I’ve learnt from living a long life that the body is so resilient despite years of abuse. Today in my 50’s I’m much healthier weight wise, metabolic blood work wise and my gums and teeth are much better than in my 30’s and 40’s. All it takes is some disciple and consistency.
I'm obsessed with your channel! I've even told my dentist and hygienist about it, and they were very impressed with my newly acquired dental knowledge!
My dentist too! More people need to know about all this free information!
@@Allan837 I tell everyone about this channel. It's so helpful and informative!
@@kaye-86 same lol
my gums were in *terrible* condition until last year after years of neglect I had tons of tartar, they cleaned that away and they went progressively deeper with the cleaning in 3-4 frequent appointments. I kept up with proper home care and my gums are tight, pink, and not bleeding anymore. Even my bloodwork got a bit better now that I don't have constant inflammation in my body.
keep up the great work!!! wishing you continued dental health!
@@TeethTalki suffered gingival attection please guid me what should i do
hi, how did u stop the bleeding
I got a waterpik and worked my way up from it's lowest setting to the highest. I also floss with a flosspick because I'm a bit clumsy to use the regular one. It did bleed for a while but if you keep at it and you're thorough the bleeding eventually fades because you get rid of the infection. That being said some people need more regular cleaning at the dentist that cant be avoided. They clean you up real nice and then you try your best to keep things neat and clean and eventually there won't be bleeding.
@@lajospapp258 thank you, i currently cant afford a water pick so i use regular floss that i poured oregano oil on because it's good for the gums, and i use the thera health oral health mouth wash, i recently started dabbing a little clove oil to my gums. From when i found out i had gum disease to now i would say the bleeding has gone down significantly, but there are two teeth that have really puffy gums that have a drop of blood that comes from flossing, so i can only hope i get to your stage
You and your videos have helped me improve and save many of my teeth! Thank you for what you do! I
keep up the great work!!! sending you positive toothy vibes :)
Your channel is so genuinely informative, appreciate your help!!
thank you for watching!
Have you done or would you be willing to do a video on how to take care of your dental tools (e.g., toothbrushes, water pike, tongue scrapers, retainers/night guards, etc.)?
yesss! here's some of my vids on caring for my dental tools: ruclips.net/video/sMoi6laLS8A/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/8PEaKmSRBis/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/VvPbOUpyi3s/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/rhmE1C9zQAg/видео.html :)
@@TeethTalk These three videos were great! Thank you!
I had gingivitis and bleeding gums before getting root planing and doubling down on my oral care including brushing and flossing twice a day. Haven’t had any bleeding for the past 7 or 8 years and my dentist says my gum recession issues have significantly improved. Twice a year visits to the dentist for regular cleanings also help. Recently invested in an electric toothbrush but haven’t gone to a water pik yet. The flossing seems to be good enough. Bleeding gums are not normal so get serious about taking care of them and your teeth.
Is your gingivities recoverd?
Is your gum recover? Please tell i also suffere gingivities
@@sobiakhan1042 Gingivitus is probably the mildest stage of periodontal disease, bleeding swollen gums. I had a slightly more advanced version with gum recession (dentists measure the amount of recession in your gum pockets, normal is 1-3mm, I had some 4’s and 5’s and even a 6). I think gingivitus is totally reversible. If you have a more severe case with gum recession and bone loss then obviously that can’t be totally cured, bone loss is bone lost, but you can always certainly improve your condition. Definitely go see your dentist and see what can be done. Hope that helps, good luck.
Your channel is so informative! I like how easy going you are yet you share important information for all issues that may occur. Thank you Whitney!
means more than you know! thank you for following along!
it's true, my gums used to bleed constantly. i started flossing every day and they never do, dentist said my gums look better than all their other patients and i just floss while i drive with the little picks. i did get a waterpik too though but that's really recent. that's really quick and easy to do before bed.
Flossing while driving? Idk why that made me laugh and makes me a little nervous 😅
Whitney, Thank you so much for convincing me to purchase a water flosser! Wow 🤩 what a difference! It’s like been only been two weeks but it’s made to my gums look amazing 🤩 Context: For 6 years I had a front crown with a bit of inflammation/shading on the gum line and its looking 50% better almost back to pink in two weeks! ✨
You're AWESOME!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO, THE INFO, THE CLARIFICATION, KNOWLEDGE!!!!!!!!!!
thank you for watching and commenting kind!
Any advice on ppl with bone loss to keep gum healthy, I'm doing routine check up with D.H
As well change tooth brush got partial as well would help ppl that there is hope in them with bone loss ,I've never had this but its scary and mental hurtful in thoughts but could you give ppl more advice on bone loss ty love your channel send love peace and teeth..Im your Day 1 Fan 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Mississippi ❤you
I want to say, I'm with this person!!!!!!! For ppl with periodontal disease, we need to know what do do to help us keep our teeth and not fall into prematurely losing them any more than what we will due to it being out of our control.
