If you should spot any of the conditions shown, please make an immediate dental appointment. It also should go without saying, that it is highly recommended you see a dentist on a regular basis.

What is, "A regular basis?" Every six months, or more often if your dentist makes that suggestion.

Mouth Check

For many... pain was the major telltale sign that a dental appointment was needed to be made. Bleeding gums were not a significant warning, because some people just didn't know if they had cut their gums a little or what. Now, with the help of computers, we will be able to show you some of the warning signs, you, yourself, can see. Education is your best ally so you will easily know what you're looking for. All you have to do, from time to time, is to take a look at our page and call a dentist when you see you're having a problem.

SWOLLEN GUMS
CAVITIES AND DECAY
TARTAR AND PLAQUE

If you see or think you see any of these conditions in your mouth or your child's mouth, you will be smart by quickly making a dental appointment. Of course, PREVENTION is always better than cure. If you know you have a condition that a dentist should treat, the sooner the better is always the best way to go.

HomeDental.com wants you to know that if you see the presence of tartar around the gum line of your tooth or teeth, please call your dentist so he or she can examine your mouth and take an x-ray to make sure there is not a periodontal pocket or infection down below the gum line.

What is a periodontal pocket?

This is a crevice where the gum tissue has "detached" from the tooth. If left unattended by a dentist, this "pocket" will:

(1.) Trap food and cause a terrible breath problem,
(2.) Continue to get worse.
(3.) Possibly cause you to loose the tooth needlessly.

When you order a HomeDental.com Dental Hygiene Kit, and when you first begin to use it, look to see if your teeth have tooth decay or a build up of tartar that SHOULD BE removed by the dentist. If so, please have those items fixed then use your special dental instruments to maintain that fresh from the dentist clean feeling.

Remember, before tartar hardens or calcifies, there will be no need to scrape. Just a light touch of the dental scraper in the areas that your toothbrush missed is necessary. Most likely that will be around the salivary gland areas (molars), and the lower anterior or front teeth both upper and lower.

Give all your teeth a GOOD CLEANING, with the HomeDental.com scaler at least once per month or when you feel the need.

Those who think they may wait until their next dental appointment to get their teeth cleaned. THINK OF THIS. All of the bacteria that are living in your mouth for six months are DOING DAMAGE, not to mention giving you bad breath.

If you had an infection in your arm, would you wait 6 months to see your doctor? Most likely not, and your teeth deserve the same attention. IF YOU KEEP WAITING, someday you will be the proud owner of an expensive, and painful abscessed tooth, root canal, and/or false tooth. Teeth are meant to last a lifetime, and they can if you give them the attention they deserve.

We recommend using the Natural Bristle Toothbrush, Flosser and the Complete Dental Hygiene Kit associated with this site to keep teeth clean.
