Dental Hygiene
Healthy Mouth And Teeth For Life Programme
Lambourn don’t do hygiene. We are fanatical about a ‘Healthy Mouth’ and its links to a healthy body.
Added to that we use special software so we can give clients a health risk assessment. It’s a traffic light system for gum disease, and decay, mouth cancer and teeth wear. Gum disease is a problem that does not cause pain in the beginning.
Eight Tell Tale Signs for the ‘Silent Disease’
Careful periodontal (gum) monitoring and excellent mouth hygiene is especially important for women. You may be noticing changes in your mouth during times of hormonal fluctuation.
Eight Tell Tale Signs for the ‘Silent Disease’
- Bleeding gums during brushing
- Red, swollen or tender gums
- Gums that have pulled away from the teeth
- Persistent bad breath
- Pus between the teeth and gums
- Loose or separating teeth
- A change in the way your teeth fit together when you bite
- A change in the fit of your dentures
To help ensure good mouth (and overall) health, be sure to:
- See a dental professional for cleaning at least twice a year.
- See your dentist if you notice problems with your gum tissue.
Please keep your dental professionals informed about any medications you are taking and any changes in your health history. Brush and floss properly every day. Review your techniques with a dental professional.