It amazes me how interdental brushes are never mentioned. Can you tell me why you recommend string floss & water floss but not interdental brushes?
She didn't mention them in this video but she talks about them a lot, overall.
yesss! I think interdental brushes are great! but for the purpose of this video -- I was focusing on home care tools that directly help with gingivitis symptoms specifically (such as swollen, red bleeding gums). Although, yes -- interdental brushes can help, as well! I just usually recommend them for patients with full out gum disease, bone loss, or even for those with healthy teeth who prefer not to floss. Dentistry is based on the individual -- so generalized videos like this, are in fact generalized. But, definitely interdental brushes can be a great option to prevent gum disease, as well. The more gum stimulation -- the better. Here's my videos more about them: ruclips.net/video/qnBXFk3oawU/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/0ExqfpbbfnA/видео.html
Is it as effective to use the super sensitive mode on electric toothbrushes? I feel like it's not doing as much as the normal mode.
What do you think of Stannous fluoride toothpaste, Whitney? I’ve been using it for several days now since my dentist told me I have gum recession and I feel like it’s helping my gums! TIA! 😊
You need to floss to help with gum recession!
stannous fluoride is great as remineralizing tooth enamel and preventing sensitivity. it can also help manage, prevent, and treat gingivitis because of how effective it is on plaque biofilm levels (it actually interferes with the plaque on a molecular level). however, toothpaste alone won't replace the mechanical motion of brushing and flossing. so keep up the great work of manual removal, in addition to your toothpaste! you got this!
@@TeethTalk Thank you so much!! Appreciate all the useful info you provide in all your videos!! 💕
Hi Whitney do you have any suggestions for affordable water flossers? This video was very informative thank you
thank you for watching! I have different price ranges of products in the description box. I would say this is the most affordable one that I recommend: www.burstoralcare.com/product/toothbrush?coupon_code=VYUADG hope this helps!
Thank you so much!
I do all of these except the water flosser. I do want to invest in one. My dad loves to talk about genetic history of “bad gums” running in our family, but I refuse to fall prey to that.
I have one trouble spot w my gum line between 2 teeth. My dental hygienist has pointed it out but she’s stumped bc I don’t bleed anywhere else. And I floss the same there but it stays irritated.
The gum brand gum stimulator (used gently) is helping, plus a salt water rinse after.
Should you use the regular floss or the water floss first, or do you do them at different times of the day?
Can Invisalign alone cause gum recession, the gums on one of my teeth has receded a little but this never happened before I started Invisalign
Apparently invasalign can contribute to gum recession, but. it's probably not the only thing going on.
Hi i am from India. I recently got ceramic braces for my overjet..and i have periodontitis 1st stage i guess...i am doing oil pulling..with coconut clove oil and using warm salt water with alum and gum paint which consist tannic acid alum and other ingredients.. any more tips for me..
Even with perfect hygiene I have these issues, could it be due to a medical issue?
So I have some recession but only on a few of my teeth. I do have crooked teeth, I grind in my sleep due to stress, and I tend to brush and floss a little aggressively at times without realizing it. And I hear some people say your gums can grow back and I hear some say they can’t. So my overall question is, you said they can grow back to an extent. What did you mean by that? Btw love your Chanel ❤️
overall -- if there's bone loss, they can't grow back. but! if the gums are only pushed back due to plaque/bacteria/buildup, then it is possible that they will look more full again (in a sense grow back) once the debris is removed from the teeth. it really just depends on the severity and exactly what the cause is. hope this helps!
@@TeethTalk aw man, I’m screwed lol thank you very much, it did help 👍❤️
A certain social media dentist is telling people they don't need deep cleanings. I canceled my appointment 3 months ago and regret doing that. I have a deep cleaning on my wisdom teeth this week and one other appointment for two back molars next week Once that is done I'm making sure to focus on those areas. I'm also using Closys toothpaste with the Ultra Sensitive unflavored Original Closys mouthwash as I saw some good studies showing an average of 3.5 months in pocket reduction by 1. The active ingredient in that is stabilized Chlorine Dioxide and it's alkaline. I'm hoping that in a year I'll be back to 2's and 3's on the pockets. Taking lots of xylitol too.
Thank you for this video, I have mild gum recession, when I went to the dentist, they said I needed braces, but my insurance is screaming for it's life.
Nobody cleans their teeth better than I do, yet I have gum recession. All my life I've had cleanings every 6 months. I've spent so much money on my teeth w/bridges crowns and recently 2 implants. I floss daily and use dental picks & proxy brushes . My dentist offered a nite guard which I turned down because I didn't think I could sleep with one, but maybe I will try one that you mentioned. Hope it helps. Thank you !
ask for the smallest one possible! it will be easier to get used to it! I'm so used to sleeping with a night guard now that I can't fall asleep without it :)
@@TeethTalk OK, thanks !
