🦷 If bad breath continues even after brushing and flossing, it may be linked to gum disease. Plaque and tartar beneath the gumline create conditions where bacteria release strong sulphur compounds. Early gum disease can be painless, with only subtle signs such as bleeding or swelling.

A professional cleaning and periodontal check up helps address the cause rather than masking the symptoms.

If you would like to book a check up, you can call 021 551 5168.

🦷 Toothache often feels worse at night because lying flat increases blood flow to the head. This raises pressure inside an inflamed pulp chamber, which cannot expand, so the pain feels stronger and more throbbing. In cases of deep decay or severe inflammation, the nerve becomes even more reactive when the body is horizontal.

If your pain intensifies at night, it is usually a sign that the tooth needs urgent assessment.

If you would like to book a check up, call 021 551 5168.

Ernstige tandvleisontsteking ontwikkel dikwels pynloos. Baie mense besef eers daar is fout wanneer die probleem reeds gevorder het. Goeie mondgesondheid begin nie eers wanneer jy in die tandarts se stoel sit nie – dit begin by dit wat jy elke dag by die huis doen.

🦷 The radiation from a digital dental X ray is very small, often less than what you receive from sunlight or a short flight. Modern sensors reduce exposure by up to 90 percent, and X rays are taken only when they provide clear clinical value.

You are welcome to call 021 551 5168 if you would like to book a check up.

🦷 Sugar free gum supports your mouth’s natural defences by increasing saliva flow and helping neutralise acids after meals. This reduces the time your teeth are exposed to harmful acidity and can lower the risk of cavities.

Please call 021 551 5168 if you would like to book a check up.

🦷 Implants cannot decay like natural teeth, but the gum and bone around them can still become infected if plaque builds up. Conditions such as peri implant mucositis and peri implantitis often start quietly and may lead to bone loss if not treated early.

Daily brushing and flossing, along with routine check ups and professional cleanings, help keep the tissues around your implant healthy and stable for the long term.

If you would like to book a check up, you can call 021 551 5168.

🦷 What happens if you don’t replace a missing tooth?

It might seem like “just one gap,” but it can lead to bigger oral health problems over time.

• Teeth shift and crowd
• Bite misaligns, causing jaw discomfort
• Jawbone begins to deteriorate
• Chewing and speech may be affected

Replacing missing teeth helps protect more than just your smile; it supports your whole mouth.
