			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://c0378172.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/4514_31080581418.jpg" alt="Manual Toothbrush" width="430" height="256" />There are different brushing technique as a cleaning method when using the manual <a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/manual-toothbrush.htm ">toothbrush</a>, which differ in the preparation of the toothbrush and in its direction of motion. Over the preference of this or that method, there are different views and indications, but there are no universally valid as a technique to enforce:</p>
<ul>
<li> Circular (circular), cleaning, modified according to Bass</li>
<li>The Charters Method in gum disease</li>
<li>Vertical (from red to white &#8220;) or plaster, modified according to Stillman</li>
</ul>
<p><span id="more-222"></span><br />
Together these techniques is that they are relatively difficult to learn and perform properly on time. Therefore, it is now increasingly recommended the use of <a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/manual-toothbrush.htm">electric toothbrushes</a>. Even more important than an appropriate technique is the use of regular toothbrush. To ensure that all districts are well cleaned tooth should always be followed a similar pattern:</p>
<p>It starts in the upper right side of the back molars, then clean the outside of the incisors and molars of the other side, then carry on this practice in the same way in the mandible. According to the same classification are then cleaned the inside surfaces of the teeth. Finally, a cleaning of all the chewing surfaces of molars is carried out, are allowed with an exception as &#8220;scrubbing&#8221; motions. For the analysis of Corol cleaners should be now and then stain the teeth after the cleaning to find out as weaknesses in the Z..</p>
<p>The KAI-method:</p>
<p>Not just for kids KAI is also the method recommended. There are first brushed the occlusal surfaces, after which the outer surfaces and inner surfaces of the teeth cleaned thoroughly. The teeth should be cleaned with a small, circular motions. To clean the outer surfaces of the teeth are biting each other.</p>
<p>With proper method and technique are 2x daily for 2-3 minutes enough &#8211; after dinner of course. Longer Putzbemühungen can more harm than good, and they bring forth from the cleaning effect, no more. Too many children and adults is a Zahnputzuhr (eg an hourglass; recommend available in pharmacies) much, because the sense of time in the bathroom like haywire.</p>

<p>What are canker sores?</p>
<p>Canker sores are ulcers about 1 to 2 mm in diameter that develop on the buccal mucosa (mouth, tongue, lips, gums). They appear singly or in groups dispersed.</p>
<p>Each ulcer forms a small crater surrounded by a yellowish-red halo.</p>
<p>Canker sores are not dangerous to health but can be very painful. They are not contagious or infectious<br />
What are the causes?</p>
<p>The origin of canker sores is unknown but there are triggers:</p>
<p>* stress and physical fatigue.</p>
<p>* allergy or food sensitivity. The foods most often implicated are spices, acidic foods, citrus, pineapple, dried fruits and special nuts, tomatoes, alcohol, chewing gum, meat, dairy and gluten.<span id="more-161"></span></p>
<p>* certain nutritional deficiencies. Studies associate the pathos stalactites with deficiencies in iron, folic acid, vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12.</p>
<p>* hormonal changes related to menstrual cycle. Women are also more prone to canker sores as men.</p>
<p>* dentures are inadequate or improper use of the toothbrush.</p>
<p>* Use a toothpaste containing sodium laurel sulfate as detergent agent (all studies are not consistent about this).</p>
<p>* certain drugs.</p>

