As we’re all aware, most of us if not all, suffer from one dental problem to another, so im here to ask advise on the same.
First off, is it wiser kuoshwa meno kwa Dentist, ama ni the same tu na kubuy jik and bleach your teeth often kutoa plaque or iyo brownish substance kwa meno?
Ukiosha meno kwa Dentist, how true is it that your teeth will become weak?
Secondly, Cavities and cracked teeth, is it better to fill them or get the affected parts removed completely?
Is Root Canal painful? Better than filling? What if you had two different teeth with cavities?
Finally, who is the Best dentist you’d recommend around Nakuru and what are their prices?
Kindly give out any knowledge you have on dental issues, we’ll greatly appreciate it.
All teeth whitening products have Hydrogen peroxide. Even those expensive solutions dentists use, the only difference is the concentration. You can buy hydrogen peroxide at any pharmacy, costs less than 100 bob for a 200 ml bottle. Gurgle about 1 bottlecap for 30 seconds to 1 minute before brushing your teeth in the morning. Some come with different levels of concentration, so if it feels irritating, you can dilute it with water. When you gurgle, it turns into a foamy liquid, which’s a chemical reaction that gets rid of the tartar and staining.
You can gurgle about 4 times a week, by the third week you’ll have some noticeable results. I’d advise you to take photos of your teeth before starting, then compare them after about two weeks. It also gets rid of bad breath.
Extraction should always be the last resort. It should only be recommended when your teeth are damaged beyond repair. So long as the root of your tooth is still intact, try other solutions such as filling, crowning, and root canal therapy. Extraction is mostly suggested by lazy or incompetent dentists. If you start removing teeth, it affects the alignment of the rest. It also becomes harder to implement solutions such as dentures, which need the support of natural teeth.
This is a stupid myth that Hollywood likes perpetuating through its sitcoms. It’s not uncommon for someone to claim that something “hurt like a root canal”. It’s just stupid. Root canal therapy is just as painless as other procedures because you receive anesthesia beforehand. It’s just a little bit more complicated because the dentist removes the entire pulp inside your tooth, fills it, then crowns it.
Had 2 teeth next 2 each other with cavities and one slightly cracked…had them filled…kuna kamabati kanawekwa and they fill the teeth and shapes the filling to the structure but be sure dentist grinds down the fillings until you have a normal chew pattern otherwise utasumbuka…
For wisdom teeth…usually hard to access…better to be removed as they serve no particular function in the mouth and major cause of poor dental hygiene…
Root canal usually recommended for deep cavities…some pain involved but best option all the same…
Also tooth cleaning.(whitening is a totally different cosmetic procedure)involves high pressure water jet. Removes plaque and recommended once a year, can weaken teeth to a minimal extent but gums usually recover…totally recomended when going for a dental visit
@Wanaruona oya niaje… root canal plus cleaning utafanyia talker na bei gani?
Alafu are you an extraction or filling kinda doc, what’s your take on the two?
That’s why I told him to dilute it if it feels irritating. I’ve been using it for at least two years now and my teeth are white as fuck. Once you start achieving positive results, you can reduce the frequency to even once a week. Anyway, if your gums are sensitive I wouldn’t advise you to use it.
Been using hydrogen peroxide for over 7 years now. My dentist gave up on my teeth and I had to find some solution for myself. After scouring the internet, I decided to try h2o2. ALWAYS significantly diluted. The rest is history.
Achana na elders hapa, if you have never visited a dentist enda, fanywa washing, plaque removal, whitening kama iko kombo you cab get braces alafu from there you can take care of your dental health easily, lakini braces take 6-1 year kulainisha meno.
