Periodontal Plastic Procedures

What is periodontal disease?

Periodontal literally means "around the tooth".,hence periodontal disease refers to a chronic bacteria infection of the gums and bone supporting the teeth. It can affect one tooth or several teeth and if left untreated, may lead to tooth loss.

The most common form of periodontal disease include gingivitis and periodontitis. In the early stages, only the gums are infected (gingivitis). Later, it spreads to the bone surrounding the tooth and other supporting tissues. Finally the tooth becomes loose and may fall out. Periodontal disease can affect persons of any age.

What are the common signs and symptoms of periodontal disease?

You may have periodontal disease if you have:

Bleeding gums when brushing
Red, swollen,puffy-looking or tender gums
Abscesses on the gum
Pus secreting from between the teeth and gums
Shaky teeth
Teeth appearing to drift apart from its original position
Receeding gumline (gum recession)
Persistent bad breath
Vague discomfort or dull-ache of gums and teeth

You may still have gum disease and not have any of the above signs and symptoms as most people do not experience any pain with the gum infection.

What causes periodontal disease?

The main cause of periodontal disease is bacterial plaque. Our mouths are full of bacteria. These bacteria, along with salivary proteins, constantly form a sticky colourless "plaque" on teeth. Brushing and flossing help prevent plaque accumulation. Plaque that is not removed can harden and form bacteria-harbouring calculus or "tartar" over time. Calculus cannot be removed by daily toothbrushing and only a professional cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist can remove it.

Gingivitis

The longer plaque and calculus stay on teeth, the more harmful they become. Bacterial plaque causes inflammation of the gums, which is called "gingivitis." The gums become red and puffy, bleeding easily. Gingivitis is a mild form of periodontal disease that can usually be reversed with daily brushing and flossing, and regular scaling by a dentist or a dental hygienist.

Periodontitis

If gingivitis is not untreated, it can progress to "periodontitis". The gums start to pull away from the teeth and are filled with plaque and become infected. As the plaque spreads and grows beneath the gum line, the body's immune system fights the bacteria. Bacterial toxins and the body's enzymes fighting the infection actually starts to break down the bone and connective tissue that hold teeth in place.

If left untreated, the bones, gums and connective tissue are destroyed. The teeth may eventually become loose and have to be removed. Periodontitis can range from mild to moderate to even severe forms.

Herbal medicine

Overview:

What is herbal medicine?

Herbal medicine -- also called botanical medicine or phytomedicine -- refers to using a plant's seeds, berries, roots, leaves, bark, or flowers for medicinal purposes. Herbalism has a long tradition of use outside of conventional medicine. It is becoming more mainstream as improvements in analysis and quality control along with advances in clinical research show the value of herbal medicine in the treating and preventing disease.

What is the history of herbal medicine?

Plants had been used for medicinal purposes long before recorded history. Ancient Chinese and Egyptian papyrus writings describe medicinal uses for plants as early as 3,000 BC. Indigenous cultures (such as African and Native American) used herbs in their healing rituals, while others developed traditional medical systems (such as Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine) in which herbal therapies were used. Researchers found that people in different parts of the world tended to use the same or similar plants for the same purposes.

In the early 19th century, when chemical analysis first became available, scientists began to extract and modify the active ingredients from plants. Later, chemists began making their own version of plant compounds and, over time, the use of herbal medicines declined in favor of drugs. Almost one fourth of pharmaceutical drugs are derived from botanicals.

Recently, the World Health Organization estimated that 80% of people worldwide rely on herbal medicines for some part of their primary health care. In Germany, about 600 - 700 plant based medicines are available and are prescribed by some 70% of German physicians. In the past 20 years in the United States, public dissatisfaction with the cost of prescription medications, combined with an interest in returning to natural or organic remedies, has led to an increase in herbal medicine use.

How do herbs work?

In many cases, scientists aren' t sure what specific ingredient in a particular herb works to treat a condition or illness. Whole herbs contain many ingredients, and they may work together to produce a beneficial effect. Many factors determine how effective an herb will be. For example, the type of environment (climate, bugs, soil quality) in which a plant grew will affect it, as will how and when it was harvested and processed.

How are herbs used?

The use of herbal supplements has increased dramatically over the past 30 years. Herbal supplements are classified as dietary supplements by the U.S. Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. That means herbal supplements -- unlike prescription drugs -- can be sold without being tested to prove they are safe and effective. However, herbal supplements must be made according to good manufacturing practices.

The most commonly used herbal supplements in the U.S. include echinacea (Echinacea purpurea and related species), St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum), ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), garlic (Allium sativum), saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), ginseng (Panax ginseng, or Asian ginseng; and Panax quinquefolius, or American ginseng), goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), valerian (Valeriana officinalis), chamomile (Matricaria recutita), feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), ginger (Zingiber officinale), evening primrose (Oenothera biennis), and milk thistle (Silybum marianum).

Often, herbs may be used together because the combination is more effective and may have fewer side effects. Health care providers must take many factors into account when recommending herbs, including the species and variety of the plant, the plant's habitat, how it was stored and processed, and whether or not there are contaminants (including heavy metals and pesticides).

What is herbal medicine good for?

Herbal medicine is used to treat many conditions, such as asthma, eczema, premenstrual syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, migraine, menopausal symptoms, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, and cancer, among others. Herbal supplements are best taken under the guidance of a trained health care provider. For example, one study found that 90% of arthritic patients use alternative therapies, such as herbal medicine.Be sure to consult with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any herbs. Some common herbs and their uses are discussed below.

Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) has been used in traditional medicine to treat circulatory disorders and enhance memory. Although not all studies agree, ginkgo may be especially effective in treating dementia (including Alzheimer's disease) and intermittent claudication (poor circulation in the legs). It also shows promise for enhancing memory in older adults. Laboratory studies have shown that ginkgo improves blood circulation by dilating blood vessels and reducing the stickiness of blood platelets. By the same token, this means ginkgo may also increase the effect of some blood thinning medications, including aspirin. People taking blood thinning medications should ask their doctor before using ginkgo. Caution should also be taken with people with a history of seizures and people with fertility issues; speak with your physician.
Kava kava (Piper methysticum) is said to elevate mood, enhance well being and contentment, and produce a feeling of relaxation. Several studies have found that kava may be useful in the treatment of anxiety, insomnia, and related nervous disorders. However, there is serious concern that kava may cause liver damage. It's not clear whether the kava itself caused liver damage in a few people, or whether it was taking kava in combination with other drugs or herbs. It's also not clear whether kava is dangerous at previously recommended doses, or only at higher doses. Some countries have taken kava off the market. It remains available in the United States, but the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a consumer advisory in March of 2002 regarding the "rare" but potential risk of liver failure associated with kava containing products.
Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is used by more than 2 million men in the United States for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a non cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. A number of studies suggest that the herb is effective for treating symptoms, including frequent urination, having trouble starting or maintaining urination, and needing to urinate during the night. But a well-conducted study published in the February 9, 2006 edition of the New England Journal of Medicine found that saw palmetto was no better than placebo in relieving the signs and symptoms of BPH.
St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) is well known for its antidepressant effects. In general, most studies have shown that St. John's wort may be an effective treatment for mild to moderate depression, and has fewer side effects than most other prescription antidepressants. But the herb interacts with a wide variety of medications, including birth control pills, and can potentially cause unwanted side effects, so it is important to take it only under the guidance of a health care provider.
Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a popular alternative to commonly prescribed medications for sleep problems because it is considered to be both safe and gentle. Some studies bear this out, although not all have found valerian to be effective. Unlike many prescription sleeping pills, valerian may have fewer side effects, such as morning drowsiness. However, Valerian does interact with some medications, particularly psychiatric medications, so you should speak to your doctor to see if Valerian is right for you.
Echinacea preparations (from Echinacea purpurea and other Echinacea species) may improve the body's natural immunity. Echinacea is one of the most commonly used herbal products, but studies are mixed as to whether it can help prevent or treat colds. A review of 14 clinical studies examining the effect of echinacea on the incidence and duration of the common cold found that echinacea supplements decreased the odds of getting a cold by 58%. It also shortened the duration of a cold by 1.4 days. Echinacea can interact with certain medications and may not be right for people with certain conditions, for example people with autoimmune disorders or certain allergies. Speak with your physician.

Buying standardized herbal supplements helps ensure you will get the right dose and the effects similar to human clinical trials. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about which herbal supplements are best for your health concerns.

Is there anything I should watch out for?

Used correctly, herbs can help treat a variety of conditions, and in some cases, may have fewer side effects than some conventional medications. But because they are unregulated, herbal products are often mislabeled and may contain additives and contaminants that aren' t listed on the label. Some herbs may cause allergic reactions or interact with conventional drugs, and some are toxic if used improperly or at high doses. Taking herbs on your own increases your risk, so it is important to consult with your doctor or pharmacist before taking herbal medicines. Some examples of adverse reactions from certain popular herbs are described below.

St. John's wort can cause your skin to be more sensitive to the sun's ultraviolet rays, and may cause an allergic reaction, stomach upset, fatigue, and restlessness. Clinical studies have found that St. John's wort also interferes with the effectiveness of many drugs, including the blood thinner warfarin (Couamdin), protease inhibitors for HIV, birth control pills, certain asthma drugs, and many other medications. In addition, St. John's wort should not be taken with prescribed antidepressant medication. The FDA has issued a public health advisory concerning many of these interactions.
Kava kava has been linked to liver toxicity. Kava has been taken off the market in several countries because of liver toxicity.
Valerian may cause sleepiness, and in some people it may even have the unexpected effect of overstimulating instead of sedating.
Garlic, ginkgo, feverfew, and ginger, among other herbs, may increase the risk of bleeding.
Evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) may increase the risk of seizures in people who have seizure disorders and bleeding in people with bleeding disorders or who take blood thinning medications, such as Coumadin (Warfarin).

Some herbal supplements, especially those imported from Asian countries, may contain high levels of heavy metals, including lead, mercury, and cadmium. It is important to purchase herbal supplements from reputable manufacturers to ensure quality. Many herbs can interact with prescription medications and cause unwanted or dangerous reactions. For example, there is a high degree of herb/drug interaction among patients who are under treatment for cancer. Be sure to consult your doctor before trying any herbal products.

Who is using herbal medicine?

Nearly one-third of Americans use herbs. Unfortunately, a study in the New England Journal of Medicine found that nearly 70% of people taking herbal medicines (most of whom were well educated and had a higher-than-average income) were reluctant tell their doctors that they used complementary and alternative medicine.

How is herbal medicine sold in stores?

The herbs available in most stores come in several different forms: teas, syrups, oils, liquid extracts, tinctures, and dry extracts (pills or capsules). Teas can be made from dried herbs left to soak for a few minutes in hot water, or by boiling herbs in water and then straining the liquid. Syrups, made from concentrated extracts and added to sweet tasting preparations, are often used for sore throats and coughs. Oils are extracted from plants and often used as rubs for massage, either by themselves or as part of an ointment or cream. Tinctures and liquid extracts are made of active herbal ingredients dissolved in a liquid (usually water, alcohol, or glycerol). Tinctures are typically a 1:5 or 1:10 concentration, meaning that one part of the herb is prepared with 5 - 10 parts (by weight) of the liquid. Liquid extracts are more concentrated than tinctures and are typically a 1:1 concentration. A dry extract form is the most concentrated form of an herbal product (typically 2:1 - 8:1) and is sold as a tablet, capsule, or lozenge.

No organization or agency regulates the manufacture or certifies the labeling of herbal preparations. This means you can't be sure that the amount of the herb contained in the bottle, or even from dose to dose, is the same as what is stated on the label. Some herbal preparations are standardized, meaning that the preparation is guaranteed to contain a specific amount of the active ingredients of the herb. However, it is still important to ask companies making standardized herbal products about their product's guarantee. It is important to talk to your doctor or an expert in herbal medicine about the recommended doses of any herbal products.

Are there experts in herbal medicine?

Herbalists, chiropractors, naturopathic physicians, pharmacists, medical doctors, and practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine all may use herbs to treat illness. Naturopathic physicians believe that the body is continually striving for balance and that natural therapies can support this process. They are trained in 4-year, postgraduate institutions that combine courses in conventional medical science (such as pathology, microbiology, pharmacology, and surgery) with clinical training in herbal medicine, homeopathy, nutrition, and lifestyle counseling.

How can I find a qualified herbalist in my area?

