Most of us are very reluctant about our health. We tend to go to the doctor only when our health is causing acute problems otherwise we just ignore it. On top of this we take no care of our teeth and gum. We completely ignore them. Most of us run to the dentist when we either face a gum pain or we spot bleeding teeth. Gum diseases are a problem and most of us face it at some part of our life. There are various reasons to why we have gum problems. Gum diseases or common factors of periodontal diseases are faced by those who have poor oral cleanliness and sometimes it may be genetic too. Gum disease is a situation where we have a swell in gum and an infection spread in the roots and the surrounding areas of the teeth. It begins with the accumulation of plaque. The accumulation of plaque on the teeth is due to the result of the regular food intake which mixes with the saliva and the remains various foods in the mouth. It is very crucial to get rid of the plague because if it is not taken out then it takes the form of tartar which is more difficult to get rid of. Removing of tartar needs professional help like the assistance of a dentist. If this is not extracted the problem goes on increasing. It will turn to what is known as “Gingivitis”. It is the inflammation of the gums which spreads to infect the deeper imbedded tissues and bones. These diseases if not checked on time becomes difficult to handle and spreads. Thus these are the causes of periodontal diseases. Another common dental problem is bad breath. It affects the day to day life of people. The offensive odor makes it difficult and unpleasant for people who are coming in close contact. Many a times peoples bad breath can lead to psychological trauma. The oral area or the mouth has different kind of bacterias which acts on the proteins of the food to clean them. In this process they result in formation of gases like hydrogen sulphide, cadaverin etc which leads to bad breath. One of the causes of this is insufficient oral cleanliness. Regular brushing of teeth, tongue cleanup and gargling help to get rid of bad breath. Bad breath is normally common in the morning. When one is sleeping saliva is not produced which has got antibacterial properties helping to keep the mouth clean. Some of the other bad breath causes are tonsillitis, liver problems, lung diseases, diseases in the salivary gland and intestinal diseases. There are some brushing techniques which be religiously followed by people . To keep away from dental problems a person should brush at least twice a day. It is better to use a toothpaste which has fluoride as an ingredient. A very little amount of toothpaste should be used.
