Dentures Of The Future May Be Real Teeth

Dentures Of The Future May Be Real Teeth

By AMANDA ONION August 30, 2018 www.abcnews.go.com In 1781, the soon-to-be U.S. president George Washington wrote to his doctor requesting “a pair of pincers to fasten the wire of my teeth.” His “teeth” were false and had been hand-carved from hippopotamus ivory and cow’s teeth, then fastened to his mouth with a set of metal springs. Dentures have, of course, come a long way since then. And new research promises access soon to something far more advanced than hippopotamus choppers — real human teeth, grown in laboratory dishes.  Scientists also hope that by locating the right biological triggers, people may one day be able to grow several sets of teeth instead of just two — much like the way sharks, rodents or stingrays grow several generations of teeth to...

What Is The Most Misunderstood Thing About Brushing Your Teeth?

What Is The Most Misunderstood Thing About Brushing Your Teeth?

Here are the truths that need to be better understood: We only have to brush twice daily to reduce the risk of decay. Brushing more frequently does not help any more. If we brush after breakfast, we have to wait 20 to 30 minutes after eating to allow remineralization to occur and the pH of the oral cavity to return to normal otherwise we will be brushing away demineralized enamel that will be lost forever We are not trying to remove all dental plaque or kill all dental bacteria. We are simply disrupting its growth and maturation. If our toothpaste does not have fluoride in it, it is not proven by the preponderance of evidence to be beneficial in lowering our risk of decay. Fluoridated toothpaste is proven. Over and over. We only need to brush for two minutes....

Dental Health And Bad Breath

Dental Health And Bad Breath

Article from WEBmd.com Bad breath, medically called halitosis, can result from poor dental health habits and may be a sign of other health problems. Bad breath can also be made worse by the types of foods you eat and other unhealthy lifestyle habits. How Does What You Eat Affect Breath? Basically, all the food eaten begins to be broken down in your mouth.  If you eat foods with strong odors (such as garlic or onions), brushing and flossing — even mouthwash — merely covers up the odor temporarily. The odor will not go away completely until the foods have passed through your body. Why Do Poor Habits Cause Bad Breath?    If you don’t brush and floss teeth daily, food particles can remain in your mouth, promoting bacterial growth between teeth,...