For additional information, or to locate an experienced herbalist in your area, contact the American Herbalists Guild (AHG) at site at www.americanherbalistguild.com. To located a licensed naturopath in your area, call the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP) at www.naturopathic.org.

What is the future of herbal medicine?

In some countries in Europe -- unlike the U.S. -- herbs are classified as drugs and are regulated. The German Commission E, an expert medical panel, actively researches their safety and effectiveness.

While still not widely accepted, herbal medicine is being taught more in medical schools and pharmacy schools. More health care providers are learning about the positive and potentially negative effects of using herbal medicines to help treat health conditions. Some health care providers, including doctors and pharmacists, are trained in herbal medicine. They can help people create treatment plans that use herbs, conventional medications, and lifestyle changes to promote health.

Doctors are developing modern methods for the treatment of tooth decay

2012-04-13T15:02:00.001-07:00

It seems possible to reduce medical visits to dental clinics and the need for drilling and fillings for the treatment of tooth decay and cavities of the teeth, through the adoption of remedial programs provide a new on these cases on the basis that they Bacterial diseases are prevention, this has been confirmed by the American Academy of Dental year.

The doctors explained that the advanced cases of tooth decay caused by filling the mouth Baltjaoev were treated in the past fillings allocated to it. Now it was considered a kind of bacterial infections that address the disclosure of the bacteria that cause cavities, known as Staphylococcus serial "Stervtokokas Maōtanz," and disposed of before a drilling cavities in the teeth, which reduces the need for patients to frequent repairs.

They said that he can patients address the decay in the home when their followers prevention programs that prevent or stop or even reflect a cavity early, so get rid of bacteria decay by using a chemical treatments that contain fluoride or the article "Klorhiksidin" or iodine or Zailitol products or baking soda suitable initial decay in the teeth, and then follow the second step, known as the "re-mineralization," which compensate for the minerals calcium and phosphate, which lost at the start of decay.

And assist new developments in the field of dentistry in the detection of cavities in the primary by using laser light instead of visual inspection or X-Sunni can not identify cavities, but when they hit a large area, and thus an area of reform is very small and do not affect the tooth structure and keep it strong than if they were full of fillings

2012-04-12T04:43:00.000-07:00

Almonds are definitely among the healthiest natural foods, and consuming small amounts of almonds a day can provide us with a great deal of positive effects. Almonds are low on the glycemic index. They are rich in vitamin E and calcium, so these nuts can be recommended to those who suffer from anemia, insomnia, vision problems, heartburn, or stomach cramps. Almond extracts can be used to relieve coughs and other symptoms of respiratory problems. Almond kernels are used for producing almond oil, one of the most important and the most widely used oils for skin care. This natural product is rich in mono-saturated fats and fatty acids which are very useful to our cardiovascular health. However, almonds are quite high in calories, that is why the recommended daily dose of this food is only 10-15 kernels. According to the findings of a recent study, there are scientific grounds for recommending and effectively using almonds for weight loss.The study carried out a few years ago by a group of experts at Purdue University, West Lafayette, aimed to analyze the role of healthy low-glycemic foods like almonds in weight loss. And, as the findings have shown, consuming just a handful of almonds for weight loss can be a great and very smart solution! Being low-glycemic foods, almonds, taken in small doses, can substantially influence a common rise of our blood sugar levels after we eat our daily meals. Usually, sugar levels tend to rise quite fast, and by using the foods like almonds it is possible to benefit from a slower and a little more steady rise of sugar in our blood. This way, the scientists say, we feel full for a longer period of time, and as a result, consume less calories.During the experiments, Purdue University experts questioned a group of volunteers, the students who agreed to participate in the project. The participants were assigned to two groups, which were offered the same kind of diet (the same amounts of nutrients and calories), but the members of the first group were asked to consume a handful of whole almonds on a daily basis. According to the information from the interviews, those of the participants who were eating almonds reported about feeling full for a longer period of time, so they could decrease their daily calorie consumption. Also, the levels of their blood glucose was a lot lower compared to the ones of those participants, who were not consuming whole almonds every day.Thus, using low-glycemic foods like almonds in weight loss program can help us control our calorie consumption and this way maximize our weight management efforts. The study has proven the importance and effectiveness of almonds for weight loss, however, it is important not to forget that counting calories and using a healthy balanced diet based on fresh organic foods, in conjunction with leading an active lifestyle and doing plenty of physical activities are still the key factors for safe and effective weight loss.

Obesity in Children

2012-03-17T07:03:00.001-07:00

Obesity means having too much body fat. It is different from being overweight, which means weighing too much. Both terms mean that a person's weight is greater than what is considered healthy for his or her height. Children grow at different rates, so it isn't always easy to know when a child is obese or overweight. Ask your doctor to measure your child's height and weight to determine if he or she is in a healthy range.

If a weight loss program is necessary, involve the whole family in healthy habits so your child doesn't feel singled out. You can encourage healthy eating by serving more fruits and vegetables and buying fewer sodas and high-calorie, high-fat snack foods. Physical activity can also help your child overcome obesity or being overweight. Kids need about 60 minutes each day.

