𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗣 𝗧𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗛 𝗣𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗕𝗘 “J𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗦𝗘𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗘 𝗧𝗘𝗘𝗧𝗛.”

Tooth sensitivity is a symptom; the cause matters.

When dentin becomes exposed, everyday triggers such as cold water, hot coffee, sweet foods or acidic drinks can cause a quick, sharp sensation.

But why is the dentin exposed?

Possible causes include enamel wear, acidic erosion, grinding, aggressive brushing and gum recession. Sensitivity can also occur alongside structural problems such as cracked or chipped teeth, tooth decay or leaking fillings.

That’s why simply buying another toothpaste may not always address the reason your tooth is reacting.

𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 takes a personalised, education-first approach. She can assess your oral hygiene needs, guide you on correct brushing techniques and recommend suitable products for your situation.

If your teeth have started reacting to everyday foods or drinks, don’t ignore the pattern.

Give your mouth the care it truly deserves.

Your morning brush matters.

Christine also takes time to educate you, so you leave knowing more about your own oral health and what you can do at home.

Whether you’re overdue for a clean, caring for an implant or simply want to stay on track, your next step can be simple.

🦷 One appointment can start a better routine.

𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 “𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗟𝗧𝗛𝗬” 𝗗𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗞 𝗠𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗕𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗗𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗧𝗘𝗘𝗧𝗛

That daily soda or energy drink could be doing more than satisfying your thirst.

Acid erosion happens when acids wear away the protective enamel on your teeth. Over time, this can contribute to sensitivity, discolouration and increased risk of decay.

One of the biggest problems is how often your teeth are exposed to acidic drinks.

Sipping an energy drink slowly throughout the day keeps exposing your enamel to acid again and again.

Here’s how to reduce the impact:
🥤 Use a straw when possible
💧 Rinse with water after drinking
🪥 Wait at least 30 minutes before brushing
🍵 Choose water, milk or unsweetened tea more often
🌿 Chew sugar-free gum to help stimulate saliva

Small changes can help protect your enamel for longer.

𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗢𝗙𝗙. 𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗦.

Getting your braces off is exciting, but keeping your new smile looking and feeling its best takes ongoing care.

Here are a few habits that matter after orthodontic treatment:

1. WEAR YOUR RETAINER
Your teeth can shift after treatment. Wearing your retainer as instructed helps maintain your results.

2. DON'T SKIP YOUR ORAL HYGIENE
Brush thoroughly and clean between your teeth every day. If you have a fixed retainer, pay special attention to cleaning around and underneath it, where plaque can collect.

3. WATCH WHAT YOU EAT
Sticky and hard foods can damage orthodontic appliances and retainers. Choose foods that are kinder to your smile.

4. KEEP YOUR RETAINER CLEAN
Clean your retainer regularly according to your orthodontist's instructions.

5. KEEP UP WITH PROFESSIONAL CARE
Regular oral hygiene visits help keep your gums and teeth clean and healthy while you enjoy your new smile.

You've invested time and effort into your smile. Keep looking after it.

Christine Oral Hygiene can help you care for your smile long after orthodontic treatment ends.

Spring is here, and your smile deserves a fresh start too. 🌸

If you’ve been putting off that hygiene appointment, this is your reminder. 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 has two spring specials running until the end of September.

🌸 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗟𝗢𝗪-𝗨𝗣
Book an in-office teeth whitening treatment and receive 𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀 whitening toothpaste plus a 𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀 lip balm.

🌸 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗡-𝗨𝗣
Book a scaling and polishing treatment and receive 𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀 teeth whitening strips.

A professional clean can remove plaque, tartar and surface stains that daily brushing can’t always tackle. Whitening can then help give your smile a brighter, fresher look.

Christine’s approach is gentle, personalised and judgement-free, with your comfort at the centre of every visit.

Don’t let September slip by.

𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗨𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗟 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗬 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗔 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗕𝗟𝗘𝗠 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗢𝗢 𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗘

One of the best things you can teach your child has nothing to do with school.

It is how to care for their smile.

Oral hygiene changes as children grow, so the routine that works for a toddler will not always work for a teenager.

👶 BABY STAGE
Start early. Gently clean the gums and introduce a suitable toothbrush as teeth appear.

🧒 TODDLER TO 6
Keep oral hygiene visits short and positive. Plaque-disclosing tablets can turn brushing into a hands-on lesson by helping children see where they miss plaque.

🧑🎓 TEEN YEARS
Braces and orthodontic treatment often bring a new challenge. Brackets and wires create extra areas where plaque can collect, so teenagers need to adapt their daily cleaning routine.

The goal is not perfect teeth.

It is building healthy habits, confidence and positive experiences from an early age.

💗 Give your child’s smile a head start. Message 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 to book their oral hygiene visit.

TOOTHPASTE ISN’T ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL 🦷

The toothpaste you choose should match what your mouth actually needs.

Sensitive teeth? Look for ingredients designed to reduce sensitivity.

Bleeding or irritated gums? Choose a formula that supports gum health.

Want a brighter smile? Whitening toothpaste can help remove surface stains, but highly abrasive formulas may not be the best choice for everyone.

Cavity protection? Fluoride remains an important option for strengthening enamel and helping prevent decay.

And what about fluoride-free toothpaste with nano-hydroxyapatite?

Both fluoride and nano-hydroxyapatite can support enamel and help protect against decay, but they work in different ways. Your individual needs matter.

There’s also a difference between abrasive and non-abrasive toothpastes. More “scrubbing” doesn’t always mean better cleaning.

The best toothpaste isn’t necessarily the one with the biggest claims on the tube. It’s the one suited to YOUR mouth.

𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 provides personalised oral health education and prevention advice.
