Do your gums bleed from time to time after brushing your teeth? Do you sometimes decry reddened gums? Generally, both happens from time to time and does not necessarily have to be a sign of a problem. In some cases, however, one or both symptoms may be indicators of a gum inflammation that may lead to gum line recession. This condition can increase the sensitivity of teeth to cold and hot foods and drinks significantly and thereby reduce the quality of life of a suffering patient. Pretty concerning, right? Let’s find out more about this then.

Do you sometimes feel off after brushing your teeth? Do you suffer from allergy symptoms?

According to recent surveys, people in the German-speaking realm consume roughly 100g of sugar per day and even more, when sugary drinks are taken into account.

Excessive sugar consumption can encourage the development of sugar addiction, as part of which the body craves sugar like a drug. What exactly causes this addiction and how can one prevent or combat it? Let’s find out more!

Alzheimer’s is a disease that can, among other things, lead to memory loss, disorientation, and personality changes and is a scary specter for many people at the age of 65 or above. This neuro-degenerative disease manifests in the form of constantly worsening dementia and can, as of today, not be cured. Recent studies have shown that some fairly mundane and easy-to-implement measures, such as an active lifestyle, a healthy diet, and even thorough dental care can significantly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
Read Post The cleaning powers of saliva
Added on 15.06.2019
As all of you probably know, bacterial plaques are harmful for one’s teeth and for the gums because they transform food (and especially sugar) into acids, which, in turn, then attack the dental enamel. On top of that, several other toxic byproducts of a person’s typical metabolism also contribute to the occurrence of gum diseases. Saliva can offer a so-called helping hand and can boost self-cleaning processes inside the oral cavity. What is particularly important is the fact that a sufficiently high saliva production remineralizes dental enamel in areas that are at high risk of tooth decay. Interested yet? If so, let’s read on.
Read Post Gum bleeding as a warning signal
Added on 27.05.2019
Surely, we all know this: after thoroughly brushing our teeth, we rinse out our mouths and suddenly discover a reddish discoloring in the rinsing water while it slowly but certainly makes its way towards the drain in a circular fashion. After a closer examination of the mouth, we determine that the source of this reddish discoloring is our irritated gum line and we quickly dismiss the event as a triviality. In many cases, this is not the best course of action since bleeding gums (especially those that keep bleeding over several days) are a definitive warning signal for a potentially more serious problem such as an inflammation inside the mouth.

A smile can be worth and can express more than any friendly word and is therefore one of our most effective means of communication.

Many of us have become used to reaching for an energy drink after a long day (or on the heels of a short night) to squeeze a few more productive hours out of one's body. Though these energy drinks work quite well temporarily, as their name implies, more and more reports about their potentially destructive effect on dental enamel have started surfacing. But how much of these horror stories is actually true? Let's find out!

Added on 03.03.2019
Haven't we all been in this situation before: You wake up, the sun is shining brightly through the window, you pleasurably stretch one last time before getting up and ... you suddenly notice a weird taste in your mouth.
