Here are some interesting dental fun facts about brushing your teeth.

DID YOU KNOW...the first signs of a toothbrush being used by human beings dates back to 3500 B.C. in ancient Egypt. Cool right!!!

Our teeth are like fingers prints. They carry significant clues about our overall health, including periods of stress or illness we have endured.

If you have a toothache, here are some of the best home remedies for relief:

1. Salt Water Rinse-Rinse with this solution 4-5 times daily to reduce inflammation and contract the tissues.
2. Grab a Pillow-Keeping your head elevated at all times can reduce the excess blood flow to the inflamed tooth that can make swelling increase and pain feel worse.
3. Keep the Area Cold-Ice works great to keep the toothache area cold and reduce swelling.
4. Garlic Paste-Garlic has medicinal and anti-bacterial properties that can kill dental bacteria that cause plaque, while also serving as an effective pain reliever.
5. Peppermint Tea-Some studies have shown that peppermint tea has antioxidant and antibacterial properties and can help in numbing painful areas.
6. Knotted Floss- You’ll find out pretty quickly if your pain is caused by a bit of food by knotting a piece of floss and flossing it through your teeth. Flossing it out will result in almost immediate relief.

FALSE. As you age, your mouth changes and the nerves in your teeth become less sensitive to pain. This means that you may not experience soreness or tenderness from tooth decay or gum disease. If you think you have a dental emergency, please call or email us today!