Diş İltihabıİltihap ; derin çürüğün sinire kadar ulaşmasıyla bakterilerin ve toksinlerinin burada bulunan damar ve sinirin harabiyetine neden olması sonucunda oluşur.Genel tanımİltihap ; derin çürüğün sinire kadar ulaşmasıyla bakterilerin ve toksinlerinin burada bulunan damar ve sinirin harabiyetine neden olması sonucunda oluşur. Burada oluşan bakteri üre - mesi ve ödem ( sıvı toplanması ) iltihabı daha da arttırır. Bunun sonucunda iltihap dişin dışına , kök ucundan etrafa doğru yayılır. Bu sırada çok şiddetli ağrılar oluşur . Özellikle.... " gece ağrısı " iltihabın başlangıcının belirtisidir. Daha sonra yüzde şişlik olacak kadar iltihap yayılabilir. İltihap bu yayılma sırasında etrafındaki dokulara hasar verir ve çene kemiğini eritmeye başlar.İltihap belirtileriAğız içerisinde veya yüzde şişlik Şiddetli ve sürekli diş ağrısı Dişin üzerine basınca ağrı oluşması Dişte uzama hissi (ağzı kapatınca bir dişe baskı olması)Kanal tedavisiÖncelikle anestezi yapılarak hastanın canının yanmaması garantiye alınır. Daha sonra çürük temizlenip , dişin sinirinin olduğu yere ( pulpa ya ) ulaşılır .Pulpaya ulaşıldıktan sonra dişin içerisindeki birikmiş olan iltihap dışarı çıkar ve böylece şiddetli ağrıyı oluşturan basınç ortadan kalkmış olur.Sinir tamamen ölmüşse veya ağrı olmaksızın müdahale etmek mümkünse , kanal içerisindeki sinir ve doku artıkları temizlenip , çıkarılır . Böylece iltihabı yaratan bakterisel " odak " yok edilmiş olur .Eğer ağrı nedeniyle sinir çıkarılamıyorsa , siniri öldürücü etkisi olan bir madde diş içerisine konularak geçici dolgu ile diş kapatılır. Ertesi gün bu madde sayesinde sinir tamamen ölmüş olacağından daha rahat çalışılır.Kanal içerisinde bununan doku artıkları temizlendikten sonra kök ucundaki iltihabın daha kolay dışarı çıkabilmesi amacıyla kök ucuna kadar ulaşılmaya çalışılır.Kök ucuna kadar diş kanalı genişletilmelidir. Bu işlem hem iltihabın kolay dışarı çıkmasını hem de bakterilerin yerleştiği kanal duvarlarının temizlenmesini sağlar.Bir kaç seans süresince kanal içerisine çeşitli dezenfektan maddeler uygulanarak kanal içerisindeki bakteriler yok edilmeye ve iltihap azaltılmaya çalışılır. İltihabın üremesinin durduğu anlaşıldıktan ve kök ucundan iltihap gelmesi sona erdikten sonra kanal içerisi özel bir dolgu maddesiyle , kök ucuna kadar doldurulur.Üstüne geçici bi dolgu yapılarak bir süre beklenir . Bir kaç haftalık beklemenin ardından üst dolgu yapılarak tedavi bitirilir.Kanal tedavisi yapılmış dişler , canlılığını yitirdikleri için zamanla kuru ve kırılgan bir hale gelirler . Basit bir kuvvetle bile kırılabilirler. Bu nedenle kanal tedavisi yapılmış dişlerin tedavi bitiminden sonra bir kaç ay içerisinde porselen kron ile kaplanması önerilir.Kanal tedavisinden sonra dişin üzerine basınca ağrı varsa veya dişin yanında hafif bir şişlik , baloncuk varsa bu tedavinin başarılı olamadığı anlamına gelir.Kök ucundaki iyileşme ancak 6 ay sonra röntgen de görülebilir. Bu nedenle kanal tedavisinden 6 ay sonra mutlaka röntgen çekilmelidir. Eğer bu rötgende kök ucunda hala bir lezyon görülüyorsa kanal tedavisi yenilenmelidir. Eğer yenilenmesi mümkün olamıyorsa diş çekilmelidir.

What are Dental Implants?

2012-03-07T11:22:00.004-08:00

What are Dental Implants?

Replicating the natural function and appearance of your lost teeth can be very difficult to accomplish. Historically, dentures or bridge restorations would be used as replacements, but with limited results. Dental implants, however, are natural-looking replacements for missing teeth that also provide the same function as your natural tooth root. They have also been used to anchor these other types of restorations for greater success and patient satisfaction.

A More Natural Approach

A dental implant is a small, sturdy, titanium post that acts as the root structure would for a natural tooth. A dental implant is placed into your upper or lower jaw bone. After the bone has grown around the implant, implants can hold a crown, bridge or over-denture just like roots hold natural teeth in place. Implants are very durable and can last a lifetime. They require the same maintenance as natural teeth; this includes brushing, flossing and regular dental check-ups.

A single tooth or a full arch of teeth which have been lost due to injury or disease can be replaced with dental implants. Titanium metal is used because of its compatibility with bone and oral tissues.

Dental Implant History

Dental Implants were developed in 1952, in a laboratory in the university town of Lund, Sweden by Professor Per-Ingvar Brånemark, who had a “lucky” accident during bone grafting research. Much to his dismay, Dr. Brånemark discovered that it was impossible to recover any of the bone-anchored titanium microscopes he was using. The titanium plate had apparently bonded irreversibly to living bone tissue, an observation which contradicted all scientific theory at the time.

Dr. Brånemark went on to demonstrate that under carefully controlled conditions, titanium could be structurally integrated into living bone with a very high degree of predictability, and without long-term soft tissue inflammation or rejection. Brånemark coined the name “osseointegration,” meaning the attachment of healthy bone to a titanium implant.

Thus dental implants were born and the first application of dental osseointegration was the implantation of new titanium roots in an edentulous (toothless) patient in 1965. Dental implants have shown a 90 percent success rate and long-term studies continue to show improving success.

Reasons you may want to consider dental implants:

•To replace one or more teeth

•To provide support for a partial denture

•To increase the support and stability of full upper or lower denture

•To enhance chewing comfort

•To increase confidence while smiling, talking and eating

•To improve your overall psychological health

•To improve esthetic appearance and regain over all confidence

فمن السهل أن نرى لماذا الأميركيين قلقون من ارتفاع تكاليف الخدمات الطبية وخدمات طب الأسنان في المنزل قد تبدو للدول الأخرى عن بدائل أقل تكلفة. A reader recently asked: القارئ طلبت مؤخرا:
"I've heard that lots of Americans go overseas for dental or medical treatments. Is this a good idea?" "سمعت أن الكثير من الأميركيين إلى الخارج للعلاج الأسنان أو الطب. هل هذه فكرة جيدة؟"
The short answer is, "You can certainly find countries where high-quality medical and dental services cost a lot less than in the US" But "high-quality" is a totally subjective measure, involving many personal issues beyond just cost—issues only each individual can decide. الجواب القصير هو، "يمكنك أن تجد بالتأكيد البلدان التي تكون فيها خدمات عالية الجودة الطبية وخدمات طب الأسنان تكلف أقل بكثير مما في الولايات المتحدة" ولكن "عالي الجودة" هو مقياس ذاتي تماما، والتي تنطوي على العديد من القضايا الشخصية وراء القضايا ذات التكلفة فقط فقط ويمكن لكل فرد أن تقرر.

