1. EVALUATION OF TEETH & GUMS

Teeth are evaluated for attrition, abrasion, erosion on abfraction.  The upper layer of i.e. enamel of the teeth can be worn out due to the kind of food we eat on excessive masticatory faces gums or the gingiva is a very important hart of the oral cavity and plays a crucial role in holding the teeth in place. Gums are checked for inflammation, or any kind of bleeding, or are there any pockets. The present the mobility of the teeth is also evaluated.

2. EVALUATION OF SENSITIVE TEETH & THEIR TREATMENT

Teeth can because sensitive due to wearing off of the upper layer i.e. enamel and further wearing off of dentin. This can happen due to abnormal masticatory faces, or due to the acidic foods we eat which can cause erosion. Treatment includes desensitization pastes or gets or fluoride or varnish application.

3. PLAQUE & CALCULUS EVALUATION

Plaque is a sticky, colorless film which from on teeth, made by bacteria interact with surgery and starchy foods, plaque is formed. It get rid of plaque, tooth brushing and rises with worm water and mouth washes can be used. It plaque stays on the tooth surface for a longer time, it hardens in to a stone like substance, called calculus. This calculus cannot be removed by brushing for removing it, a dental procedure called scaling is required. If calculus is not removed on time, it detaches the gingiva from the teeth, hence weakening the teeth and making them mobile.

4. PATIENT EDUCATION ON HOW TO MAINTAIN ORAL HYGIENE

A lot of patients bush regularly, but they do not know the correct brushing method, this harming their teeth and gums. Many foods used commonly nowadays are soft foods which do not help the children to develop strong jaw bones and teeth. Children should be educated to eat hard foods so that teeth and gums become stronger. Preventive measles can also be done to prevent further damage of gums and teeth by use of fluoride and varnish application. Scaling is also a preventive measure to save the gums from any further damage. Bone and gums grafting surgical procedure are also done for the treatment of alveolar bone and gingival loss.
