  3. Dental Diseases and ProblemsContinued • Canker Sores-ashallow, painful, open sore in the mouth. They usually appear on the inner surface of the cheeks and lips, soft palate, the base of the gums and on or under the tongue. Canker sores can be very painful and they can make eating and talking uncomfortable. • Gingivitis- the inflammation of the gums characterized by redness, swelling, and sometimes bleeding during brushing. • Periodontitis-Plaque bacteria start to penetrate between the teeth and gums. The environment becomes suitable for the establishment of anaerobic bacteria under the receding gums. Gingival pockets are formed below the gum line • Bruxism -the medical term for teeth grinding and teeth clenching, and involves any type of forceful contact between the teeth.  • Dental Abscess-a painful infection characterized by a collection of pus at the root of a tooth or at the area between the gums and a tooth.  • Root Canal Treatment-involves the removal of the infected pulp tissues and nerve of the tooth, the cleaning and shaping of the pulp chamber and root canals, and finally the filling and sealing of the tooth. • Temporomandibular Joint Disorder or TMJ -involve the jaw, jaw joint and surrounding facial muscles that control chewing and movement of the jaw, and they can result in acute or chronic facial pain.

  5. My Teeth There are four different types of teeth in the mouth of an adult human. The complete number of teeth an adult person has is 32 teeth. Main Menu Continue Molars, Premolars, Canines, and Incisors

  6. Different Types of Teeth • INCISORS or Cutting teeth- The 8 incisors are the very front human teeth with rather flat surfaces, a straight sharp horizontal edge for cutting and biting the food and one long, single, conical root. • CANINE teeth- The 4 canine teeth are very strong, pointed corner teeth for tearing and shredding, placed laterally to each lateral incisor. They are larger and stronger than the incisors.  Sometimes called eyeteeth. • PREMOLARS or Bicuspid teeth- The 8 premolars, used for the chewing of the food, are placed lateral to and behind the canine teeth, with a flat upper surface and 1-2 roots. Their crown has two pyramidal eminences or cusps. • MOLARS or Molar teeth- The 12 molars are the back human teeth. Molar teeth have a much different tooth morphology with large and flat upper surface and 2-4 roots. Molars is the one of types of teeth with the largest of the permanent teeth, used for the final chewing and grinding of the food before swallowing Main Menu

  7. Brushing My Teeth Correctly 1. Place your toothbrush next to the teeth so that it rests on the gum line (the point where the teeth and the gums meet) ,forming a 45 degrees angle against teeth and gums. 2. Move the toothbrush from the gums towards the edge of teeth to move the dental plaque away from the gum line 3. Move the brush back and forth gently in short (1½ tooth wide) strokes. 4. After brushing, one by one tooth, all the outer teeth surfaces do the same for the inner surfaces. 5. Brush the chewing surfaces of the teeth with horizontal moves. 6. Spit out the toothpaste and rinse your mouth with water or mouthwash. 7. During tooth brushing give special attention to the area of the gum line where gum disease starts and to the back molars where it is easier for bacteria to hide. Main Menu Continue

  10. How to Floss Properly • Starting with about 18 inches of floss, wind most of the floss around each middle finger, leaving an inch or two of floss to work with • Holding the floss tautly between your thumbs and index fingers, slide it gently up-and-down between your teeth • Gently curve the floss around the base of each tooth, making sure you go beneath the gum line. Never snap or force the floss, as this may cut or bruise delicate gum tissue • Use clean sections of floss as you move from tooth to tooth • To remove the floss, use the same back-and-forth motion to bring the floss up and away from the teeth Main Menu Continue
