Fissure Sealants

BENEFITS OF FISSURE SEALANTS

benefits of Fissure SealantsFissure Sealants

What is a Fissure sealant?

Fissure sealants are the thin coating of white or clear dental materials applied to the fissures or pits of teeth. They are applied to the chewing areas of the molar teeth. These sealants provide good protection from the tooth decay by keeping food and plaque out of the groves. Your dentist will examine your teeth and let you know if you need fissure sealants or not?

ALWAYS WANTED A WHITER BRIGHTER SMILE?

Take home whitening kits only for $250

Teeth whitening is a safe procedure that can lighten stained or discoloured teeth.

Tobacco, coffee, tea, alcohol, food additives, some developmental blemishes and natural aging all contribute to the discolouring and yellowing of teeth.

While a professional dental clean can remove some staining, Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that can provide patients with great results that whiten the colour of teeth which have discoloured over time. Teeth whitening, if maintained correctly, can leave you with results that last. As teeth whitening agents have varying levels of peroxide in them, all procedures should only be carried out by qualified dentists who use a clinically proven cosmetic dental treatment.

Why flossing your teeth is important?

FLOSSING YOUR TEETH IS IMORTANT!

It is important to floss at least once a day because food and bacterial plaque can settle in between your teeth which can cause tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath (Halitosis). Even if your teeth look clean on the surface after brushing, plaque/tartar can build up in-between your teeth and can cause gingivitis which can lead to periodontal disease later in life. If you are not flossing regularly your gums are more likely to bleed.

Flossing your teeth

Next time, when you visit your Dentist for your (6 monthly Check ups) ask them to show you how to floss properly.

  • Make flossing part of your oral hygiene regime.
  • You should be flossing at least once a day.
  • Ask your dentist to demonstrate the correct flossing technique. Flossing Instructions
  • Ask your dentist if inter-dental aids will complement your flossing.
  • Your children should start flossing too, start as soon as your child has two teeth that touch.

What is the best time to clean between your teeth- before or after brushing?

It does not matter when you do it. Choose a time of the day when you can spare a couple of minutes for flossing. Brushing your teeth with a fluoride toothpaste and then flossing is what our dentists recommend. Children need to clean between their teeth too, start as soon as your child has two teeth that touch. Because cleaning between teeth demands more manual dexterity than very young children have, children are not usually able to do a thorough job on their own until age 10 or 11

Regular Dental Checkups Indooroopilly

REGULAR DENTAL CHECKUPS AT YOUR INDOOROOPILLY DENTIST

What happens at your Regular dental checkup visit?Regular dental checkups indooroopilly

During your thorough dental check-up appointment at Heritage Dental Group in Indooroopilly, our dentist will evaluate the health of your gums, perform a head and neck examination (to look for anything out of the ordinary). Dentist will also examine your mouth for any indications of gum disease, oral cancer, diabetes or vitamin deficiencies. Don’t be surprised if dentist examines your face, bite, saliva and movement of your lower jaw joints (TMJs). Our experienced dentist will then clean your teeth and stress the importance of you maintaining good oral hygiene at home between visits. Flossing advice and importance.

While cleaning your teeth, the dentist will pay special attention to the plaque and tartar as plaque and tartar can build up in a very short time in the absence of good oral hygiene between visits. If not removed, soft plaque can harden on the teeth and irritate the gum tissue. If not treated, plaque can lead to gum disease.

Your Regular Dental check-up

  • Thorough Check-up (including your neck, jaw and mouth)
  • X-rays to check the area in between the teeth.
  • Scale and Clean (removing tarter/plaque build-up and polish your teeth)
  • discussing your oral health care concerns
          

Regular dental visits are important as they help to keep your teeth and gums healthy and help detect any problems right at the start. You should have a regular dental visit (takes 30-40 minutes) at least twice a year. Our dentist is available for after hour appointments and we are just up the road from the Indooroopilly Shopping Centre on Moggill Rd across the road from Indooroopilly State School. See one of our gentle dentists in Indooroopilly.
