By David Rice, DDS. Breaking up is never easy … for anyone. It’s also not something to take lightly. I see way too many threads on social media where one thing isn’t perfect and a young dentist or dental team member is out. That’s not cool.

Tooth decay and cavities are something you are most likely to experience at any age, given the dental care routine you follow and the lifestyle you lead. Even though kids are most vulnerable to it, adults should not ignore any signs of dental cavities. Cavities, if not treated on time, can result in major oral issues and complete tooth decay. It is important to address even minor oral caries before spreading and causing massive damage.

Our incredible brains consist of 100 billion neurons to perform exquisite cognitive functions such as interpreting, predicting, and responding to relevant stimuli. But that does not make problem-solving easy, particularly when it comes to patient care. Despite the brain’s power in processing information, it takes years of medical education, training, and interprofessional efforts to make accurate diagnoses and a reasonable treatment plan for a patient.

Congress. Erosive tooth wear is an etiologic agent that causes great loss of tooth structure and affects more than 30% of the population. Traditional prosthodontic methods included the protection of tooth structure with crowns eliminating a large amount of healthy tooth structure.

As the saying goes, all that is old is new again. While the tooth gem phenomenon was popular back in the early 2000s, it has now resurfaced and is gaining traction among young people. Tooth gems are small jewels that are bonded to the tooth surface. The intent is purely esthetic, and for some patients, the more bling, the better. Patients can choose from temporary tooth gems that are applied via etching gel, or a more permanent delivery that requires drilling into the tooth surface.