<p>A good tooth brushing cans primarily good oral hygiene.</p>
<p>So the ideal is at least three times a day and 3 minutes each time. But he must know that to maintain its capital dental also prevents inflammation of the gum, which may promote heart disease (myocardial infarction and stroke).<br />
It is the Congress of the Society for General Microbiology in <strong>Dublin</strong> in 2008 which puts us forward this information.<br />
Professor Howard Jenkinson, University of Bristol, stressed at the meeting of the Society microbial generally that poor maintenance oral could lead to heart problems. The latter said: “bad teeth, bleeding gum and poor <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/dental-hygiene">dental hygiene</a></strong> can cause heart disease. Poor people with poor dental hygiene and those who have not brushed both regularly, causing bleeding gum, will send in the circular system of blood up to 700 different bacteria that are in the mouth, greatly increasing the risk of having a heart attack.”<span id="more-134"></span></p>
<p>The mouth contains many bacteria. Under good conditions of oral health, these bacteria lack the ability to create disturbances in the body. This is because the regular cleaning and proper tooth and gum eliminate bacteria regularly. By cons, if these microbes remain stagnant in the mouth, certain specific bacterial species grow and leads to inflammation of the gum that can be detected by bleeding. Dr. Steve Kerrigan, the College of Surgeons, says that &#8220;the mouth is probably the dirtiest place in the human body.</p>
<p>This process chain ignition is a natural defense the body against the attack of microbes that spread toxins into the gum. To combat them, the cells of the gum will generate inflammatory molecules circulating in the bloodstream, circulating in the local blood vessels and therefore in the general bloodstream. Thus, the concentration of white blood cells combined with that of inflammatory molecules will help in increasing blood circulation and could therefore increase the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke.</p>
<p>This phenomenon is the result of bacteria that will &#8220;stick to the platelets (blood components to clot), causing&#8221; a clotting inside the vessels, not allowing the blood to return to the heart and causing a heart attack.</p>
<p>A New Zealand study led by Professor Greg Seymour goes in the same direction. The result highlights the role of these bacteria in the clogged arteries, or atherosclerosis, head of cardiovascular accidents. These famous bacteria succeed in making aggressive proteins that are not usually within the organization. On contact, the &#8220;stress proteins&#8221; generate an immune response.</p>
<p>Professor Seymour said that &#8220;white blood cells can accumulate in the tissues of the arteries, causing atherosclerosis.&#8221;</p>
<p>Professor Philippe Bouchard, during the 34th interviews Garanciere 2008, said that for him, &#8220;only individuals can suffer from advanced periodontists&#8221; present this risk (enemy advanced periodontists is a disease of the gum widespread throughout the world. The symptoms often go unnoticed because they are neglected. As a result, the disease is rarely diagnosed in time. In fact, <strong>Periodontists</strong> is the degradation of the bones and structures that support the teeth. This infection is often silent painless).</p>
<p>In fact, additional studies will be needed to assess the impact of <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/treatment">periodontal treatment</a></strong> on a possible cardiovascular risk reduction. Anyway, doctors need to remember to brush their teeth three times a day and make an appointment with your dentist twice a year for scaling &#8230;</p>
<p>These predictions were useful for teeth protection. Tobacco and <strong>cholesterol</strong> are not the only perpetrators of the body.</p>
<p>So if you can avoid serious health problems, <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/toothbrush">your toothbrush</a></strong>!</p>

<p>Hygiene in these cases has to be special and rigorous to stop this disease that can lead to loss of our teeth.</p>
<p>Improved hygiene.</p>
<p>Hygiene in these cases has to take care especially since its cause is infection caused by bacterial plaque.</p>
<p>There will be regular brushing, proper <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/dental-hygiene">dental hygiene</a></strong>, proper, ie with a <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/toothbrush">toothbrush</a></strong> and toothpaste and rub on all sides of the teeth.</p>
<p>In the case of <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/periodontal-disease">periodontal disease</a></strong> there, the brush should be placed so that their filaments form an angle of about 45 degrees to the tooth surface supported between the gum and tooth, in which space (sulcus) be made lightly.<span id="more-122"></span></p>
<p>The following minimum perform circular movements and lateral sway. Then place the brush at the same angle but now on the gum and the bristles are rotated toward the edge of the tooth.</p>
<p>The interproximal brush, a partner in Dental Hygiene Periodontal Disease.</p>
<p>Interproximal brushes are used when there is space between your teeth, either because it has lost any parts or loss of alignment or dental rotations. They are used in place of dental floss to ensure the cleanliness of the sides of the teeth.</p>
<p>In cases of advanced periodontal disease will be gaps between the teeth in the area once was covered by the gum. These holes are too big for your flossing alone is effective, it is therefore necessary to use the interproximal brush.</p>

