Plaque build-up
Dr. Robert S Reaves at
Robert S Reaves BSc MS DDS wants patients to be aware of some problems that are
easy to detect from home.
First is
the build-up of plaque, which is a bacteria that is
always being made. Without proper dental hygiene care,
plaque can build up and lead to gum disease. The second,
missing teeth, is one especially easy to detect, but
many times ignored. Dr. Reaves says that missing teeth leads
to drifting and missing one tooth will lead to the loss
of more.
*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and during
dental procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an effort to reduce fear and anxiety, while still maintaining
normal breathing and the ability to respond appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
