Dental Bonding and Cosmetic Dentistry
Besides being great for cavity fillings, composite resin is also used for dental bonding. Dental bonding and cosmetic dentistry is a good way to fix certain problems you may have with your teeth. A little dental bonding can help change the entire look of your smile. You could wind up with perfect looking teeth! This procedure will last anywhere from seven to eleven years, depending on how well you take care of your teeth. The composite resin comes in many different teeth-colored shades, so it will blend in and match your natural teeth.

Are you interested in dental bonding and cosmetic dentistry? If so, a dentist can assist you on deciding the options which best suit your needs. Locate a dentist in your area today!

TMJ

July 23, 2008 – 9:36 am

 There are two matching temporomandibular joints — one on each side of your head, located just in front of your ears. The abbreviation “TMJ” literally refers to the joint but is often used to mean any disorders or symptoms of this region.

Many TMJ-related symptoms are caused by the effects of physical and emotional stress on the structures around the joint. These structures include:

• Cartilage disk at the joint
• Muscles of the jaw, face, and neck
• Nearby ligaments, blood vessels, and nerves
• Teeth

For example, daily stress can lead you to clench and grind your teeth, both during the day and at night while you sleep. Clenching means you tightly clamp your top and bottom teeth together, especially the back teeth. The stressful force of clenching causes pressure on the muscles, tissues, and other structures around your jaw.

Many people who clench also grind their teeth. Grinding is when you slide your teeth over each other, generally in a sideways, back-and-forth movement. This action may wear down your teeth and can be noisy enough at night to bother sleeping partners.

Poor posture can also be an important factor in TMJ. For example, holding the head forward while looking at a computer all day strains the muscles of the face and neck.

Other factors that might make TMJ symptoms worse are stress, poor diet, and lack of sleep.

Dental phobia is the serious, often paralyzing fear of seeking dental care. It has been reliably reported that 50% of the American population does not seek regular dental care. An estimated 9-15% of all Americans avoid much needed care due to anxiety and fear surrounding the dental experience. This translates to some 30 - 40 million people so afraid of dental treatment that they avoid it altogether.

In terms of your dental health and overall well-being, this can have serious ramifications. Besides chronically infected gums and teeth which can affect your medical status, your ability to chew and digest can be seriously compromised. Without healthy gums and teeth, your speech can be affected as well. Your self confidence can be compromised if you are insecure about your breath and smile. This can lead to serious limitations in both your social and business environments