الطبية السياحة أساسيات
The idea is simple: Head for a country where medical and dental services are a lot less expensive than they are in the US and combine treatment with a vacation. الفكرة بسيطة: رئيس لبلد حيث الخدمات الطبية وخدمات طب الأسنان هي أقل كلفة بكثير مما هي عليه في الولايات المتحدة والجمع بين العلاج مع اجازة. Sometimes, travelers can pay for both the treatments and the travel arrangements and still pay less than treatment alone would cost in the US وأحيانا، يمكن للمسافرين دفع ثمن العلاج على حد سواء، وترتيبات السفر ودفع ما زالت أقل من تكلفة العلاج وحده في الولايات المتحدة
Medical tourism is most attractive for two kinds of treatment: السياحة الطبية هي الأكثر جذبا للنوعين من العلاج:
Elective medical procedures that are not covered by medical insurance. الإجراءات الطبية الاختيارية التي لا يغطيها التأمين الطبي.
Major dental procedures, for which many people have no insurance at all. طب الأسنان الإجراءات الرئيسية، والتي كثير من الناس ليس لديهم تأمين على الإطلاق.
I suspect typical Americans are more comfortable with overseas dental service than with serious medical treatments. وأظن الأميركيين النموذجية هي أكثر راحة مع خدمة طب الأسنان في الخارج من مع العلاجات الطبية الخطيرة.
Dental services خدمات طب الأسنان
A few years back, the "hottest" trend in medical tourism was bargain-priced dental treatments in Eastern Europe—notably the Czech Republic and Hungary. قبل بضع سنوات، كان "سخونة" الاتجاه في مجال السياحة الطبية صفقة الثمن علاجات الأسنان في أوروبا وخصوصا منطقة شرق الجمهورية التشيكية والمجر. But that was when the dollar was stronger; now that it's really weak ; those prices no longer look so good. ولكن كان ذلك عندما كان الدولار أقوى، وهذا الامر الان ضعيف حقا ، وتلك الأسعار لم تعد تبدو جيدة جدا.
Instead, most focus has shifted to Latin America and Asia where, according to reports, medical and dental practitioners operate modern, well-equipped clinics and centers, many of which are attached to or affiliated with resort and hotel complexes. بدلا من ذلك، فإن معظم تحول التركيز على أمريكا اللاتينية وآسيا حيث، وفقا لتقارير وممارسي الطب وطب الأسنان تعمل الحديثة، ومجهزة تجهيزا جيدا العيادات والمراكز، وكثير منها متصلة أو تابعة لمجمعات منتجع وفندق. I checked the websites for several Asian and Latin American dental complexes that cater to American visitors, and found typical prices for dental services around $350 to $500 for a crown, $700 to $1,000 for a full denture, and $2,000 to $3,000 for an implant. راجعت مواقع للمجمعات عدة الأسنان آسيا وأمريكا اللاتينية التي تلبي احتياجات الزوار الأميركي، وجدت أسعار نموذجي لخدمات طب الأسنان نحو 350 دولارا الى 500 دولار للحصول على تاج، 700 إلى 1،000 دولار للطقم أسنان كامل، و 2،000 دولار إلى 3،000 دولار لزرع. Those prices are about half of what I pay locally. تلك الأسعار ما يقرب من نصف ما كنت تدفع محليا.
Heading out of the country for dental work would seem to make the most sense in two cases: سوف يتوجه الى خارج البلاد للعمل في طب الأسنان ويبدو أن تجعل اكثر احساسا في حالتين:
If you have a mouthful of untreated major dental problems—enough root-canal, crown, implant, or denture requirements that the potential expense might justify the costs and time of a special trip, especially if you can combine it with visiting an area you'd like to see. إذا كان لديك الفم من دون معالجة المشاكل الرئيسية الأسنان، ما يكفي من قناة الجذر، تاج، زرع، أو أن متطلبات أسنان على حساب المحتملة قد تبرر التكاليف والوقت من رحلة خاصة، وخاصة إذا كنت لا يمكن الجمع بين ذلك مع زيارته لمنطقة كنت د يود أن يرى.
If you happen to live near or be visiting an area where dental services are cheap and you need just a few minor fixes or a cleaning. إذا كنت تعيش بالقرب أو أن تكون زيارته لمنطقة حيث خدمات طب الأسنان رخيصة وتحتاج فقط في بعض التعديلات الطفيفة أو تنظيف.
Going a long way just to fix a few minor problems doesn't make any economic sense, unless you really want to go a long way, anyhow. قطعنا شوطا طويلا فقط لإصلاح بعض المشاكل الطفيفة لا يجعل أي من الناحية الاقتصادية، إلا إذا كنت تريد حقا أن تقطع شوطا طويلا، على أية حال.
Medical services الخدمات الطبية
As far as I can tell, most Americans who travel outside the country for medical reasons do so for the following: بقدر ما استطيع ان اقول، معظم الأميركيين الذين يسافرون خارج البلاد لأسباب طبية أن تفعل ذلك من أجل ما يلي:
Elective procedures not covered by insurance at all, such as cosmetic and weight-loss surgery. الإجراءات الانتخابية التي لا يغطيها التأمين في كل شيء، مثل مستحضرات التجميل وجراحة لانقاص الوزن.
Big-ticket procedures only partially covered by insurance and which entail extremely high co-payments. الكبيرة تذكرة الإجراءات فقط مغطاة جزئيا من قبل شركات التأمين وبما يترتب على ذلك مرتفعة للغاية شارك في المدفوعات.
Experimental procedures and treatments not yet approved in the US by insurance companies or the FDA. التجريبية الإجراءات والعلاجات التي لم تعتمد بعد في الولايات المتحدة من قبل شركات التأمين أو إدارة الغذاء والدواء و.
Americans seem to be more comfortable going overseas for elective rather than life-threatening medical conditions. يبدو أن الأميركيين سوف تكون أكثر راحة في الخارج لانتخابي وليس تهدد الحياة الظروف الطبية. Some, to be sure, are willing to look anywhere to treat cancer and other terminal conditions for which their regular doctors have said, "nothing more we can do." بعض، للتأكد، على استعداد للنظر في أي مكان لعلاج السرطان والشروط الأخرى للمحطة التي أطبائهم العادية وقال، "لا شيء أكثر يمكننا القيام به". But that's a field fraught with quackery and false hopes, and I have nothing further to add. ولكن هذا المجال محفوف دجل وآمال كاذبة، وليس لدي مزيد من إضافتها.
Risks المخاطر
Clearly, medical treatments overseas add new risks to the usual uncertainties. بوضوح، العلاج الطبي في الخارج إضافة إلى مخاطر جديدة من الشكوك المعتادة. Among them: من بينها:
Overall health standards in many Asian and Latin American countries are well below those in the US or Western Europe. معايير الصحة العامة في العديد من بلدان آسيا وأمريكا اللاتينية هي أقل بكثير من تلك الموجودة في الولايات المتحدة أو أوروبا الغربية.
You really know very little about individual doctors, their histories, and their qualifications, and they know little or nothing about your medical history. كنت أعرف حقا القليل جدا عن الأطباء الفردية، تاريخها، ومؤهلاتهم، ويعرفون القليل أو لا شيء عن التاريخ الطبي الخاص بك.
If you suffer delayed complications, you may be 4,000 to 10,000 miles away from the doctors who performed the treatments. إذا كنت تعاني مضاعفات المتأخرة، قد تكون 4000 إلى 10،000 ميل بعيدا عن الأطباء الذين أجروا علاجات.
Long flights immediately after surgeries or complicated procedures entail extra risks. الرحلات الطويلة على الفور بعد عملية جراحية أو إجراءات معقدة تنطوي على مخاطر إضافية.
If something goes wrong, you'd have a very tough time recovering malpractice damages—fewer lawsuits is one of the reasons foreign medical costs are lower than in the US إذا سارت الامور بشكل سيء، وكنت تجد صعوبة بالغة جدا يتعافى الممارسات الخاطئة، أقل الأضرار الدعاوى القضائية هي واحدة من الأسباب التكاليف الطبية الأجنبية هي أقل مما كانت عليه في الولايات المتحدة
Many Americans are apparently willing to accept those risks. العديد من الأميركيين على ما يبدو على استعداد لقبول تلك المخاطر. And, certainly, many foreign clinics have a good track record of maintaining the highest standards and providing top-notch services. وبالتأكيد، والعيادات الخارجية العديد من لديها سجل جيد في الحفاظ على أعلى المعايير وتوفير الخدمات ذات المستوى العالي.
Locating doctors and clinics تحديد الأطباء والعيادات
Travelers can locate overseas medical and dental services online or through guidebooks: يمكن للمسافرين في الخارج تحديد الخدمات الطبية وخدمات طب الأسنان عبر الإنترنت أو من خلال أدلة:
Several online sites post listings for medical, dental, and optical services throughout the world. عدة مواقع على الانترنت اضافة قوائم للخدمات الطبية، طب الأسنان، والبصرية في جميع أنحاء العالم.

