In this post we explain how we can reverse this sensitivity thanks to the new acquisition of an effective and exclusive device.

Dental hygiene or cleaning are treatments focused on the prevention of oral problems. With dental hygiene we remove bacterial plaque and dental calculus (or calculus) that cause tooth decay and periodontal problems such as gingivitis or periodontitis (or pyorrhea).

At Vilarrasa Clínica Dental we attach great importance to the prevention of problems that may arise in the mouth. This is why we recommend dental cleanings with a certain frequency depending on the risk profile of each patient. However, a good percentage of patients do not follow these recommendations due to the sensitivity they suffer from. A sensitivity that increases during hygiene due to the vibration and the temperature of the water.

To improve the comfort and reduce the sensitivity of our patients during dental hygiene, we have incorporated Vilarrasa Clinica Dental | Girona the AIRFLOW® Prophylaxis Master. This new device, developed in Switzerland by the EMS research center, has high precision and an excellent design. One of the great advantages it presents is the water heating system to receive a warm and comfortable treatment, as well as it also allows to remove bacterial plaque and dental stains very effectively.

Tips to maintain a healthy mouth

Many patients ask us which brush should be used at home to maintain a healthy mouth and thus avoid the appearance of cavities or gum inflammation (gingivitis or periodontitis). At Vilarrasa Clínica Dental we explain it to our patients when they ask us, but especially on dental hygiene day we emphasize it a lot. In this blog we explain it:
  1. Powered/manual brush
    If you have been brushing your teeth all your life with a manual brush and your hygiene is correct and the condition of your gums is adequate, you can continue brushing with the manual. If you have sensitive gums, you may need a manual brush with soft filaments. The brushing technique is very important – recommending the Bass technique, and also the frequency and duration (twice a day during two minutes).
    But, if you have difficulty brushing your teeth and your oral hygiene is not adequate, we definitely recommend the electric brush. Recent studies show that it is more effective when it comes to controlling the levels of bacterial plaque and gingival inflammation. The most important thing about an electric toothbrush is to display a pressure sensor to prevent gum recession and that the brush head adapts to your needs. The brushing technique also changes – you will have to brush tooth by tooth leaving the brush resting between the tooth and the gum and without forgetting the contact surfaces of the teeth.
  2. Dental floss or interdental brush
    Many patients brush their teeth correctly, but do not use dental floss and interdental brush regularly. Actually, dental floss or an interdental brush are essential to prevent tooth decay and gum inflammation. Dental floss is usually used when there are no open (or black) spaces between the teeth, while the interdental brush is recommended when there is a space between teeth caused by bone and gum loss. It is suggested to do it once a day.
  3. Mouthwash
    We always explain that rinsing daily with some disinfectant mouthwash can complement hygiene, but in no case is it a substitute for everything we have previously explained. Rinsing disinfectant products allows us to clean not only the surfaces of the teeth but also reduce the bacterial load of bacteria reservoirs such as the cheek, tonsils or tongue. Mouthwashes recommended for daily use do not usually present significant local adverse effects and can be used safely. They will also help keep your mouth much fresher.

We hope these lines are useful so you can keep your mouth healthy! Any doubt you may have, we will be happy to assist you in the clinic and resolve it. Finally, it should be noted that patients with orthodontics, dental implants or fixed prostheses need slightly different instructions that we will explain in another post as soon as we can.

Step by step in the placement of dental implants. Explains it to you Dr. Vilarrasa, specialist in periodontics and oral implantology

Dental implants are a successful solution to replace missing teeth, restoring chewing and aesthetic function. They are comfortable, resistant and safe. Dr Javi Vilarrasa, our specialist in Implantology, uses implants of the highest quality and guarantee. He relies minimally invasive and painless techniques.

The steps to follow to perform a dental implant treatment are as follows:
  1. Diagnosis
    To assess the placement of dental implants, it is essential to carefully analyze the following points:
    1. Check the state of your mouth
    2. Evaluate the amount of bone in height and width using a 3D radiograph such as CBCT (CT with less radiation).
  2. Placement of an implant
    The placement of the dental implant is a simple and painless surgical procedure, especially with the use of splints that guide the position of the implant.
  3. Scarring
    After implant placement, the implant must fully integrate with the bone. Usually this period is 2 months. If the situation allows, an immediate provisional loading can be performed on the day of implant placement so that the patient does not leave without teeth.
  4. Final crown placement
    Once healed we will take some records to make the final crown. After three weeks you will already have the crown in place and you can start chewing normally.
  5. Maintenance and review
    To ensure a successful and long-lasting treatment, it is essential to follow the check-up and oral hygiene visits that the doctor has recommended to keep your teeth and implants healthy.

Dr. Javi Vilarrasa explains it to you https://clinicavilarrasa.com/en/when-can-you-need-a-gum-graft-dr-javi-vilarrasa-explains-it-to-you/ https://clinicavilarrasa.com/en/when-can-you-need-a-gum-graft-dr-javi-vilarrasa-explains-it-to-you/#respond Mon, 11 Jul 2022 13:26:01 +0000 https://clinicavilarrasa.com/when-can-you-need-a-gum-graft-dr-javi-vilarrasa-explains-it-to-you/

When can you need a gum graft? Dr. Javi Vilarrasa explains it to you

A gingival graft may be necessary when one or more gingival recessions are clinically observed. Recession or retraction of the gums causes the loss of gums around the tooth, which can lead to various problems of sensitivity, aesthetics and inflammation. Although sometimes they go unnoticed by the patient, gum recessions have a high risk of progressing over time, thus weakening the support of the tooth. Gum grafts are minimally invasive surgeries performed by our periodontist in Barcelona and Girona, Dr. Javi Vilarrasa, in which the gum is normally transferred from a donor area to the area to be treated to recover the lost gum and improve the prognosis of the tooth. There are several types of gum grafts, such as epithelialized free gingival graft, connective tissue graft, connective tissue graft substitutes or pedicle flaps. Each type of gum graft can be recommended depending on the depth of the recession, the quality of the gums, the number of recessions to be treated, among others. Once the surgery is done, it is very important to follow very simple post-operative instructions that will be indicated to ensure a successful and painless intervention. The application of ice, stability in the operated area, anti-inflammatory medication and chlorhexidine rinses are recommended to disinfect the surgical area. Also, it is essential to carry out periodic follow-up – especially the first 3 months – to control the clinical outcome of the surgery and to resume regular brushing in the intervened area. At Vilarrasa Clínica Dental we have Dr. Javi Vilarrasa, a specialist in Periodontics. Dr. Vilarrasa has extensive experience in performing gum grafts, always using microsurgical instruments and with the help of magnifying loupes so as not to lose any detail during the intervention and carefully manipulate the tissues. He is the author of scientific publications related to gum grafting and teaches university classes and courses on this subject.
