An in-office procedure, that is, an appointment with your doctor, is an effective way to make your smile truly white. The hygienists and therapists at each of ROOTT's clinics use innovative ways to make your teeth whiter - laser and oxygen.

At the same time, we remind you that both the doctor and the patient are responsible for the result of whitening. Even if everything is done perfectly, you can easily spoil the effect if you do not adhere to the doctor's recommendations.

Fluorosis is a chronic pathology of tooth enamel that occurs due to an increased concentration of fluoride in the body. It is manifested by the formation of spots, defects of different size, color, and shape on the enamel. The disease is epidemic in nature. Dental fluorosis is characteristic of areas with excessive fluoride content in drinking water. Also, workers of some industrial enterprises (plants for the production of aluminum, laser equipment, etc.) are susceptible to the disease, due to the increased content of fluoride compounds in the air.

Fluoride is an element that enters the body with water, vitamin supplements, foods, air. It takes part in the formation of dental and bone tissue, strengthens enamel, prevents the leaching of calcium from the body. However, if the lack of fluoride increases the risk of carious destruction of teeth, the excess leads to the development of dental enamel fluorosis.

Decreased sensation and numbness (paresthesia) of the jaw are associated with impaired function of the trigeminal nerve due to inflammation or damage. Patients may experience minor discomfort or severe difficulties with speech and chewing. More often, patients complain of numbness of the lower jaw, although similar symptoms occur in the upper jaw.

To understand why the jaw goes numb, a comprehensive examination will help. The causes of such a condition are different - from a side effect after dental treatment, to a serious neurological disease. Paresthesia usually extends to part of the tongue, lips, chin, gum, accompanied by pain, burning, discomfort.
