While Vacationing on Long Island Gum Disease Could by Stalking Your Mouth

Travel is by far one of the coolest things Americans enjoy year after year. For some planning that summer vacation is drawn out process of coordinating and rotating hot spots and so much more. Whether you prefer that 10 day cruise or lounging on the beach at Long Island gum disease risk factors are tagging along for the ride.

Gum disease just might be one of the sneakiest diseases taunting Americans worldwide. That’s because it starts in the background without any symptoms to warn you. The disease begins with plaque build on the surface of your teeth that result in tiny pockets along the gum line.

These pockets then serve as the perfect habitat for bacteria that causes gum disease. Perhaps the most amazing part is the speed in which this all takes place. Within a two week time span the bacteria in your mouth can more than double if you neglect your oral care in the slightest way.

As you prepare for that fun filled vacation, be sure to follow these pointers to ensure the health of your gums when you return:

  • Store your toothbrushes in travel containers that have holes for proper air circulation. This allows the brush to thoroughly dry and discourage the growth of bacteria
  • Store toothbrushes separately to prevent the spread of bacteria
  • Thoroughly clean and disinfect the travel containers before and after your trip
  • Regularly disinfect your toothbrush while on vacation or at home by washing it in the dishwasher, storing in the fridge or place it in a cup of mouthwash
  • When traveling abroad brush with bottled water and keep your toothbrush 2-5 feet from the sink and toilet to avoid water contamination
  • Always pack extra oral care supplies in case you can’t purchase them
  • If you don’t have toothpaste, brush with water to remove food and bacteria
  • If you forget your toothbrush and are unable to purchase a new one floss and rinse with mouthwash
  • Don’t share a toothbrush because oral bacteria can be passed from one family member to another

There’s no excuse for letting your oral health decline while on vacation. Stay on top of your oral routine and monitor your mouth closely. If you notice signs of gum disease or any unusual changes you are unsure about contact your dental practitioner right away.

If you dealing with Long Island gum disease Dr. Scharf treats gum disease with a laser, not a scalpel, for people looking for an alternative to gum surgery. Call Dr. Scharf at 631-661-6633 or visit him on the web at http://drscharf.com.


Smoking and Corrective Surgery with a Periodontist Long Island

With each passing week that you notice your gums appear to be “pulling” away from your teeth leaving much of the tooth root exposed. You schedule an appointment with your dentist to find out why. Right away your dentist recognizes a need to see the Periodontist Long Island to treat your receding gums to ensure the long-term health of your teeth. Although treatment is simple enough smokers have a lower risk of success.

A recent study published in the Journal of Periodontology evaluated 10 smokers and 10 non-smokers over the course of two years after receiving cosmetic treatment of re-covering the tooth roots after recession. The study’s objective was to monitor the effects of smoking on the long-term outcome of their treatment. The results showed that residual gum recession around the area, which received the surgery, was higher with

Any smoker that has received extensive dental work have heard the “no smoking for at least 24 hours” recommendation, and many smokers mocked their dentists and lit up immediately following their procedure. However when it comes to cosmetic surgery practitioners warn that the consequence can get pricey and should not be taken lightly be even the luckiest of smokers.

So why is treating receded gums so important? That’s simple, when the gums have pulled away from the tooth more of the root is exposed leaving the tooth vulnerable to disease and decay. That tooth’s survival depends on correcting the cause of the current recession in the first place.

Whether it is caused by bacteria, new facial piercings or some other cause your Periodontist will treat the area of recession to remove bacteria and plaque build-up to put a stop to further recession. Then you could choose to undergo another procedure to replace the full coverage of the gum over the tooth root.

This is where smoking comes into play. Restoring the coverage of the gum can be very costly, an expense that may not be worth your efforts if you’re willing to throw it all away for smoking. The study showed that 50% of smokers lost between .5mm to 1mm over the course of 2 to 24 months. For this reason it is crucial to develop a stop smoking program prior to undergoing corrective surgery.