Why Did I Chip / Break My Tooth?

Why Did I Chip / Break My Tooth?
Why Do Teeth Break and Chip?

Most people have experienced chipping or breaking one of their teeth at one point or another. However, they may not know why it happened. An accidental injury, bite discrepancies, grinding (bruxism), clenching, or tooth decay (a tooth that has decayed enough to undermine its surface) can obviously cause breakage. However, it is not common knowledge that one’s tooth can also break/chip if a tooth filling (either amalgram silver and composite fillings) is not the right size or has any cracks in it.
What To Do If You Break Your Tooth
Since breaks can range from small chips to major fractures, you could either need a major procedure or no treatment at all. A tooth has three layers: the enamel (hard outer coating), the dentin (middle layer under the enamel), and the pulp, which is the tooth’s fleshy nerve center. The most common tooth breakage is just a chip where one’s tooth simply loses some enamel. Usually, no pain is felt. If enough tooth enamel is chipped off, the dentin may be exposed. The tooth may not hurt too much, but it is more sensitive to cold. The worst breaks expose the pulp, which can cause extreme pain and even bleeding.
If you get a small chip in your tooth and it is feeling sensitive, try a painkiller (if it is safe for you to take it), and make a dental appointment. For more serious fractures, rinse your mouth out with warm water, and make a dentist appointment as soon as possible. If you take a painkiller, do not take aspirin as it increases the risk of heavy bleeding. If your mouth was injured and your soft tissue is swelling, apply an ice pack to it.
A dental emergency involves your whole tooth being knocked out, roots and all, and this requires immediate treatment to save the tooth. Pharmacies sell tooth savers, which is something people should keep in their medicine cabinets in case of an emergency like this. The tooth should be carried to the dentist in a container of either your saliva or milk. Do not touch the root of the tooth, so it does not get damaged. Handle the tooth gently, do not scrub it, but you can rinse the tooth with milk if you feel the need to.
Broken Tooth Treatment
Even if your tooth only got chipped, the dentist is probably going to take an x-ray of the damaged tooth and recommend being gentle with it for a few days. Usually a minor chip can be smoothed out/polished, or perhaps filled with a composite material. If the break is more serious, rapid treatment is needed.
If dentin is exposed, a dentist can cover it with a material that will provide protection temporarily until a more specific treatment is begun. A tooth can almost always be completely recovered with a permanent crown if the pulp remains healthy.
Unfortunately, if the pulp is damaged, the solution will be more complicated. Endodontists and general dentists perform root canals in order to remove the damaged pulp before putting on a crown. An immediate follow-up may be requested if the break in your tooth is more than a small chip, in order to make sure it is healing correctly.
How to Prevent Your Teeth From Chipping/Breaking
People can take various precautions in order to prevent a tooth fracture from happening. While playing sports, one can use a mouth guard that protects the teeth while allowing the person to breathe and be active without distraction. One should go on regular dental checkups for preventive treatment and practice proper oral care habits at home. By doing this, one will prevent the development of tooth decay that could induce breakage.
If you have large fillings in one or more of your teeth, you should probably get the high-risk teeth crowned because the preventative treatment is less painful and costly than if you wait until they fracture. It is common for root canals to be needed for teeth cracked from oversized fillings in order to save them. Sometimes the tooth will need to be removed from your mouth completely if the case is severe enough. Crowns hold teeth together by surrounding them in a continuous shell.
Also, if you have an uneven bite or an issue with bruxism or clenching, your dentist can take care of any problems caused by these issues in a comprehensive treatment plan for mouth restoration; with this, uneven and extreme wear is minimized and cracks are much less likely to occur.

