(ORTHODONTIC PATIENTS) 😍

Para sa successful na treatment, paki-basa po ang mga sumusunod. Please note na hindi po for fashion or status symbol ang braces, form of treatment po sya. 🤣🥰

1. 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸.
Kahit may dentist na nag-aalaga sa’yo, ikaw pa rin ang key sa success ng treatment mo. Your dentist will guide you—but your daily habits make the biggest impact. 🤭

2. 𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗹.
Ugaliing mag-toothbrush pagkatapos kumain. Food easily gets stuck in brackets and wires, which can lead to cavities and gum disease. 🪥

3. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗱𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆.
These tools clean the spots your toothbrush can’t reach. Kahit nakakatamad minsan, kailangan ito para maiwasan ang sira. 🦷

4. 𝗔𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘆, 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱.
These can break your brackets or bend wires. Say no to chewing gum, popcorn, and hard candy. 🍭

5. 𝗔𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗱𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.
Walang absent kay Doc! Missed appointments delay your progress and might cause setbacks. 🥲

6. 𝗥𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆.
It kills bacteria, reduces plaque, and keeps your breath fresh. 🦠

7. 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝘂𝗯𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱.
Sundin ang bilin ni Doc sa pagsuot ng elastics. Wearing them incorrectly or forgetting delays the alignment process. 🪢

8. 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆.
Check for loose brackets or poking wires. Agad ipaalam kung may nasira o masakit. 🕵️‍♂️

9. 𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀.
Avoid biting nails, opening packaging, or chewing on pens. Masisira ang braces mo at masasaktan ka pa. 🛠️

10. 𝗔𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗻𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀.
Sugar causes plaque buildup and tooth decay—especially around brackets. Choose water and tooth-friendly snacks instead. 🥤

11. 𝗕𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁.
Hindi minamadali ang perfect smile. Proper care shortens treatment time and gives the best results. 🤩

Replacing Missing Teeth

Paano alagaan ang oral health? Ganito yun!!!

Happy National Dental Health Month!

Ito ay mga central incisors hindi ng 20 years old or 30 or 50 or even 60 kundi ng isang 11 year old child, and yes permanent teeth po ito. Yes, wala nang papalit dito. ‘Edi doc bungi na po sya?’ Yes bungi na sya sa front. And yes, magpupustiso na sya dahil hindi pa po pwede i fixed bridge ang ganitong edad. What is alarming here is that at a very young age, the patient already needs to wear dentures to restore the missing teeth. 🥹

Actually sa practice ko, napapansin ko na pabata ng pabata ang mga pasyente ko who need extraction of their permanent teeth, not because ito na lang ang solusyon ha? We can always do pulp therapy. But because this is the only solution na pasok sa budget ng ibang patients. And also they are not well informed about treatments like root canal, pulpotomy and even pulpectomy. 🦷

What can we do to avoid this situation? Early detection and prevention. By what? Brushing, flossing, regular cleaning, and dental check up. Establishing a routine sa bahay is also very important, that’s why you should start them young! Alongside the Oral Hygiene routine, it is essential to visit your dentist to prevent gum disease and cavities from forming. Itong 2 ito (cavity & gum disease) ang mga rason kung bakit maaga at mabilis nasisira ang ngipin natin. 🪥

So when is the first visit ba dapat ng anak ninyo sa dentist? It is when the first tooth erupts. Para di confusing, kahit atleast 1 year old si baby. We can do brushing, fluoride application, and dental check up!

Early prevention is the key to having a perfect and healthy set of teeth even after you’re 70! This is a sign na no! Book your appointments now! 🦷

‼️

Sa halagang 500 pesos, may instant braces na agad si Renz! Nabili niya ito sa palengke at siya pa mismo ang nagkabit gamit lang ang nail cutter at super glue. Pero makalipas ang isang linggo, ang kanyang mga ngipin… biglang sumakit! Mag-iingat po tayo sa DIY braces at retainers, mga Kapuso! Panoorin ang video. #KMJS

Book an appointment ne before "baby kisses" 😅

PA-CLEANING MUNA BAGO 'BABY KISSES' 😌💋

Siguraduhin malinis ang ngipin bago mag-bebe time, ha? 😘

Magpa-schedule na sa iyong dentist to make every moment extra sarap and kilig with a fresh, kissable smile! 😁

Well-restored teeth are still the best. 😉
