Bad Breath and Gingivitis
Bad Breath and Gingivitis
by: David Snape
Does this sound familiar to you? My dentist and hygienist mentioned that I had irritated gums as they cleaned my teeth. This is a symptom of gingivitis.
Gingivitis can be a stepping stone to major problems in the mouth and gum line. It can lead to periodontal disease, which is a much more serious problem with the potential for actual bone loss.
Halitosis (bad breath) could be related to a gingivitis infection as both are caused by bacteria. Red,...

Can Eating Certain Foods Help You to Lose Weight?
by: David Snape

The down side is that many of us have a tendency to dress these foods up with cheese, sour cream, butter or other calorie-laden flavor enhancers. This causes the weight loss effect to be lost. It may be difficult to not add extra calories to these foods but with a strong will power it can be done.

Gum Disease And Dental Checkups
About a year ago, my dentist and hygienist said that I had gingivitis. Actually, I suspect that I've had it for over a decade. The interesting thing about gingivitis is that it doesn't make much noise as it slowly erodes your gum tissue. Sometimes, a lot of bone loss can occur before you become aware of it.
What made me pay attention was when the hygienist wanted me to sign a paper that the office would not be responsible if I lost my teeth. At first I saw this as a possible marketing ploy,...

Reversible Pulpitis
The words hung in the air and the implied meaning struck me like a hammer.

I feared that what the dentist wanted to do and what was really necessary were two very divergent realities. Turns out that I was right.
I did my research. The majority of the sources I checked indicated that reversible pulpitis will...
