The decrease in estrogen levels during menopause increases the risk of bone loss, which is often associated with conditions like osteoporosis, hip fractures, and loss of height. Additionally, this hormonal change can affect oral health by impacting the jaw. A loss of jaw bone density may lead to tooth loss and receding gums, which exposes more of the tooth surface to potential decay. It's important to ensure you're not at risk! Our facilities are home to several periodontists. If you're looking for expert care, you can find a list of them at www.kilnerparkdayhospital.co.za.

Did you know that a deficiency in vitamin D can increase the risk of tooth decay, sensitivity, and fractures? Vitamin D is essential for strong bones and good oral health. Low levels of vitamin D are associated with dental problems such as gum disease and tooth loss. It is important to maintain optimal vitamin D levels through supplementation or exposure to sunlight, as this can promote better oral health and potentially assist in treating certain oral conditions. Vitamin D helps facilitate calcium absorption, which is crucial for the maturation of enamel, the protective layer that shields the inner structures of the teeth. For expert advice on your dental needs and concerns, be sure to speak with your dentist.

August is Women’s Month, making it an ideal time to examine the connection between hormones and women’s oral health. Hormonal fluctuations can significantly impact oral health and increase the risk of dental caries (tooth decay). These hormones influence saliva production, which is essential for neutralizing acids and washing away food debris, and also affect the body’s inflammatory response to oral bacteria. However, maintaining good oral hygiene and effective plaque control can help mitigate the effects of hormonal fluctuations.

Did you know that tooth decay, also known as caries, is the most prevalent disease globally, affecting people of all ages? Tooth enamel, the hard protective outer layer of your teeth, cannot regenerate once it is lost due to decay. This process can start as a small cavity but can lead to significant damage if left untreated, potentially resulting in painful infections, abscesses, and broader systemic inflammation that affects your overall health. Furthermore, delaying treatment can transform a minor issue into a more serious condition, necessitating more invasive procedures such as root canals or extractions, which can be significantly costlier. To maintain optimal oral health and prevent these complications, it is essential to schedule an annual check-up with your dentist. Don’t wait until problems arise; take proactive steps for your dental health today!

Did you happen to know? A dental problem could be causing your headache. There are many causes of headaches, and dental problems may be another reason you have continuous headaches that are hard to get rid of. Headaches caused by teeth problems are classified as tension headaches because they mainly result from the tension that occurs in the jaws. The nervous system then interprets that tension or pain from the jaw as a headache. Speak to your dentist for expert advice on all your dental needs and concerns.

Did you know that bad breath is more common in people who skip meals or are on a diet? Almost everyone experiences bad breath occasionally, especially in the morning. A major cause of bad breath is a decrease in saliva production. Saliva plays a crucial role in maintaining oral health and helps reduce or eliminate bad breath. When saliva decreases, bacteria can grow, leading to unpleasant Odors. Chewing food stimulates saliva production, whereas not eating results in less saliva and an increase in bacteria, which can lead to bad breath. Speak to your dentist for expert advice on all your dental needs and concerns.

Focusing on your oral health is essential for overall well-being. Here are some tips to maintain a healthy mouth and body:
1. Maintain good oral hygiene. Try to keep oral hygiene top of mind. It is the building block to a healthy lifestyle. Brushing, flossing, and using mouthwash can help prevent gum disease and maintain healthy gums.
2. Regular dental checkups. Put your mouth first, as early detection and treatment of gum disease can prevent it from progressing and potentially worsening systemic health conditions.
3. Healthy diet. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can support oral and overall health.