What causes teeth to break?

2012-03-06T07:31:00.001-08:00

Answer
Breaking can result from internal causes like extreme mastication (which usually only results in chipping), gum disease (gingivitis) which undermines root structure, making teeth susceptible to cracking (under torque) and multiple cavities (from poor hygiene or systemic deficiencies) which weaken the remaining enamel, thus leading to fissures and separations. External causes include falls, fights and vehicle accidents. Any concentrated or massive force on the teeth from front or side can chip, crack or dislodge a single tooth or many teeth. Until the 1930s most people who lost teeth learned to live without them or had "false teeth" crafted for their upper and/or lower jaws. Today orthodontic surgeons can implant titanium posts to which skilled dentists can affix life-like enamel crowns.

Fractured and Broken Teeth
What You Can Do What Your Dentist Will Do
Teeth are remarkably strong, but they can chip, crack (fracture) or break. This can happen in several ways:
Biting down on something hard
Being hit in the face or mouth
Falling
Having cavities that weaken the tooth
When a tooth chips or breaks, it may not hurt. However, your tongue usually feels the sharp area quite quickly. Minor tooth fractures usually don't cause pain, but if a large piece of the tooth breaks off, it can hurt. That's because the nerve inside the tooth may be damaged. If it is exposed to air, or hot or cold foods or drinks, it can be extremely uncomfortable.
Pain from a broken or cracked tooth may be constant or may come and go. Many people feel pain when they chew because chewing puts pressure on the tooth.
What You Can Do
Cracked (Fractured) Teeth There is no way to treat a cracked tooth at home. You need to see your dentist. Sometimes the tooth looks fine, but it hurts only when you eat or when the temperature in your mouth changes (because you drank something hot or cold, for example). If your tooth hurts all the time, it may have a damaged nerve or blood vessels. This is a serious warning sign.
Broken Teeth If you have a broken tooth, see your dentist as soon as possible. Your dentist can figure out if the break was caused by cavities, and if the tooth's nerve is in danger. A damaged nerve usually will require root canal treatment.
Until you get to the dentist's office:
Rinse your mouth well with warm water.
Apply pressure with a piece of gauze on any bleeding areas for about 10 minutes or until the bleeding stops. If this doesn't work, use a tea bag with pressure on the area to stop the bleeding.
Apply a cold pack to the cheek or lips over the broken tooth. This will help reduce swelling and relieve pain.
If you can't get to your dentist right away, cover the part of the tooth that is in your mouth with temporary dental cement. You can find this at a drugstore.
Take an over-the-counter pain reliever.
What Your Dentist Will Do
Fractured Teeth There are several types of tooth fractures and breaks, each of which requires different treatments. These include:
Minor cracks — Also called "craze lines," these are surface cracks that affect only the outer white surface of the tooth, called the enamel. Minor cracks rarely need treatment. However, your dentist may lightly polish the area to smooth out any rough spots.
Cracked tooth — This type of fracture involves the whole tooth, from the chewing surface all the way down to the nerve. The pieces remain in place, but the crack gradually spreads. Cracks can sometimes be repaired with filling material. The tooth often will need a crown to prevent the crack from getting worse. If the pulp (nerve and other live tissues) is damaged, you may need a root canal as well.
Chips — Minor chips don't always need treatment. Your dentist may suggest repairing the damage with filling material to prevent it from getting worse or to make the tooth look and feel better. If the chip is very small, the dentist may polish and smooth out the chipped area.
Broken cusp — These breaks affect the pointed chewing surfaces (the cusps) of the teeth. They usually do not affect the pulp and are unlikely to cause much pain. Your dentist may repair the damage to restore the tooth's shape. Frequently, however, an onlay or crown will be required.
Serious breaks — These breaks go deep enough to expose the nerve. They almost always cause the tooth to hurt and be sensitive. Usually, the broken part of the tooth will bleed. You will need root canal treatment to remove the exposed nerve and probably a crown to restore the tooth to normal function so you can eat and chew properly.
Split tooth — This means that the tooth has split vertically into two separate parts. Some teeth, such as your back teeth (molars), have more than one root. It may be possible to keep one of the roots, which will then be covered with a crown. First, you will need root canal treatment. Second, the dentist will remove any roots that cannot be kept. Third, you will need a crown to cover the root and replace the tooth. In some cases, when a root cannot be saved, the tooth will have to be removed.
Vertical breaks or split root — These cracks start in the root of the tooth and extend upward toward the chewing surface. These breaks are often painful because the area around the root may be inflamed or infected. In most cases, the tooth will have to be removed.
Decay-induced break — In this case, the tooth has broken or crumbled because a cavity weakened it from the inside out. Your dentist will evaluate the cavity and recommend the best way to restore the tooth. In some cases, if the decay is extensive and goes down to the bone,the tooth may have to be removed

Dental Health and Sensitive Teeth

2012-03-05T08:01:00.000-08:00

Dental Health and Sensitive Teeth
Tooth sensitivity is tooth discomfort in one or more teeth that is triggered by hot, cold, sweet, or sour foods and drinks, or even by breathing cold air. The pain can be sharp, sudden, and shoot deep into the nerve endings of your teeth.

What Causes Sensitive Teeth?
Sensitive teeth occur when the underlying layer of your teeth -- the dentin -- becomes exposed as a result of receding gum tissue (the protective blanket that covers the tooth roots). The roots, which are not covered by hard enamel, contain thousands of tiny tubules leading to the tooth's nerve center (the pulp). These dentinal tubules (or channels) allow the stimuli -- for example, the hot, cold, or sweet food -- to reach the nerve in your tooth, which results in the pain you feel.
There are many factors that may lead to sensitive teeth, including.
Brushing too hard. Over time, brushing too hard or using a hard-bristled toothbrush can wear down enamel and cause the dentin to be exposed. It can also cause recession of the gums (the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth).
Tooth decay near the gum line.
Recession of the gums. As gums move away from a tooth due to conditions such as periodontal disease, the root surface becomes exposed.
Gum disease (gingivitis) . Inflamed and sore gum tissue may cause sensitivity due to the loss of supporting ligaments, which exposes the root surface that leads directly to the nerve of the tooth.
Cracked teeth. Chipped or broken teeth may fill with bacteria from plaque and enter the pulp causing Inflammation.
Teeth grinding . Grinding or clenching your teeth may wear down the enamel and expose underlying dentin.
Tooth whitening products. These products may be major contributors to sensitive teeth.
Your age. Tooth sensitivity is highest between the ages of 25 and 30.
Plaque build-up. The presence of plaque on the root surfaces can cause sensitivity.
Mouthwash use. Long-term use of some mouthwashes. Some over-the-counter mouthwashes contain acids that can worsen tooth sensitivity if you have exposed dentin (the middle layer of the tooth). The acids further damage the dentin layer of the tooth. If you have dentin sensitivity, ask your dentist about the use of a neutral fluoride solution.
Acidic foods. Regular consumption of foods with a high acid content, such as citrus fruits, tomatoes, pickles, and tea, can cause enamel erosion.
Recent routine dental procedures. Sensitivity can occur following teeth cleaning, root planing, crown placement, and tooth restoration. Sensitivity caused by dental procedures is temporary, usually disappearing in four to six weeks.

