Healthy teeth and gums without gum recession
Do your gums bleed from time to time after brushing your teeth? Do you sometimes decry reddened gums? Generally, both happens from time to time and does not necessarily have to be a sign of a problem. In some cases, however, one or both symptoms may be indicators of a gum inflammation that may lead to gum line recession. This condition can increase the sensitivity of teeth to cold and hot foods and drinks significantly and thereby reduce the quality of life of a suffering patient. Pretty concerning, right? Let’s find out more about this then.

Several cubes of sugar
According to recent surveys, people in the German-speaking realm consume roughly 100g of sugar per day and even more, when sugary drinks are taken into account. Nowadays, many of us try to reduce their sugar consumption, given that it can lead to unwanted consequences like obesity, caries, and diabetes.

What exactly causes this addiction and how can one prevent or combat it? Let’s find out more!

Dental care to cure Alzheimer’s disease?

Added on 26.06.2019

A scrabble game board
Alzheimer’s is a disease that can, among other things, lead to memory loss, disorientation, and personality changes and is a scary specter for many people at the age of 65 or above. This neuro-degenerative disease manifests in the form of constantly worsening dementia and can, as of today, not be cured. Recent studies have shown that some fairly mundane and easy-to-implement measures, such as an active lifestyle, a healthy diet, and even thorough dental care can significantly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

The cleaning powers of saliva

Added on 15.06.2019

As all of you probably know, bacterial plaques are harmful for one’s teeth and for the gums because they transform food (and especially sugar) into acids, which, in turn, then attack the dental enamel. On top of that, several other toxic byproducts of a person’s typical metabolism also contribute to the occurrence of gum diseases. Saliva can offer a so-called helping hand and can boost self-cleaning processes inside the oral cavity. What is particularly important is the fact that a sufficiently high saliva production remineralizes dental enamel in areas that are at high risk of tooth decay. Interested yet? If so, let’s read on.

Gum bleeding as a warning signal

Added on 27.05.2019

A child has bleeding gums
Surely, we all know this: after thoroughly brushing our teeth, we rinse out our mouths and suddenly discover a reddish discoloring in the rinsing water while it slowly but certainly makes its way towards the drain in a circular fashion. After a closer examination of the mouth, we determine that the source of this reddish discoloring is our irritated gum line and we quickly dismiss the event as a triviality. In many cases, this is not the best course of action since bleeding gums (especially those that keep bleeding over several days) are a definitive warning signal for a potentially more serious problem such as an inflammation inside the mouth.

Have you ever heard of a "designed" smile? Do you believe it is possible for a dentist to map out your future smile on a computer screen? Does this sound too much like science fiction to you?

Handshake between man and machine
In more and more industries, such as for example the automotive industry or the metal construction industry, an increasing number of machines - or robots - are put to use. In the banking sector, there is even reference of so-called "robo calls". Since the pace of global technological development is increasingly gaining steam, robots are entering more and more previously human-dominated professions including, probably unsurprisingly, dentistry. But how far along is the field of robotics as it relates to dentistry and what kinds of successes have been achieved to date? Let's find out more!
