Major Oral Health Problems
1) Plaque: Mostly caused due to lack of daily brushing and flossing, plaque occurs on the teeth surface and below the gum-lines resulting into a bacterial formation which slowly affects the gum and the tooth’s external enamel. Gum disease, if not treated on time, could damage the overall structure of the tooth and its surrounding tissues that leaves no option other than removing the teeth from its root.
2) Gum Disease: Many people remain unaware of this disease despite its presence. One reason for this might be because gum disease does not show any painful symptoms. Yet, a patient could notice red and bulged gum that bleeds during brushing or flossing. If the symptoms remain untreated, very soon it can take the shape of gum disease.
3) Mouth Ulcers: We all suffer from this problem at one stage of life. It is mostly caused due to hard brushing, acidic food intake, and lack of vitamins. Mouth ulcers can be cured with simple remedies like switching over soft brush, a healthy diet, good sleep, and less acidic food intake.
4) Dental Cavities: Sounds familiar? Yes, dental cavities are a nightmare for parents when their children cannot put their paws off chocolates and candies. But, the adults are not any better than this. High intake of caffeine, alcohol, and sugary items could lead to dental cavities. Make sure you rinse your mouth thoroughly after consuming sugary items.