What Can I Do to Reduce Tooth Sensitivity?
Some steps you can take to prevent tooth sensitivity include:
Maintain good oral hygiene. Continue to follow proper brushing and flossing techniques to thoroughly clean all parts of your teeth and mouth.
Use a soft bristled toothbrush. This will result in less toothbrush abrasion to the tooth surface and less irritation to your gums. Brush gently and carefully around the gum line so you do not remove more gum tissue.
Use desensitizing toothpaste. There are several brands of toothpaste available for sensitive teeth. With regular use you should notice a decrease in sensitivity. You may need to try several different brands to find the product that works best for you. Another tip. spread a thin layer of the toothpaste on the exposed tooth roots with your finger or a Q-tip before you go to bed. Do not use a tartar control toothpaste; rather, use a fluoridated toothpaste.
Watch what you eat. Frequent consumption of highly acid foods can gradually dissolve tooth enamel and lead to dentin exposure. They may also aggravate the sensitivity and start the pain reaction.
Use fluoridated dental products. Daily use of a fluoridated mouth rinse can decrease sensitivity. Ask your dentist about available products for home use.
Avoid teeth grinding. If you grind or clench your teeth, use a mouth guard at night.
See your dentist at regular intervals. Get professional tooth cleaning, oral hygiene instructions, and fluoride treatments every six months (or sooner depending on your condition).

الصداع Headaches و علاقته بالأسنان

الصداع هو المسبب الأكثر شيوعاً لألم الرأس والعنق. ومن الممكن أن ينعكس الألم على الأسنان وأيضاً أن يختلط مع الألم السني. يتواجد الصداع في أشكال مختلفة وهناك تصنيفات كثيرة للصداع ولكنه يصنف بشكل أساسي إلى : وظيفي وعضوي.
الصداع الوظيفي Functional:
الصداع الوظيفي ينتج عن اضطرابات الأوعية (الشقيقة، ألم الرأس العنقودي، التهاب الأوعية السمي وفرط ضغط الدم) والاضطرابات الانفعالية.
الشقيقةMigraine headaches: ممكن أن ينعكس ألمها على الأسنان (وبشكل أكثر شيوعاً على الأنياب والضواحك العلوية) بالرغم من أن المشكلة الرئيسية هي الصداع، النمط الكلاسيكي من الشقيقة يشخص بسهولة (ألم نابض أحادي الجانب يترافق مع رهاب من الضوء وغثيان). ونجد أن المريض يشكو من نكس الأعراض والمتغيرات اللانموذجية ممكن أن تربك التشخيص.
الصداع العنقوديCluster headaches:
يكون الألم فيه شديد ومتكرر الحدوث (يومياً في بعض الأحيان) ولفترة 2 ـ 3 أشهر ويستمر عادة لأكثر من ساعة يكون الألم محصوراً عادةً بالفرع الأول والثاني للعصب ثلاثي التوائم ومن الممكن أن يتظاهر الألم على الفك العلوي بشكل أقل على أسنان الفك السفلي.
صداع التوترTension headache:
وهذا هو الشكل الأكثر شيوعاً للصداع، يتضمن التشنج العضلي الذي يسبب حدوث الصداع والذي من الممكن أن ينعكس على منطقة واسعة تتضمن الجبهة، الصدغ والمنطقة القفوية.
الصداع العضوي Organic:
ينتج هذا الصداع عن الآفات النسيجية (Mass lesions)، الانتان، التهاب الشرايين، التهاب الأوردة، انسداد وعائي، ألم عصبي قحفي، أمراض العين، الأذن، الأنف، الحلق والأسنان.
تتفاوت الأورام الدماغية في إحداثها للصداع فقد لا تحدث صداعاً أو أنها تتسبب في إحداث صداع شديد يسبب الصداع عادةً ألم عميق، مستمر وغير مميز. وأكثر أنواع الصداع إيلاماً هي المترافقة مع الآلام العصبية والوعائية (vascular headache ). الصداع الناتج عن الورم الدموي داخل القحف يشاهد عادةً بعد التعرض لأذية ما.
التهاب العصبNeuritis:
التهاب الأعصاب المغذية للأسنان تسبب عادة ألم الأسنان أو تتشابه, يمكن أن ينتج التهاب العصب عن الرض أو انتشار المرض (الالتهاب أو النمو الورمي) من البنى المجاورة. ونستطيع التعرف على هذا النمط من الألم من خلال القصة المرضية التي تتضمن عادة الرض أو تقدم المرض أو أعراض عصبية أخرى مثل: الخدر ، التنميل أو الضعف العضلي أحياناً والشلل.

عصاب مثلث التوائمTrigeminal Neuralgia:
يبدأ عصاب مثلث التوائم من محفز غير ضار ومن منطقة قادحة للزناد مسبباً آلام شديدة. ويشيع في المرضى كبار السن وهو يتبع تشريح العصب ثلاثي التوائم ويكون محصور عادةً بأحد فروعه وبشكل أكثر شيوعاً فرع الفك السفلي.
والمواقع الأكثر إثارةً للعصاب تكون عادةً خارج فموية ولكن قد تكون داخل فموية وتتظاهر بالتالي بآلام في الأسنان وما زالت مسببات العصاب مثلث التوائم مثيرة للجدل.