<p>Dental hygiene will enable us to prevent <strong>gum disease</strong> and largely prevent tooth decay. But dental hygiene should be performed in the manner and with the right tools. Furthermore, it must devote the proper time to be effective.</p>
<p>How can we remove the plaque?</p>
<p>The daily plaque removal must be done following a series of steps:</p>
<p>* Cleaning the tongue. In the language accumulate large numbers of bacteria so that their cleaning is necessary to maintain <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/oral-health">oral health</a></strong>. To clean we can rub it gently forward using your toothbrush or use a tongue cleaner.</p>
<p>* Cleaning of the spaces between teeth. The cleaning of the spaces between the teeth (interdentally space) is different depending on the situation. If there is little space between the teeth (it&#8217;s the ideal situation) is used dental floss. If between the teeth enough space (for loss or tooth movement), use a special brush called interproximal brush.<span id="more-113"></span></p>
<p>* Cleaning of the teeth. It is done through the use of toothbrush and toothpaste. With the brushing will remove the remains of not only food but also the invisible plaque. There are several techniques of brushing, which are intended to clean the inner surfaces, outer and chewing.</p>
<p>When we cleanse the teeth?</p>
<p>Ideally, brush your teeth after every meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner). It is imperative to do it thoroughly at least once a day.</p>
<p>The production of saliva and tongue movements helps to remove plaque from the buckle surfaces during wakefulness.</p>
<p>During sleep, decrease the production of saliva and tongue movements, so that favors the formation of plaque if you have not done a <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/dental-hygiene">good dental hygiene</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Thus, we can never forget to brush <strong>your teeth</strong> before bed and if we can only clean the teeth once a day, at this time will be essential.</p>
<p>What we need to cleanse your teeth?</p>
<p>Need to clean their teeth:</p>
<p>* The toothbrush. You must have a rounded head and small to easily reach all teeth. Their filaments are to be smooth and rounded tips to prevent injury to the gums. If using warp wear or not cleaned well, so we must replace this with a new toothbrush. It is estimated that the brushes last about three months in optimal conditions.</p>
<p>* The toothpaste or dentifrice. Contributes to leave us a greater sense of cleanliness. They come in paste or liquid gel or so. They incorporate detergents, and almost all are flavoring agents. With this membership enables us to use dental cleaning and leaves a pleasant feeling clean.</p>
<p>Currently, and given the role as clear that <strong>fluoride</strong> is in preventing <strong><a href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/dental-caries">dental caries</a></strong>, it is desirable to incorporate fluoride toothpaste in its formula since it has a clear role in protecting against caries. There are special pastes on the market to treat tooth sensitivity incorporating <strong>potassium nitrate</strong>.</p>
<p>* Dental floss. It&#8217;s just a thread of silk, ribbon or cord, waxed or not, the use of which ensures clean the sides of the teeth. To use it properly should be made of a series of steps may seem complicated, but in practice they are very simple and we shall see below.</p>
<p>* Interproximal brushes. They are used when there is space between your teeth, either because it has lost any parts or loss of alignment or dental rotations. In this case, are used in place of dental floss to ensure the cleanliness of the sides of the teeth.</p>
<p>How should you be cleaning?</p>
<p>1. With the toothbrush</p>
<p>Apply proper technique and how to use a toothbrush can we facilitate the process of hygiene of the teeth and ensure the cleanliness of all parts.</p>
<p>Learn how to use a toothbrush (includes animations).</p>
<p>2. With dental floss</p>
<p>The use of <strong>dental floss</strong> has its own technique, which should be known for effective cleaning of the teeth and gum damage.</p>

<p>Brushing teeth twice a day with <strong>antibacterial toothpaste</strong> and <a title="toothbrush" href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/toothbrush" target="_blank"><strong>a toothbrush</strong></a> with a built-in tongue cleaner helps eliminate chronic <strong>bad breath</strong>.</p>
<p>This was indicated by a study presented at the 2008 annual meeting of the <em>American Association for Dental Research</em> in Dallas, Texas. <em>Chronic bad breath, or halitosis</em>, usually occurs by the breakdown of bacteria in the mouth, producing substances with a strong sulfur smell.</p>
<p>It is estimated that 25% of adults suffer the embarrassment that causes bad breath and the percentage would reach 50% among older adults. In a study that lasted 28 days and was conducted on 14 adults with halitosis, a team led by Peter Moses, a student at the School of Dentistry at the State University of New York at Buffalo, found that brushing twice daily with a paste containing triclosan and clean the surface of the tongue would solve the problem.</p>
<p>Triclosan is an antibacterial drug is used to treat acne, hand soaps, detergents and deodorants. &#8220;Most toothpastes do not contain triclosan,&#8221; said Dr. Joseph J. Zambon, who participated in the study. Triclosan is found in the pulp Colgate Total, which makes Colgate-Palmolive Co., which funded the study.</p>
<p>At the beginning and end of the study, the researchers measured levels of air <a title="mouth" href="http://www.quidnuncgroup.com/tag/mouth" target="_blank"><strong>in the mouth</strong></a> with the odor-causing bacteria and analyzed samples of tongue scraping for 20 species of bacteria that cause bad breath. According to the authors, brushing teeth twice a day with toothpaste containing triclosan and scraping the tongue with a cleaner reduced levels of bacteria that cause bad breath of about 400 parts per billion at baseline to about 100 parts to 28 days.</p>
<p>All participants solved the halitosis after using the paste containing triclosan and a tongue cleaner, Moses said in a statement from the university. &#8220;The fear of halitosis, known Halitophobia, sometimes is so great that up to 25% of people who say they do not have bad breath,&#8221; said the expert, adding: &#8220;The Halitophobia is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder and even caused suicides, so that effective therapies are needed for this problem.&#8221;</p>
