Hoy te contamos algunas cosas que quizÑs no sabías acerca del mal aliento 🀒

▢️ El tratamiento para el mal aliento varia en funciΓ³n de la causa del mismo. Si tu mal aliento se debe a un problema no diagnosticado, tu dentista te derivarΓ‘ a un mΓ©dico de cabecera.

▢️ Los enjuagues bucales y dentΓ­fricos te ayudarΓ‘n a controlar la acumulaciΓ³n de placa bacteriana.

▢️ Las enfermedades relacionadas con las encΓ­as pueden tener relaciΓ³n directa con el mal aliento, por lo que es posible que seas derivado a un periodoncista.
Ponte en contacto con nosotros y evaluaremos tu situaciΓ³n de forma personalizada.

ΒΏEstΓ‘s embarazada y no sabes si es prudente acudir al dentista? πŸ€”

Por lo general, la mejor opciΓ³n es siempre realizar tus tratamientos dentales antes o despuΓ©s de tu embarazo, pero si tienes una urgencia por dolor y necesitas acudir a tu dentista, podrΓ‘s hacerlo sin problemas. πŸ‘‡

Puedes realizar extracciones, curetajes, endodoncias o limpiezas dentales para evitar problemas graves o provenir infecciones.

Recuerda siempre consultar estas cuestiones con tu mΓ©dico o dentista de confianza.

Tune in to our final podcast for the year, 'Dental Central Wrapped'. https://bit.ly/3FGfuTR.

It’s been another big year as the team at Dental Central, Emily and Matt (with the help of Frankie) look back at some highlights, including dental school graduations, a record breaking ADAVB Convention & Exhibition, their favourite podcast episodes and thoughts about what 2023 might bring.

A big thanks to all our listeners, who have taken us to more than 6400 downloads since we first launched in 2021. We hope everyone has a restful break and we look forward to reconnecting in 2023.

Full house for our itisectionusa study club meeting last directed by our own Dr. Gheddaf Dam and the implant legend hpweber2 last evening πŸ™ŒπŸΌ Dr Kim our periodontist was also in attendance πŸ˜ƒ

Had a wonderful overview of the literature regarding the need and timing of soft tissue grafting around dental implants by the talented samar_shake πŸ‘ŒπŸΌIt is important for implant specialists and general clinicians to understand the difference between different soft tissue (gum) grafts, as well as have the fundamental knowledge of treatment planning implant cases that require soft tissue grafting, in order to determine weather to graft or not to graft areas that have or require #dental #implants. Our all time goal is to widen our knowledge and our experience to better serve our patients and make the best choices for/with them πŸŒ·πŸŽ‰

This week, I've been noticing lots of frenzy & stress at school as many D4's are looking for patients for their licensure exam (#CDCA) this weekend. It is hitting me that many of my beloved D20s are graduating in just a few months, and that soon it will be my turn to go through this final stage. I thinkΒ #sweetsΒ &Β #coffeeΒ are my biggest destressors but I know this is not a sustainable method. (Also I've been telling myΒ #patientsΒ to reduce snacking but lo behold, I'm one of zee biggestΒ #sweettooth 🍰🍬 lol). I need moreΒ #prayers,Β #bibleverses, &Β #deepbreathsΒ to ask God for peace and comfort in my heart. I wish all the fourth years atΒ #TUSDMΒ best of luck on their CDCA and if you know anyone with good class 2 &3 cavities and/or scaling & root planing, plz lemme know asap!! Their cost of treatment will be covered and many 4th years will be soΒ #joyfulΒ to have them this weekend haha πŸ˜†πŸ€©

Any tips for successful dental license exam day (CDCA & WREB)? For those who went thru it and survived, how did it go for you?