Same with me 😢😢
Would therabreath healthy gums oral rinse help ?
yes! mouthwash can be used as an addition to your oral hygiene routine! however remember that proper brushing, flossing, water flossing, etc is always the most important -- and the mouthwash can be added for additional benefits. here's my video about that specific therabreath product: www.tiktok.com/@teethtalkgirl/video/7355604877910756650?_r=1&_t=8mPL87Ccvja hope this helps :)
Whitney, have you ever spoken on using a diluted bleach rinse ? I understand it’s been known about since the 7os n is a fantastic way to improve gums, reduce inflammation, kill plaque n bacteria n improves gum pockets I’ve seen a few videos about it from dentists n other hygienists. Yet, I’ve never heard it from any dental professional I’ve been to over the past 40 yrs.
I’d like to see you speak on using a diluted bleach rinse. Thank you.
Hey i have some slight mobility of tip of gums between teeth . It slightly moves when i use toothpick or toothbrush
Or how about eliminating the infamous cause of plaque? Biofilm. Using vigorous swishing of salt water or mouth wash could help a lot.
Biofilm on your teeth, composed of bacteria and their secretions, is constantly forming and adheres strongly to your teeth, gums, and tongue. Swishing with salt water can't effectively remove it because it lacks the mechanical action needed to disrupt and break up this sticky layer. Brushing and flossing are necessary because they physically scrub away and dislodge the biofilm, ensuring thorough removal and maintaining oral health. However, warm salt water is great for soothing sore gums!
@@TeethTalk - I see, Is there any kind of subtance that can invade the pores in the teeth and eliminate that film forming bacteria? There must be a solution that can get in as deep as the bacteria does. Perhaps some kind of antibiotic?
I love how you never give up on us! 🪄 ✨ 🦷
I had gingivitis because I stopped brushing with an electric brush and switched to a manual one because my gums were sore. My NHS dentist told me my gums were fine, and the periodontist said 76% of my mouth had gingivitis. Does this sound like negligence?
Perhaps the head of your electric tooth brush was too hard, perhaps try a soft one with a pressure sensor.
@@latristessdurera8763 I was using one. The soreness was from the gingivitis that the dentist missed.
I just ate on a buffet and felt something sharp between my teeth and I thought I had some food stuck. After I arrived home I discovered that it was tartar falling off
Peace love teeth
:)
I have a permanent retainer behind my teeth. Can I use a electric brush then?
yep! electric toothbrushes are great at cleaning teeth, especially with permanent retainers and braces. hope this helps :)
Are there any other supplements or products we can add to our dental cleaning routine to aid in the chance of helping our gums grow back?
Co enzyme Q10 is really good for gums
I have recession and a electric toothbrush is way to rough on my gums.
Buy a circular rotating one
Can the over brushing recede the gums?
depends what you mean by over brushing :) here's my "over brushing" videos and "recession" video that should help explain: ruclips.net/video/ncmR6BR9Mlo/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/SOcTUCUX-zk/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/jAsNJcb4iag/видео.html
i referred a patient here today. hope they see this video
thank you for referring!
I actually found my gums were bleeding because of the toothpaste i was using! Ever since i switched, bleeding stopped!
Remember what works for others may not always work for you!
Can proxy brushes replace string floss? I can’t floss with string for the life of me plus it scares me knowing it slides underneath the gum >_
my bruxism is laughing.. 😬😅 i tried swishing coconut oil in my mouth (oil pulling), then all the skin started sloughing off, so not doing that again.. i have accepted my fate..😷
There’s like a hole at the top of my front teeth, I wonder if it’s because it’s receding? I had it for a few years and want it gone ;/
it might be an abfraction. sometimes they will be considered tooth decay -- depending on how deep the hole is. best advice is to schedule an appointment at your dental office for an exam. hope this helps!
Why should we pick hard plastic and not soft plastic night guards??
the soft is usually made to be used as a mouth guard (for sports, etc). whereas the night guards are generally better to be hard -- so you're not biting and chewing on it, which would hurt your jaw more. however, it's always best to always discuss your individual dental concerns with your personal dentist. hope this helps!
What did she mean by PSA: use both? Thanks in advance
public service announcement :)
Chelsea green look a like ! 😅
Can you brush your teeth three times a day
yep as long as you're using proper technique! here's my video more about "over brushing" hope this helps: ruclips.net/video/ncmR6BR9Mlo/видео.html
Can't afford to go the dentist since 2021 when all the pricing went ballistic. How many people can afford $1200+ dental visits four times a year? So, the greedy dental Industry is going to put themselves out of business eventually.
We shaving gums out here
I should’ve married a dentist
Your Pretty Self 🥴🥳
