth. Here gums retrieve away from the molars and incisors and create spaces that are called pockets. These pockets then become infected. As the plaque can spread then grows under the gum line, the immune system attaches bacteria. In this case, there would be excessive bacterial toxins in the infected area. When the bodys natural response to fight infection and bacterial toxins combine, they start to break inside the bone and the support structure. If left untreated the teeth eventually get loose and are removed.

There are various causes of gum disease which like smoking, hormonal changes and other illnesses. Hormones are known to make gums too sensitive. Sensitive gums are easily affected by bacteria that cause gingivitis. If neglected, gingivitis then develops into gum disease. There are some illnesses that affect some body parts more including gums. Illnesses like diabetes, AIDS, and cancer are known to affect gums. In some cases, gingivitis is hereditary.

Medication also causes gum inflammations. This happens in two ways. Firstly, medication promotes overgrowth of gum tissue. This excessive gum tissue tends to get stuck on molars and incisors if good charge routine is not practiced. If left for a long time, it starts to build up into plaque and tartar. Also, some medication side effects include dry mouth. In this case, there will not be enough saliva to help protect the mouth from potential bacterial infections.

It is recommended that you visit a dentist should you feel symptoms of oral disease. The signs and symptoms include bad breath, red swollen gums tender and bleeding gums, loose molars and incisors, painful chewing, elusive gums or big appearing fangs. Having regular dentist visits and proper good treatment routine will help control the symptoms and eventually have healthy gums.