If you’ve noticed that your gums have begun to recede and you’d like a skilled opinion from a Periodontist Long Island contact Dr. Scharf at (631) 661-6633 or visit him on the web at http://drscharf.com. He offers alternative treatments for your periodontal needs including laser therapy.


Periodontist on Long Island Emphasizes Importance of Daily Flossing

Protecting our mouths against tooth decay and gum disease is nothing new in the world of oral health. The importance of regular brushing, types of toothbrushes to use, how to floss, the type of floss to use, frequency and so on is continuously brought to our attention. In spite of all this direction Periodontist on Long Island still find themselves treating patients with gum disease on a regular basis. According to a recent study of 51 twins this could be due to the continued view that flossing isn’t necessary.

The study was conducted at the New York University and observed 51 sets of twins ranging from age 12 to 21. Each twin was randomly assigned a two-week oral care regimen where one twin brushed with a manual toothbrush and toothpaste while the other brushed with a manual toothbrush and toothpaste as well as flossed.

At the end of the study samples were taken from each participant to determine how much bacteria was present in the mouth. The results showed that those who did not floss had higher levels of bacteria when compared to those who did, indicating that floss plays a critical role in your oral health.

The significance of bacteria growth in the mouth lies with an understanding of the true causes of gum disease. Gum disease begins with an excessive amount of plaque forming on the teeth near the gum line. This plaque harbors bacteria as it grows. The gums then react to the bacteria with signs of inflammation, bleeding, redness, and eventually loose teeth.

Brushing alone only removes part of the plaque, leaving what hides between, and often behind the teeth. When used properly floss removes the traces of plaque left behind by the toothbrush. This study emphasizes two things, first that flossing removes the excess plaque better than a toothbrush alone and second the speed at which the plaque begins to build

When it comes to the health of your mouth there’s no replacement. Take extra steps to ensure long-lasting health. If you notice signs of gum disease contact a local Periodontist right away. Dr. Scharf treats gum disease with a laser, not a scalpel, for people who need a Periodontist on Long Island and want an alternative to gum surgery call Dr. Scharf at 631-661-6633 or visit him on the web at http://drscharf.com.


Long Island Periodontist Helps Protect from the Spread of Disease

Bacteria are microscopic organisms that love to invade dark, moist environments for re-population. This bacterium come in many shapes and can lead to a plethora of illnesses when populating the human body, including gum disease. It is for this reason that we do our best to maintain good oral hygiene and follow the recommendations of our Long Island Periodontist. Yet no matter how good our efforts are they will be of little benefit if we neglect our toothbrushes!

You read correctly. Your toothbrush is the perfect environment for many bacteria to grow. When you brush your toothbrush removes bacteria from the teeth and gums. As your toothbrush sit in the holder bacteria floating around the room settle in and make themselves at home, making your toothbrush a carrier of infection and the spreader of disease.

In addition to the spread of illness harmful bacteria that lead to gum disease may be lurking in there too, waiting for us to swish that brush around our warm moist mouth. Yet with all those harmful bacteria potentially inhabiting our toothbrush how can we confidently brush those pearly whites? After all, our goal is to remove harm not replace it!

There are a few simple measures you can take to reduce the growth of bacteria on your toothbrush:

  • Never share your toothbrush
  • Replace your toothbrush every 3 – 4 months
  • Do not share or re-use disinfectants used to clean toothbrushes
  • Wash your hands before and after you brush
  • Do not allow the toothpaste tube to touch your toothbrush
  • Avoid using community toothbrush holders or at least ensure that the toothbrushes do not touch each other
  • Don’t store your toothbrush in a closed, airtight container
  • Clean the area you store your toothbrush in often
  • Store your toothbrush in an upright position and allow it to dry

When considering the health of your gums don’t neglect the role your toothbrush plays. Make sure to keep it clean and maintained to reduce the risks of gum disease and the spread of infection.

If you notice changes in the health of your gums schedule a detailed evaluation with your Long Island Periodontist. For patients seeking an alternative approach to treatment contact Dr. Scharf at (631) 661-6633 or visit him on the web at http://drscharf.com . He can treat gum disease with a laser rather than a scalpel.
