For some people, it seems like a dental rite of passage that their wisdom teeth will come out. While your dentist may recommend wisdom tooth extraction during a general check-up, the procedure is not always necessary. In fact, extraction should generally only be done when a wisdom tooth has decayed beyond repair or if the tooth causes excessive pain and other symptoms.
On the other hand though, wisdom teeth that don’t cause any discomfort aren’t necessarily completely healthy. To determine...
Oral hygiene is not limited to brushing and flossing twice daily. It’s an all-round approach that involves watching what you eat, going for routine dental examinations, getting your teeth professionally cleaned and treating minor tooth problems. If you neglect your teeth, you will have excessive tartar formation, which could lead to bacterial infections, gum disorders, deep cavities and in some cases an increased risk of developing cancer.

Did you know that a certain percentage of people don’t have wisdom teeth? Or not all four at least. Wisdom teeth are your third molars that appear by the time you are in your late teens or early twenties for some – there are normally four wisdom teeth, two in the upper jaw and two in the lower. They often come out or “erupt” at an angle or remain impacted in the gum, causing them to become infected and...
Teeth may play an important role in our everyday lives, but they’re also important fossils that have helped researchers learn about our ancestors and evolution. A study which began in 2007 in Finland resulted in the creation of a new mathematical formula that can be used to trace human teeth development. Specifically, this formula can identify why some people are born without wisdom teeth. The same formula will be used by researchers to determine how developmental mechanisms function in...
Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for one's teeth in order to keep them healthy and mitigate future issues.

A positive relationship with the dentist from an early age helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear and aids the early diagnosis of other teeth issues.
By promoting the dentists’ chair as a good place and not one to be...
At any age, teething is painful, but wisdom tooth pain can be especially uncomfortable. Unlike regular teething, the pain associated with wisdom teeth coming through can be caused by a range of problems within the tooth or your jawbone. That’s why it’s important to understand why your wisdom teeth are causing you pain and also why it’s essential to your health to have treatment for wisdom tooth pain.

Teaching your kids good dental habits from an early age will mean brighter smiles and healthier oral hygiene overall.
Even though their baby teeth will eventually be replaced with adult teeth, that first set of primary teeth will impact how well their permanent teeth will turn out.
Here are some tips to follow to make sure your kids’ teeth are getting proper care and attention, and stay healthy and strong:
The dangerous effects of alcohol and smoking on our general health and internal organs are well documented. But the health of our teeth and gums is also greatly affected.
The large amount of chemicals present in nicotine and the acidity of alcohol can damage your gingival tissue and greatly increase your risk of oral cancer. People with poor dental hygiene habits are even more likely to develop these serious and unpleasant conditions.
