Oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are tasty as fruits and juices and are packed with vitamin C. But their acid content can erode enamel, making teeth more vulnerable to decay. Even squeezing a lemon or lime into water adds acid to a drink. Plus, acid from the citrus can be bothersome to mouth sores. If you want to get a dose of their antioxidants and vitamins, eat and drink them in moderation at mealtime and rinse with water afterward.

Options for Replacing Missing Teeth - Dental implants
Dental implants are an option when you need to replace a single tooth or when you’re missing several teeth in different areas of your mouth.
This treatment involves surgically mounting a titanium metal post or frame into your upper or lower jaw. A replacement tooth is then mounted to the implant, which allows the tooth to remain in place.
A dental implant provides a permanent base for a replacement tooth.

Does thumb sucking damage teeth?

Not all thumb-sucking results in damage to the teeth or mouth. For example, passively holding the thumb in the mouth doesn’t typically cause damage. However, active thumb sucking with a lot of motion can damage primary (baby) teeth, though this usually corrects itself as the permanent teeth come in. Persistent, vigorous thumb-sucking can sometimes cause misalignment of your child’s permanent teeth and affect the jaw or the shape and roof of the mouth. Thumb sucking may also expose your child to dirt, bacteria, and viruses.

The crunchy potato chips are a favourite snack for most of us out there. Unfortunately, they're loaded with starch, which becomes sugar that can get trapped in and between the teeth and feed the plaque's bacteria. Since we rarely have just one, the acid production from the chips lingers and lasts a while after you've gorged on a bag, floss to remove the trapped particles.

A root canal is performed when the soft inner part of a tooth, known as the pulp, is injured or becomes inflamed or infected.
The crown of the tooth — the part you can see above your gums — can remain intact even if the pulp is dead. Removing injured or infected pulp is the best way to preserve the structure of the tooth.
Common causes of damage to the pulp include:
deep decay due to an untreated cavity
multiple dental procedures on the same tooth
a chip or crack in the tooth
an injury to the tooth (you might injure a tooth if you get hit in the mouth; the pulp can still be damaged even if the injury doesn't crack the tooth)
The most common symptoms of the damaged pulp include pain in your tooth, and swelling, and a sensation of heat in your gums. Your dentist will examine the painful tooth and take X-rays to confirm the diagnosis. Your dentist may refer you to an endodontist if they think you need a root canal.

A professional fluoride treatment
Dentists mostly do professional fluoride treatments with highly concentrated rinse, foam, get, or varnish. Swab, brush, tray, or mouthwash are some of the application treatments used in recent days. Professional fluoride treatments have much more fluoride than what’s in your water or toothpaste. They only take a few minutes to apply. You may ask to avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes after the treatment to absorb fluoride fully. Always give your dentist your full health history so they can choose the right treatments for you.

Movember Canada trying to move beyond the moustache

Now the fundraiser that prompted thousands of men to grow moustaches for a month has a much lower profile and is trying to shift attention away from facial hair to advancing men's health research.
At the peak of Movember's popularity in 2012, it pulled in more than $40 million in donations in Canada to help fight prostate and testicular cancer and people frequently grew mustaches to show that they were part of the fundraising efforts.

Celine Dion is a Canadian songstress known to have one of the best voices in the industry. She is known to have a perfect voice, but she did not have the ideal set of teeth to match her voice before becoming famous. When her career took off in the 1990s, she underwent cosmetic dentistry procedures. Her teeth were misaligned, and they were a bit stained. When she had veneers, her teeth were noticeably uniform in size. And they were whiter, too.
