Periodontal Disease?
Sunday, November 15th, 2009 Dental by Anthem Arizona Dentist
Everytime I have my teeth cleaned, my gums bleed ALOT. I have healthy teeth (I have never even had a cavity), but my mother has Periodontal disease, a type of gum disease that is causing her teeth and gums to become infected and abscessed. Could this be the start of Periodontal disease? Is Periodontal disease genetic?

Dental Care – Affordable Dental Care Important to Your Body
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009 An Anthem Dentist's Blog by Anthem Arizona Dentist
Hello everyone!
Published statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that 27% of children and 29% of adults are living with untreated cavities. Many know they have these cavities, but because they are lacking affordable dental care coverage, they are left untreated. This is a very unhealthy practice. Whether you have full coverage dental insurance or a discount dental plan, you need dental care as a part of your overall health regimen. Healthy teeth reflect a healthy body. Unhealthy teeth reflect an unhealthy body.
According to the American Dental Association (ADA), researchers have found that periodontitis (the gum disease that can cause tooth loss) is associated with stroke, cardiovascular disease, and bacterial pneumonia. Other reports show an unhealthy mouth may be linked to diabetes. Without regular dental care including cleanings and check-ups, small cavities or painful teeth often lead to tooth and gum decay resulting in not only tooth loss, but these much more serious conditions.
It is bad enough that you will lose your teeth if you do not seek dental care, but you may also be affecting your brain, heart, and immune system. Mark Feldman, the president of the ADA states that “so many Americans still lack access to basic oral care” and calls it a “disgrace”. Feldman also states that there is a need to “get better dental care to the millions of Americans who don’t receive it.”
Dental care is not a luxury. It is a necessity. I took a friend to the dentist a few weeks ago to get a wisdom tooth pulled. The oral surgeon pulled the tooth and found the culprit that caused the tooth to rot… a popcorn hull. Both my friend and I were astounded that something so small and seemingly insignificant could cause tooth loss. Then I asked her when the last time she went to the dentist was. Her response: “Ten years ago, because I didn’t think I could get an affordable dental plan.” Enough said.

Dental Care – Ayurveda Concept
Sunday, September 20th, 2009 An Anthem Dentist's Blog by Anthem Arizona Dentist
Clean and shining teeth, healthy gums and pleasant breath all contribute to a beautiful smile. Ayurveda believes in the three doshas vaata, pitta and kapha, the mouth is the seat of the kapha dosha. Hence, care must be taken not to vitiate the kapha dosha. Problems with the kapha dosha lead to several dental problems. Many methods are known to Ayurveda to maintain healthy teeth.
Causes of Dental Problems
· Blocking of food particles
· Excessive tartar formation, bad breath, inflammation and ulceration of gums, bleeding from gums
· Toothache due following reasons:
· Dental cavities/decay, consumption of soft drinks, refined carbohydrates, and sugar. Use of too cold or too hot foods/drinks, use of tobacco, khaini, gutka, betal. Smoking, pricking of toothpicks or other such modes to remove trapped food particles within tooth-gaps. Trauma, Accident/Fracture of Jaw-bone, lack of dental hygiene/care.
General Dental Care
· Brush at least twice a day; Vitamin C prevents decay and loosening of the teeth, dental caries, toothache, and bleeding of the gums. Strawberries, tomatoes and amalaki contain good vitamin C content; these can be directly applied on the teeth. Vitamin C helps in removing the plaque on the teeth and makes them whiter Green vegetables; fruits like oranges, lemon, and grapes pomegranates should be included in diet and drink lots of water. It is vital to restrict one’s sugar intake, and to make sure that the diet includes plenty of raw vegetables and whole-wheat bread.
· Use of til, cinnamon and clove oil helps to prevent toothache, sore throat and bad breath. Rinsing mouth with mint leaves or chewing parsley leaves can improve the quality of teeth. A clove of garlic with rock salt will relieve the pain. It will also make teeth strong and fit.
· A paste of the bark of bay berry prepared with vinegar helps in the strengthening of gums. Useful Herbs for Whitening of Teeth are Babul, Banyan, Holy Basil, Margosa; neem twigs of these can be used. Mixture of salt with finely powdered rind of lime helps preventing yellowing of teeth.
