Dental pain is usually only experienced quite late, when the tooth is already in an advanced state of destruction with a large cavity.

Bacteria adversly affect the health of the tooth's nerve resulting in severe pain.

The pain is not a warning signal to treat the tooth, it is often too late for that, we may regard the pain as a "lesson" to encourage early dental treatment, before more such destruction occurs.

After 30 years as a dental surgeonI am adept 

at locating the source of the pain quickly and 

doing all that is neccesary to relieve the pain fast. 

and so I  took this opportunity to explain and recommend 

treatment  and preventive methods to avoid any dental pain in the future.

I decided to bring all the relevent and important subjects together 

in this section related to preventing all types of tooth and gum diease.

                    

A combination of oral hygiene care, balanced diet and preventive treatment at home and in the dental office,

can together prevent nearly all dental and gum dieases

and enable healthy functional teeth all through life.
