What are the early signs and symptoms of mouth cancer? Cancer can occur in any part of the mouth, on the tongue, lips and in the throat. Sadly, mouth cancer has a very high mortality rate. This is due to late detection. The positive news is that a “precancer” will sometimes form a long time before cancer develops, and if detected early, it can be treated rapidly with an excellent chance of prevention or cure. Some of the early symptoms of mouth cancer include: An ulcer or a sore throat that has persisted longer than three weeks; A white or red patch on the soft tissue, gums, tongue or lining in the mouth; A chronic sore throat or hoarse voice that persists for longer than six weeks; Difficulty in swallowing or a constant feeling that something is caught in the throat; A neck swelling that persists longer than three weeks; Numbness of the tongue or other area of the mouth.
Scientists have discovered that periodontal disease is linked to coronary heart disease and stroke, especially for people who smoke or have high blood pressure. What is the treatment for bad breath? Once we have determined the degree and cause of the breath problem, the treatment can take many forms. If medical problems are found to be the underlying cause of bad breath, proper referral will be made. Recommendations will be made by the dentist to correct and treat any dental disease that is directly related to the breath problem or gum disease. Our hygienist will monitor and chart the condition of your gums before and after root planing and scaling. She will instruct in the best way to brush your teeth and gums and will advise on best devices and products to use as an effective home care program to destruct the volatile sulfur gases. In some patients with high decay rate our hygienist will perform a SALIVA TEST which acts as a screening aide for dental caries and can determine the presence of plaque retentive sites with high bacterial counts.
As an expert dental specialist, Dr Sanei will carry out a full examination including head/neck exam of glands and nodes, muscles of mastication, TMJ (jaw joint) and oral cancer checks, as well as taking important x-rays in order to discover any potential dental problems that may exist and/or arise in the future from your teeth, gums and existing restorations (fillings, crowns etc). Detailed photographs of relevant teeth will be taken and all findings will be discussed with you immediately. If any dental treatment is required, all possible options will be considered and although it would be our duty to recommend the ideal treatment option for you, your personal choices will be listened to and respected. Going forward, any treatment carried out would be with your full and informed consent. See even more info at https://www.dentalperfections.co.uk/.
Worn down teeth? Some people choose to get porcelain veneers to lengthen the apperance of their teeth. Those who suffer with bruxism – a condition which makes you grind, clench or gnash their teeth unconsciously whilst either awake or asleep – often find their teeth wear down over time. This can result in teeth looking much shorter than they are meant to, affecting not only the appearance of your smile, but also potentially your ability to bite and chew.
