Frequently asked questions

My gums bleed when I brush my teeth. What should I do?

Healthy gums don't normally bleed. Bleeding during brushing can be one of the signs of gum inflammation. You shouldn't stop brushing just because it bleeds - keep gently cleaning your teeth and come to our clinic for a gum examination.

Does professional tartar cleaning (scaling) scratch tooth enamel?

Professional tartar cleaning done with the correct technique and appropriate instruments doesn't scratch tooth enamel. During the procedure, hardened tartar and plaque buildup stuck to the tooth surface are removed. Tartar that isn't cleaned can, over time, cause gum disease and loss of the supporting bone.

I get my tartar cleaned, but it comes back again after a few months. Why?

Tartar reforming can depend on the composition of your saliva, the alignment of your teeth, smoking, and your brushing technique. When soft plaque on the tooth surface isn't cleaned well enough, it can harden with minerals in the saliva and turn back into tartar.

My gums bleed when I bite into something hard. Is this dangerous?

Gum bleeding during biting or brushing can be a sign of gum inflammation. In its early stages, it can be brought under control with professional cleaning and correct oral care. If neglected, the disease can progress and damage the bone that supports the teeth.

What causes bad breath?

Bad breath can be caused by decay, food debris trapped between teeth, bacteria on the tongue, ill-fitting fillings or crowns, and gum disease. Through a detailed examination, the source of the odor can be identified and appropriate treatment planned.

How can I tell whether my bad breath comes from my stomach or my teeth?

The large majority of bad breath originates in the mouth and teeth. If the odor continues despite tartar cleaning, treating cavities, tongue cleaning, and regular oral care, a referral can be made to an ENT, internal medicine, or gastroenterology specialist.
